I bought a $100 Lego and they sent my package (which had a sicker not a Lego) to a different address in my town. Luckily the post office told us the new address and we talked to the person and then we contacted Poshmark and got our money back. I don’t use PayPal so it ended there
I have a closet set up on poshmark and my listings are to educate people on how to identify scam closets, how they work and how to prove it's a scam for a refund. I also sent you a message through poshmark in a bundle..
I know what they gain besides what you have listed. They make a main closet and link all their scam closets (hundreds) to the main one with a referral code. When they make the first sale poshmark pays the main acct 10.00 for the referral.. This 10.00 adds up quickly
Dang!! Poshmark really needs to take action to prevent this from happening! I will be getting a PO box this year, I've always hated the fact the my home address is on the shipping address. Thanks for sharing! Happy Holidays!!
These scammers are relentless! I created a new account on eBay to resell clothes and immediately my listings were selling or i was getting offers for more than the listed amount. After the sale I was receiving emails telling me to call their number so we can discuss payment/shipping options. Negative! I ended up deleting all the listings and going back to my original account.
Omg 😳… I been selling on Poshmark and I received an email request from a buyer requesting additional pictures to be sent to their personal email that is was such a red flag for me. Your video confirm someone was trying to obtain additional information from me. Thank you
There’s such a thing called “weight studies” Those should cover you. And you can check the weight at USPS when it ships. I do that everytime & I have turned a package completely around
Wow Faith! There is SO much information in this video. Truly one of the most valuable videos I've seen in a long time. I'm sorry you went through this, but really happy you shared it.
Ugh, I’m so sorry this happened to you and glad it worked out. What a headache! I’ve always wondered what their scam was due to the fact that the customer would have to accept the item to get their money. But now I get it. I report these people on the daily. They’re easy to spot but unfortunately create way way too many accounts at a time, no one can keep up. I’ve had them steal my listings pics, descriptions and all. It’s very frustrating!
Omg thanks for sharing this! Scammers are all over Poshmark. It's crazy! When I posted my first listing, I immediately received scam emails left and right. It's scary. How do we even know who's legit :(
I've definitely seen similar listings in the brand Birkenstock, also the profiles were literally less than 24 hrs old! So glad that you caught the scam before you lost your money. Thanks for sharing!!!
I watched your video and 30 minutes later I almost got scammed. But this was from a buyer so I cancelled the order and reported the user. Thank you for saving me!!
So I am new to Posh and have bought one item, and sold one item. I am so glad I have found your channel! I am getting a PO box asap. It has made me uncomfortable to have my name and address on the shipping label. Thank you for sharing!
I’ve definitely had people try to use my card info before and it never works for them because I keep the vast majority of my money in a different account and just transfer as needed probably pisses off quite a few scammers lol
Oh wow! That experience sounds so frustrating. I'm glad you were on top of your email and were able to cancel the Gucci order in time. I'm still trying to figure out how the scammer got your paypal info from the Poshmark purchase. That's wild.
Very helpful video, and so sorry this happened to you Faith. I appreciate you helping the community by sharing this aweful experience! I haven't been scammed on Poshmark, I have bought and sold plenty though, and will definitely be on the lookout for these scammers!! 👀
Glad you got your money back. Can’t figure out how someone having your name and address gets them into your PayPal account? I took my last name off of my Poshmark shipping info awhile back because I was thinking about how weird it is that a stranger now has my name and address
FYI - when I order anything used from eBay or Poshmark or Mercari… I start recording the video right before. I’m actually breaking the seal of the package now… Just to protect myself! I also take video right before that of the actual label so it’s very clear who it came from, and that it came to me Because of a very lease if I get scammed, I can file a police report and I recorded video of me opening the package to prove that I didn’t open it before
I likely had nothing to do with Posh. Think they tried resetting her password and figured out the answer to her security questions like "pet's name" or "mother's maiden name".
