Question re Facebook

[Missatkins]

Hi all,

Apart from MN, I don't do any social media. However, I'd like to sell some stuff and don't want to use Ebay so someone has suggested Facebook Marketplace. My question is : if I sign up, will my phone/email contacts be notified that I'm now on Facebook? Thanks in advance

Not automatically but you will be suggested as someone your friends might know. If you really want to do it anonymously you could ask someone to sell them on your behalf? Or have the most simplest of profiles - no photo etc. Even just use your first name then initial?
