Ok I saw this and wanted to share with my local crafter friends. It’s some good advice. This has happened to me too many times.
So read below -
HOW TO TELL IF ITS A SCAM
Fact 1. They ask where you're located.....easiest way to tell if its a scam
Fact 2. Check their profile, they have less than 10 friends and no photos. Or no link to the profile at all.
Fact 3. They'll tell you their debit card was stolen or fraud and they "can't " buy on websites.
Fact 4......they only want to use Zelle, Venmo or PayPal. If they are telling you how to pay they are a scam
Fact 5.... they ask and show Facebook picture "Is this available or can you recreate" or "can I make a purchase. THEY KNOW YOU'RE NEW. I KNOW YOU THINK PEOPLE REALLY LIKE YOUR WREATHS BUT MOST ALL ARE SCAMS!!!
Fact 6... they get to you within minutes of posting!!!
Best advice..... tell them you only go through etsy or private website through square. They'll disappear. They dont know the difference.
Hope this helps!
Thanks