The only info I can they got for sure was your address and name from the shipping label. And I think the scammer knew the funds needs to be released first that’s why they had so many accounts more chances for someone to just accept it before opening thus making profit. Maybe you were hacked twice at same time?
This was a sad story😭. Thank God though that you were on top of it and didn't lose any money. I get scammers on Ebay every single day telling me to text me at their phone number. Super annoying and I don't know how to make it stop!
That's Happened To Me As Well If I'm Not mistaken You Can Block Those People Go To Your Sellers Hub For Ebay It Should Have A Section That Says Block or You Can Report A Buyer
I got a p.o. box to sell on ebay and they said I couldn't use it. I was told the buyer needs to feel secure that you have a real address. I talked about MY security, and they didn't care.
Wow what a crazy experience!! Thank you so much for sharing, I'm glad that you were able to get your money back and get this whole thing resolved! I've been needing to get a PO box for my business for forever now but this motivated me to do it. Definitely in January I'll get that done!
They think they get away with it from what I researched when this happened to me is they send it to your neighbors house hoping you don’t find it within the three days and that they get their money
What a story! Thank you for sharing so we all can be on alert. I use my maiden name for Poshmark. It’s a start, I guess, or maybe I’m giving even more info than I mean to? BTW, I signed up only a couple of months ago and that “Meet the Posher” is what’s automatically on the autogenerated MTP so I wouldn’t use that as an indication of a scammer. I’ve seen that same statement a bunch of times.
Oh wow! This is a new scam! Gucci is one to be on the look out. About a month Ago, I was looking for Gucci bags for my mom and I came across a closet that seemed legit. Prices seemed very reasonable. They had photos of the actual item… supposedly… and they had many listing. They promised authenticity etc. on the description. So I felt comfortable. So I added a few small purses to my bundle from this particular seller to make him/her an offer. However, As I was getting ready to make an offer to the seller , his closet suddenly disappeared. I thought the item sold before I could make an offer. I was so confused. So I tried looking for the seller closet, but I kept getting an error message. Nope, that closet completely disappeared. I immediately realize that this was probably a scammer’s closet.
My posh username has my first name and 7 numbers… I might want to rethink that. Thanks for the info! I’m always shopping lululemon on posh and I have been afraid to purchase from these inexpensive sellers with so many sizes in stock…good to know to avoid that!
Wow! Now I’m paranoid. I had a seller on Walmart that was supposed to send me a 4 ft folding table send me plastic circles- I had no clue this was a thing… I’m still fighting with Walmart - FedEx tracking shows the weight as 0.14 oz … (yes a 4 ft table I spent $40 on supposedly weighed an ounce)… I thought that was the scam but now after watching this video Maybe I need to pay attention to my charges just in case… really good info… just subscribed :-) thanks for sharing
I'm so sorry about your experience. I am happy that you were able to recoup all of your money. You are very smart and intuitive. I subbed to your channel
I have a similar experience, except I didn't buy anything. Some amazon seller stole my address and sent me a package with a cardboard too. What I think happened is that a middleman bought stolen credit cards and is using my address as a scapegoat to disguise a virtual item transaction.
Wow! I’ve never been scammed like this before but I have been scammed in other ways on PM. I was like you, wondering what the point was of this scam if they were never going to get their funds… I have heard of ppl kind of running something similar and they will send the package to an address close to the real shipping address so it will say delivered but you actually don’t get it so you miss the “acceptance” window and they get their funds.
@@yulidrke3500 maybe they keep the posh print out for them barcodes to show it was scanned and delivered and just black out a number on the address. Replace it with a different one. It's really scary. Time for a PO Box as someone suggested.
I don't know much about scamming, hence why I'm watching videos like this... 😄 BUT I just got my Husband a wallet with a "RFID Blocker" in it. Apparently RFID Chips can steal your bank information just by being near your credit cards? Perhaps there's a RFID Chip inside that piece of cardboard? It's a creepy stretch but just a thought. I'm sorry that all happened to you. ❤️
If that was the case then you could just tape the piece of cardboard to any intersection where people are waiting to cross the street and you wouldnt need to mail it to anyone
I listed a few items, somebody in Texas jumped on all the expensive items and wanted me to contact her in email, claimed she can't see the pictures, I told her the pictures display perfectly, then all of a sudden all my items disappeared? I have no idea what is going on there!
