Some person on FB tried to sell me a video card that is priced too good to be true.
The method was that I had to click a shady link in order to pay some small fee so that the package could be sent via cash on delivery. The mailman would collect the actual sale.
Reported and blocked of course but I wanted to spread the word and remind anyone that needed reminding to be distrusting by default.
Facebook scamming, or online scamming in general has really put me off from it.
The past years whenever we tried to buy or sell anything online or via facebook that is not second hand kids clothes/toys, we only seemed to come across scammers.
For buying or selling it’s always this “ah yes but you must send some money first for transportation/insurance/import cost/export cost etc….”
​
The only legit facebook market people are generally mothers in your area doing away with the clothes and toys their kids got too big for, for 20€.
Anything else is probably a scammer
Ja vree vervelend als er per ongeluk 2 gekoopt hebdt en de winkel wil niet terugnemen want ik ticketje al wegsmijt

For items of a few hundred euro, especially small items, If you’re looking to buy and they’re looking to sell, you can also set the rules. Tell them you will meet them with cash at a public place near their location (with cctv). Any normal buyer will try to accommodate that and will be happy that they can get cash. If they ask to send by post even though they are within the same country and ask for a strange online payment (like western union) or use another app too communicate… it’s probably a scam. If it looks too good to be true… it probably is.
