Trade me scams
It seems I just got hit with a new scam. I have items for sale on Trade Me; I just sold one on Buy Now. I saw my email notification come in.
A few minutes later, I received a trust and safety email from Trade Me telling me the buyer was not real, it was a scam, and I should not open any emails from the buyer as they could infect my computer systems. I could see an email from the buyer in my inbox; it just looked fake, so I deleted it as per instructions from Trade Me.
I just received another attempted scam, with the scammers using Trade Me to entice people to click on links. That is two attempts in just the last hour.
Be careful out there, as scams are everywhere. Also, be aware that scammers are operating together, so if you see a post telling you to contact somebody, such as scam hunters, they themselves are the scammers. Do not give any details to anyone.