I agree, the buyers address should not be accessible to the seller. Not sure how that can be done but it needs to be. I'm disgusted with Poshmark now based on my story below. I never buy anything off of Posh from a seller that doesn't have a handful of listings and comments and activity.
I disagree … I recently had non sales within two days that totaled over 3000 dollars … all the buyers were different but two and no buyer had a pic nor history nor name other than first name and numerical name, none of the buyers would reply to my “thanks for purchasing your item will ship soon” opening statement… but after checking my labels every single buyer had the same Miami address to of all places a federal building to a security desk….. all delivered to exact same place … once delivered not one person responded … I did get paid after 72hrs but then months later all sales were charged back for stolen credit cards and my money account was stolen out of my accounts …. So yeah I should have known better and not shipped when I saw all those same addresses and no size correlation and no response and also no buyer history but … I have such standing on Poshmark that I thought they would have my back if something went wrong but that was not the case… I also believe what this seller is talking about could have also been the end goal for they got my items and I lost due to not watching addresses carefully enough . Main lesson do not sell to any name with numbers attached and that don’t respond in correct English to you after a sell. Cancel all else
I know when I lived in Massachusetts the police officer used to scan for hackers. Have you tried your local police office to see how they can help in terms of online scammers and investigations.
This is so scary and frustrating. It happened to me a while ago on ebay. Someone bought either a computer or an iphone using my account. I was able to cancel the sale and change my account details.
Thanks for sharing. So sorry it happened to you glad it was resolved. Would you think that every time someone would notice a seller like that just to block them. Wouldn’t that also keep your followers from seeing their post too. Definitely myself not a computer expert. Would love too know what anyone else thinks. We as a community should be able to stop these listings even if Poshmark doesn’t.
New to Poshmark, sold on eBay, stopped because of scammers as buyers, literally had to Go to small claims. So just stopped selling. So I have a question about selling on Poshmark. I sold a item and it says delivered , but now the seller is saying they didn’t receive it... all the other shipped items got to the people. Another buyer now has my kaftan in there own listing but hasn’t accepted the order. Anyone have any insight on this?? Thank you 🙏
I'm a new Poshmark seller and also an addict in recovery for about 3 years now so I have seen a lot of crazy stuff whenever it comes to the extra mile people will run to get an extra buck so when I got the shipping label for my first few sales, I was honestly astonished and could not believe that the buyers address was that easy to get. Here it is, thank God I had the item to actually ship but what if I didn't! Did it not have the return address? Bc mine had it on there. I'll be changing my address to a p.o. box as soon as possible!!
I know this is an old video…..the first thing that caught my attention is that you paid with PayPal. I don’t PayPal bc they can hack you. I only sell or buy to or from established accounts with a history. Glad you got ur money back tho. 🙌🏻
Wow sorry you had to experience this but thank you for sharing. So basically most shoppers use PayPal on Poshmark and that’s the hackers way to know if you have an active PayPal account when you purchased an item from them. Then they automatically receive your shipping address (billing) and I didn’t realize as a seller we have access to customers email address? I never paid attention 🤦🏾♀️
Can you tell me what i should do . The seller i bought a purse from sent my package to the wrong person ,so she contacted the person she sent it to and she said she would send it to the post office. Poshmark had made a new label with my address so she could send me my package. Well she never dropped it off and stole my purse. How do i get my money back from poshmark. They are not responding.
I think if the listing gets flagged as counterfeit, it can be deleted even if it sold. I once bought a fake LV purse on Posh. After it shipped, the sold listing was gone (as well as all of the other of the seller’s listings). I was still able to send the bag back for a refund.
