I got scammed too! They posted a phone number which I responded to. I left a voice message to their number. I then received a text saying they weren’t able to process their payment because my account wasn’t set up yet. The scammer said she contacted customer service and someone would contact me to guide me through what I needed to do. I then received a text from someone posing to be a representative of Poshmark. Like you it looked very official. He said I needed to purchase a apple gift card and send him the code on the card so he could process the $200 payment to set up my accoun account. Once I did that the fake buyer sent a text saying she sent payment for my item. I then received a text from the fake poshmark rep saying I need to get another apple gift card for$1,000 to guarantee that I would ship the item since the item was listed for $700. That’s when a red flag went up for me. I checked my poshmark account and didn’t see a payment. Like you this was a real eyeopener! I was a new seller too. Thanks for sharing your experience!
I am so sorry to hear you got scammed Sheryl and thank you so sharing your story with me. I hadn’t realize they would use a phone number as well. This is good to know!
They tried the same identical scam with me also and it was one where they had you hit a link to accept offer and then had someone guiding you through as if you were really on poshmarks site and you aren't. What a shame
@@annasarchive. you are not alone, I felt the same way. I am sorry that you had to experience this. I hope you get a real buyer who is interested in your items soon.
