Bloody Facebook marketplace scams

Im just trying to sell my travel system. Ive had 3 scam messages about using paypal or sending couriers to come and collect. Its so frustrating. Ive tried joining private groups but i only use facebook for marketplace so have no friends or info on there so get rejected from them. Just a rant 😤

I never use FB market place. It's ripe for scammers.

And that's why I don't use it

Ive used market place a lot lately to buy and sell. The scammers dont tend to bother with lower price, mundane items. If you are selling a higher value item you can put something in your description about not paying by paypal or using couriers so it puts them off.