I have been selling on Posh for 5 years. There is no way a seller can see the payment method of the buyer. However, if you post on your Poshmark your email like where your zip code is posted for all to see (city). However as a seller on eBay a seller can see the email, address and phone number but not one Posh.
I hope U reported this 2 Poshmark in regards to this person having varies items listed with same scammers. Thank U so much 4 this video. I know that alot of people get scammed with paypal.
I want to add that a lot of people sell fake reformation dresses on Poshmark too! You think you are getting a great deal on a dress but in reality it's something produced for Aliexpress
I bought a massage chair once and received a sheet of stickers with the tracking number the seller gave me. I had called Paypal prior to receiving the package to let them know that I thought I was being scammed because a huge chair would never be sent through USPS. They refunded my money no problem.
I just sold something to someone and the account looks super suspicious..Dealing with PM is so frustrating. I write detailed emails and they dance around in their reply never answering my original questions...
You know what sucks is you can be a posh ambassador and have brands like this you drop the price on because you just want a quick sale and people will think it’s a scam lol
I’m only halfway through your story time but something similar happened to me I sent out an offer for $200 on an item I really wanted I knew it was too good to be true a couple days later they shipped out the package and the package arrived to my neighbors house with not my name some random lady and they sent me crushed leaves
Buy and sell using a credit card. Then the bank, not you, will usually be on the hook for a scam. I never use a debit card unless I want cash back at the supermarket.
Hi I’m contacting you because I just open my Poshmark account and think I was scammed but in a different way, someone wanted to buy my stuff but they contacted me through email and sent me funds that way but it wanted all my credit card information to accept the funds. Is that how Poshmark does it when you are selling your items??
I used to shop on depop and it was very good for me but doesn’t mean there aren’t scammers, with depop your payment gets in your PayPal account as soon as you make a sale, it feels like on poshmark since they keep your money, people will scam more. And the worst with poshmark is that your address is on the package
Hi faith, I recently got sent a box from poshmark that was empty tiny box too, the seller adamantly denies it saying it was tampered with but the box shows no evidence of that. I even took a video of me opening it. How long did it take for poshmark to side with you?
I had no idea poshmark used PayPal. I did put in an offer for a Canada Goose coat, everything was exactly like you said one listing various sizes. My offer was not excepted so I went on to look for another Canada Goose coat but saw a few listed the same way photo of actual coat with various sizes. The only difference is I don’t have a PayPal account so I think they target people that payment is done with PayPal it might be one of the reasons eBay stopped using PayPal these accounts are easy for scammers to hack
I myself am not comfortable using or accepting payment from PayPal. I used my bank account, so just in case someone does unauthorized purchase, my bank will give a notification prior confirmation .
I just talked to my business Banker today, and they said never ever use your bank account for any online transactions. There is way less protection than if you would use a credit card.

Have you ever been scammed on Poshmark?
I almost got scammed the same way, but I decided not to buy it cuz it seemed too good to be true (the price).
I bought a $100 Lego and they sent my package (which had a sicker not a Lego) to a different address in my town. Luckily the post office told us the new address and we talked to the person and then we contacted Poshmark and got our money back. I don’t use PayPal so it ended there
@@Dt-zn2lx glad it ended okay!!

I likely had nothing to do with Posh. Think they tried resetting her password and figured out the answer to her security questions like "pet's name" or "mother's maiden name".
Poshmark did have a security breach a few years ago. Not sure if they could have looked up the information from that once they had her name?

I got a p.o. box to sell on ebay and they said I couldn't use it. I was told the buyer needs to feel secure that you have a real address. I talked about MY security, and they didn't care.
If you get a shipping box at an ups store it’s a normal looking address not a P.O. Box. Maybe that would work.

Dude! I hope you share this with Posh! I mean, how on earth did they get your PayPal from Posh? I’d want an explanation from posh!
This is so scary and frustrating. It happened to me a while ago on ebay. Someone bought either a computer or an iphone using my account. I was able to cancel the sale and change my account details.
