Been trying to sell my iPad for a while now and every enquiry seems like from fake accounts. Everyone asks if I can do PayPal, and it just seems super sketchy everything from their accounts to interactions. Do you know if they can scam me with PayPal? Like I don’t get why everyone can just do that. Any advice welcome!
It's scam. Only do cash or sell via marketplace
Do you know they scam with PayPal??
Test it out. Provide an email. They will send you a fake PayPal email of payment. I tried it
Swappa is a good place to sell iPads/iPhones. Cash only for FB marketplace
I’m in the uk, I don’t think it’s very common here
Please collect cash
Mercari is usually better for buyers, alongside there being some scammers, but overall I've had decent experiences with them
This is a straightforward scam. Either they're sending you to a fake PayPal site to try to trick you into entering your password so they can steal your real PayPal account, or they'll just file a dispute with PayPal claiming the iPad they bought off you was defective and in most cases Paypal will side with the buyer and return their money.
Ugh was getting a feeling of something like that might happen, thanks!
Better safe than sorry. Don’t do anything you’re not comfortable
You got chatgpt trying to get your iPad lmao
Probably 🫠
What about eBay? Do people still sell on it? Seems like there must be a better way to sell things, I’m dying here
eBay takes a huge percent in terms of fees.
Too many scammers on FB Marketplace. I just ignore the ones asking about paypal, you should only take cash
