Is this a scam?

1. They’ll low-ball you once you arrive.

2. Indeed, you have the problem when you arrive and they low ball… Gratis delivery because its used or other complete obvious reasons

3. Either they’ll low ball you once you arrive, or they’ll send a form ‘to confirm their payment’ where you enter your bank details and end up with no money in your account.

   People who throw 100 euros at a delivery are not people who thrift shop for used items. This is 99.99999 procent a scam.

4. They will low ball you or send you a malicious fake bank debit form (or both)

5. They could also beat the shit out of you and steal all you have with you, once you meet up.

6. If it’s too good to be true, it probably isn’t true.

7. It’s a common scam, don’t fall for it.

8. Transactions from a KBC to a KBC account are instant.

   If you have KBC, tell them they’ll need to find a KBC account holder and you only start traveling to Antwerp if the money is on your account?

   If they really need it, they will need to do some effort 🙂

   I have no experience with all the banks but I know that there are combinations between banks that will take three days to wire over some money …

   Maybe someone can confirm if you can do the same thing with Payconic transactions but in my experience, in some cases, it can also take multiple days …

9. Omgeving Sportpaleis. I wouldn’t bother.

10. There’s a shitload of scammers on 2dehands nowadays. I don’t sell anything through it anymore, it’s more trouble than it’s worth.

11. Do they have a good 2dehands profile? How many years? Rating?

    I would consider this if it was a very strong profile.

12. Omgeving Sportpaleis is in Antwerpen bekend als zijnde de kant van de Tweemondstraat en die buurt is niet bepaald een aangename omgeving. Kans is dat je daar plots vijf man rond je hebt en dat je niet enkel die telefoon kwijt bent, maar ook je huidige en de rest dat je op zak hebt.
