On Facebook Marketplace, a profile under the alias of Justin Westbrook was selling a lot of sports cards including this 23k Gold 1997 Fleer Michael Jordan Card that had been graded PSA10 for around $300. On 11/17/2023, I reached out to him concerning the possibility of buying it and asked if he'd consider $250 for it all to which he accepted. However, we were too far away to necessarily meet for payment, so he told me he would ship out the product early in the morning! So, I paid him $265 for the product and assumed shipping costs via Cash App to the account $Samantham704 which he claimed to be his girlfriend's account. Naturally, the following morning, I received no further update or tracking number to monitor the product I was promised to receive. Furthermore, this same Graded Michael Jordan card, included in the set, was put up for sale by the account Cardboardfanatic-ig. Curious if this was 'Justin,' I reached out to him to find that it was actually someone who had already purchased the sports card lot back on 11/03/2023. From this individual, I received the address to which he had picked up the cards from which was **** ****** ******* ********* ***** ********, as well as a description of the assumed scammer in question. He informed me that this was a white man with a buzz cut. With this, I messaged 'Justin Westbrook' and requested for a refund both via Cashapp and Messenger to which he acknowledged that I was scammed and promptly blocked me. From what I understand, his facebook alias account is still up, as well as his girlfriend's Cash App account.

After some investigation work on my part, I believe the scammer's name is Brandon Meeks. From what I have ascertained and have been told, he has a criminal background. The address provided above is seemingly his girlfriend's house.

I wanted to purchase a car and I went through Face Book Market Place and I was communicating with a lady about the car it was a Toyota Truck 2001 the truck was $800.00 and I had to send them four gift cards and each gift card need to be $200.  I asked her how do I know when will I get the car.  She sent me a text and said that eBay would make sure that I would receive the car.  I received a text message from eBay saying that they would need $1000 for insurance in order to ship the car and I told them that I was not going to sending anymore money.   I have not spoken to them since 10/23/2023.  I have attempted to get in contact with eBay but they told me to go online to file the complaint online.

I placed an entertainment center on facebook marketplace for sale for 400.00. Was contacted by man wanting to buy, said he sent the 400.00 to me through Venmo. I was trying to set up venmo account and was asked to send him 200 and venmo would release 600 to my account and I had to send screen shot as proof. Then was asked to send 300 to make my account a business account and my account would be credited 900 which I did and sent asked for screenshot. still no money in my account. The next thing they asked for was a 300 dollar gift card and I was supposed to take a picture and send. At this point I finally got suspicious and said no and took entertainment center off marketplace. I have reported this and asked for my money back, but nothing as of today.

I saw an add on Facebook for a new cologne, went to their website and purchased. They tried to charge my debit card 7 times, Bank of America called me to confirm sale, I confirmed 1 sale. After 2 weeks, their tracking system finally updated, said my package was in transit. Took another 2 weeks for the system to say ut was delivered. I reached out to them saying the product was never delivered, they told me since it's marked delivered, they can't refund me. I went to the USPS, they said the tracking number of my package was not in their system and probably fake.

Using the name of Todd Lucas selling lawn sweepers on Facebook. Through emails claims there is no stock but yet continues to advertise them for sale. As part of the scam, he sends a 2" x 3" piece of plastic so that if and when you question the lack of delivery, he says we sent you a little something in exchange for your order. The postage cost more than the piece of plastic. So far have about 6 emails. Initially offered a 5% refund, now a 10% refund, both of which I refused stating 100% refund or the two lawn sweepers ordered.

It was on Facebook marketplace. I have contacted them through email, there is no phone number. They said they would send tracking number was told On Sep 18, 2023, at 4:22 AM, [email protected] wrote:

?Hi,Sorry for keeping you waiting for so long.your order has been packed and shipped and is being delivered to its destination.

your order has been shipped, your tracking number is XXWUS0000759602YQ. It says it was delivered to Bedford MA. I believe this was a scam. They already got my money. I know it’s not a lot but it’s the principal of it all. No such tracking number. I have a few emails from them but nothing

Please check through the website: https://t.17track.net/en.

Have a good week.

Kind Regards

This scammer pretending to be a buyer, who said that her name was Clorinda Hardy, sent me a message on Facebook marketplace saying that she wished to buy a TV stand that I had for sale for $20.00. She stated further that she wasn't on Facebook and sent me a phone number, 779-234-2838, so that I could text her about the item. I did naively text this person my address and said that she could come over to buy the article. She replied that she wanted to come over in about an hour. She stated further that she heard about fake posts on marketplace and wanted to send me a code to verify "the legit of" my post, and then she would call me. I replied that I don't do links and would bring the item out to her car. She said that I did not have to click on a link, but just "show [her] the code." By this time, I knew that she was a scammer, and so I told that I was calling the police. She then stopped communicating with me.

I ordered on FB. A link/Ad that looked legit. I ordered a purple pair and a blue pair for a “deal on 2” price. Also ordered the insoles. Was to get 2 pair of socks free. Took money right away. Got the shoes 2-3 months later. Kids size-cheaply made..and not even the colors I ordered. Beyond frustrated!

I was given tracking information. LV839807832CN

I followed the package for months. I finally received this: 2023-09-15 07:41

JUNCOS, PR 00777, Delivered, PO Box -> Your item has been delivered and is available at a PO Box at 7:41 am on September 15, 2023 in JUNCOS, PR 00777.

The only problem with that is I'm not in that country. I'm in the US in IL, appx 2050 miles away. I've made several contacts with meiwang and he/she promised redelivery. This package has not been moved from its location and I've asked for a refund x4 and have been told to "be patient".

A Facebook marketplace buyer asked for my phone number and asked if they could send me a verification code for Google voice to ensure I was a real person. They then said the code didn’t work and started to ask for other family members phone numbers.

On FB they posted women's sandals with cushioned insoles, and used QVC logo to fraudulently misrepresent where they were actually from. They advertised as "designer comfort sandals. They also had photos of the shoes (the actual shoe is nothing like the photos. Obviously these are cheap "replicas" of a popular sandal sold in legitimate stores. Materials such as the shoe straps and even the foot bed are substandard. They glued a cheap piece of material on the foot bed, covering the manufacturer name and the shoe size. Making it Clear, that they are cheap knock offs!

I tried to contact at the above email with no success. Based on the pathetic "quality" of these sandals they're clearly from China, or somewhere overseas. This is a very unfortunate "lesson" to clearly check where these offers originate from.

I'm attaching all the chats we had from the beginning, which started at 9:06 am on Thursday, September 7. I found the ad on FB Marketplace and asked if the refrigerator was still available? She said yes. We scheduled a time for them to deliver, with a $30 unload fee for a total of $630. On their way to my house, she said that I shouldn't plug it in for at least 30 minutes to allow and also they would give me 3 days for a refund if it didn't work. To allow the freon or anything else to settle from being moved. So, they unloaded the refrigerator in my garage and I opened it up and looked through it. Seemed to be fine. I paid them $630 cash. The man, left me his phone number, which of course is not in service.

The number was 517-503-0066. While I was messaging back and forth with the lady I had been talking with, her name appeared as Kat Morgan. As soon as they left, she left the chat. I plugged the refrigerator in at 8:00 pm last night, placed a water bottle in the refrig part and one in the freezer. Checked it this morning and nothing had changed. it was not getting cold. So, I tried calling the number he left and a recording came on to say that the number you are calling cannot be located, please try your call again. So, now I'm stuck with a refrigerator that doesn't work and out $630. How can people go through life doing things like this to people.
