Scams
I love this site and believe it's an amazing place to advertise, sell and purchase items; however, are there others out there who get tired of receiving the scam text messages or emails? So far I have received three different messages from three different numbers (area codes are from Ohio, New York and Oklahoma) saying the EXACT same thing. One message came through at 5:03am, one at 11:04pm and one just came through at 5:10pm. In my ad I specifically point out that I will NOT ship and pick up ONLY. Here's how the texts go:
Texter: Do this item still available for sale in good condition? Kumho Ecsta SPT 255/35ZR20 tires on RG.
Me: Yes for pick up in KY only
Texter: Okay, how long have you own it? And I will be paying via UP bank check from my bank to you via USPS rep;y me back with your name and your mailing address to send the check out and will also arrange shipment through my shipper after you have cash at hand. Thanks
I have gotten this message from 347-741-7608 and 405-247-0896. There was another one a few weeks ago but I didn't keep the number. Is there any way to report these obvious scams to RJ and can RJ do anything since they are via text messages and not emails?
