On facebook, someone has set themselves up. Offering Payment Plans.

They offer a range of good, from clothes, furniture, games, tv's ect.

You pay her weekly, and when your done. She delivers the goods to your house.

She say's "Im not a business, or a shop. I just want to help people".

She has nearly 200 people on her list already, and lots of enquiries about goods. She deals with all questions via message not on her wall.

She did tell me her 1st name, and what part of Wigan she is from. Wouldnt want to say on here though.

We have all heard of knock off Tv's, Laptops, Game Console and Clothing. But really knock off Fridge Freezers,

Looks like she has changed her name this morning, and I have been blocked.

Logging on from my son's fb page, the page appears to be blank now. Wonder whats happening??

There fecking off these pages, just found at least another 2 pages related to wigan, 1 in Milton Keynes and 1 in hastings.

However well intentioned some of these people are there will be just as many who are not. Sad

You haven't considered reporting them?

I'm glad you're reporting her- it sounds totally bent. I'd hate to think of some one like that preying on the desperate or guileless

Someone I vaguely know has one of those pages on FB. She's nice enough, and genuine, but I can't understand the mentality behind it all; surely people would achieve the same thing by saving up weekly before buying their item rather than paying her for weeks before they receive their item? I guess those that lack intelligence will fall for it and see it as a good thing.
