Urgent ! Vinted Scam

My Vinted recommended items were flooded this morning with high end items for ridiculously low prices eg. Mulberry bag £6.80. Many different sellers with several things in common...no reviews, multiple items uploaded overnight, location Middlesbrough, all had 6 or 7 letter/ number random names, most of their items eg. Loungefly bag were listed in the category Firepits. I believe they are all the same scam seller. Please let anyone you know be aware. There must have been at least 10 or 20 seller names each with up to 70 or so items. I've tried to report them but there were just too many. 1 Mulberry bag was sold before I could even finish reporting it. I tried to fill in a report items form on Vinteds help section but after 3 attempts gave up so have decided to warn people on here.! Please don't get caught out by them.

I also has something similar last night. A tiffany necklace, brand new with packaging for £7, its now sold so I hope they dont get scammed. I dont know what sellers get from this though as they dont get the money until they post the item and then the buyer can report for fake items anyway.

This is the third or fourth thread about this exact issue this morning.

I can't tell if Vinted are being flooded at of MN is being flooded with posts highlighting cheap Mulberry bags (every thread contains that detail).

It happens overnight every night. In the morning vinted gets them shut down. Read on here it was for the postage cost somehow. V annoying if you are an insomniac shopper like me!

Why would anyone buy a “mulberry” bag at under a tenner. There’s no chance of that being anything but cheap tat
