Scam lol.

 

[Maundie]

There's a few red flags there for my liking, I would certainly not purchase from them as they are extremely defensive which screams scam to me straight away

 

[arknor]

if its an amazon distribution warehouse then surely the items also on their website and fulfilled by amazon?


"hello, I am a website store"


ask if it's a bot written by someone in Romania or india.


"Do You need a website store link to view product details?"

they definitely aren't English

Obvious scam

It’s just not natural, I’d be running a mile.

scammers should start writing in regional dialects even with spelling errors people would trust it more.

 

[Gray2233]

Looks dodgy as hell to me, especially after seeing that profile.

Nothing screams trust and an upstanding member of society like “bruv”

I politely declined an invitation by telephone to discuss my tariff with the company that supplies me. Or stated that they represented this company.

Unsolicited phone conversations are a no no. I will initiate a chat and record it if I decide to explore such a topic.

The thing is to be polite, explain I don't engage with cold calling and suggest that I will explore their web offerings through normal channels.

No idea, I bought one from Amazon before I posted this.
I thought more than one person would have got the OCUK Meme "I am a website store"
How wrong was I?

They still haven't sent a link.

Ask for the link so we can see what the scam was. Either a fake website or it is just a marketing front for a Chinese outlet.

I have done but once again no reply for many hours.
They could have got wise to me.

No reply after the first msg then I would have moved on.

Could be legit but I always default to 'if it's on FB market place it's a scam'.

Always assume scam and prove otherwise.
-will they collect in person/allow you to.
-will they ask for PayPal
-does communication look "artificial"
-what is their FB profile like


Looks dodgy to me

I've bought loads of stuff off Marketplace and never had a problem, usually cash on pickup.
I posted it because of the "I am a website store" comment and their profile is well dodgy.

This is the item - https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/587778790321861

I've already bought one off Amazon now.

This is a scam

I did, bought another before making this thread.
Once again I thought more people would have picked up on the "I am a website store" - I failed miserably.

I don't recall that meme either. Got any link so we can refresh our collective memory?
