Scammers
Hi All,
As a frequent buyer on Fb market place. I have noticed that scammers have quadrupled in all areas, but a particular new focus area seems to be sofa’s or lounge suites. So if you are using this platform please always check the sellers profile first!- if the profile was activated in 2025- then it’s 99 percent a scam!
It’s horrible that honest people are being targeted this way! So if you are buying from Facebook market place always check the profiles activation date and the sellers friends list. They will generally have zero friends and the profile would have been activated in 2024/ 2025 - You can then report the SCAMMER in action!
Hope this helps - Keep alert!
