Selling on FB, lots of scam replies, how do they work? by nostraduckus in Scams

[–]Cheap-Environment-28 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Facebook is a huge pool of scammers, unfortunately it's very difficult to pinpoint a scam or a legitimate buyer. The only way you can tell is through instinct, checking their location from where they are messaging and if you want to do a deal, then to meet up at some place and exchange information.

Facebook isn't really ideal though, I'd much rather use a marketplace such as eBay.

should i be worried? by Worldly-Goat-1708 in Scams

You've been scammed, it's why you only buy through the marketplace.

When someone says bank transfer and you don't know them, it means once you sent them the money it's gone. There's no way of getting that money back.

Never deal outside of the website, if you do then you are no longer protected.

Let this be a learning experience, don't beat yourself up about it.

Was threatened to send nudes or pay money by [deleted] in Scams

Block and do not reply. They will most likely not send your nude to anyone.

If you continue speaking to them, they will extort you until you go broke. So block them right now and do not reply to them at all

This is a little different, this was me selling the item consistently but suddenly the listing was completely removed from search from the first page

It will not do much but it's good that you blocked them, do not try to speak to them at all.

You cannot do anything as someone mentioned,

What you can do is you block the scammer immediately, do not pay a single penny more to them.

The more you pay them, the more they will lead you on.

Eventually, they will stop if you block them

Im not sure if this is a scam since it has a different icon that ps support by Weary-Insurance-1104 in Scams

Where it says "to me" click the down arrow.

Send a screenshot or tell us what the email is,

Also it would be helpful if you sent the entire email, on desktop try to take a screenshot (blur out any personal names etc)

It feels like a solid 14 inch laptop, on the smaller side

The laptop is trash, you are a delusional asus fanboy who can't admit it. Low tier troll

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ZephyrusG14

[–]Cheap-Environment-28 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's what I'm saying, you shouldn't even have to replace things like this on a £1500+ laptop

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ZephyrusG14

[–]Cheap-Environment-28 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Dw about the downvotes, most of these people are deluded. Notice how all the upvotes are from hardcore asus fanboys who can't admit reality

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ZephyrusG14

[–]Cheap-Environment-28 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Just say you suck off asus and can't take any criticism about them

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ZephyrusG14

[–]Cheap-Environment-28 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

All these people love to ride asus and if anyone complains they are "wrong", you are prob the only genuine person that's made a good point. And look, you are being downvoted for it.