Ugh such a pain to deal with!!
Thanks for sharing. So sorry it happened to you glad it was resolved.
Would you think that every time someone would notice a seller like that just to block them. Wouldn’t that also keep your followers from seeing their post too. Definitely myself not a computer expert. Would love too know what anyone else thinks. We as a community should be able to stop these listings even if Poshmark doesn’t.
New to Poshmark, sold on eBay, stopped because of scammers as buyers, literally had to Go to small claims. So just stopped selling.
So I have a question about selling on Poshmark. I sold a item and it says delivered , but now the seller is saying they didn’t receive it... all the other shipped items got to the people. Another buyer now has my kaftan in there own listing but hasn’t accepted the order. Anyone have any insight on this?? Thank you 🙏
reach out to poshmark and they should take care of it for you! They are pretty good about that stuff
I'm a new Poshmark seller and also an addict in recovery for about 3 years now so I have seen a lot of crazy stuff whenever it comes to the extra mile people will run to get an extra buck so when I got the shipping label for my first few sales, I was honestly astonished and could not believe that the buyers address was that easy to get.
Here it is, thank God I had the item to actually ship but what if I didn't!
Did it not have the return address? Bc mine had it on there.
I'll be changing my address to a p.o. box as soon as possible!!
Bro I was about to buy from someone exactly as you described near the end thank you!!!
Did you tell Poshmark about this?? That's so crazy I would be really interested to see what their response is.
I got scammed on Poshmark, when I messaged them they did nothing.
Me too! I’m beginning to believe they know the scammers exist, but they don’t care!!!!
@@gwene.4726 they’re great at helping both sides. Love them
But did the return address on the posh package and the mailing address for shoes match 👀
I know this is an old video…..the first thing that caught my attention is that you paid with PayPal. I don’t PayPal bc they can hack you. I only sell or buy to or from established accounts with a history. Glad you got ur money back tho. 🙌🏻
Any time I see a new account with no reviews no picture and order looks suspicious I reject offers and block them
Wow sorry you had to experience this but thank you for sharing. So basically most shoppers use PayPal on Poshmark and that’s the hackers way to know if you have an active PayPal account when you purchased an item from them. Then they automatically receive your shipping address (billing) and I didn’t realize as a seller we have access to customers email address? I never paid attention 🤦🏾♀️
Thanks for watching! 😊
Can you tell me what i should do . The seller i bought a purse from sent my package to the wrong person ,so she contacted the person she sent it to and she said she would send it to the post office. Poshmark had made a new label with my address so she could send me my package. Well she never dropped it off and stole my purse. How do i get my money back from poshmark. They are not responding.
I thought, that as a seller, you can't delete sold listings?
I think if the listing gets flagged as counterfeit, it can be deleted even if it sold. I once bought a fake LV purse on Posh. After it shipped, the sold listing was gone (as well as all of the other of the seller’s listings). I was still able to send the bag back for a refund.
I have been selling on Posh for 5 years. There is no way a seller can see the payment method of the buyer. However, if you post on your Poshmark your email like where your zip code is posted for all to see (city). However as a seller on eBay a seller can see the email, address and phone number but not one Posh.
I’m confused how they got your PayPal or credit card info? …
I hope U reported this 2 Poshmark in regards to this person having varies items listed with same scammers. Thank U so much 4 this video. I know that alot of people get scammed with paypal.
The hacker project shoes….just wow!
I know right 😂
Thanks for the super informative video and for all the tips! V< !
Lol your intuition was correct! I’m
So glad you got your money back! Thank you for this entertaining story 😂 and hopefully I never get scammed 😟
I’m glad I could entertain 😂🙌🏽
Did Poshmark give u back the money? I’m starting to sell and I’m so scared if buyers end up running my items or lying about it
I was just thinking of buying some winter essentials from poshmark but damn this scared me off quick
I want to add that a lot of people sell fake reformation dresses on Poshmark too! You think you are getting a great deal on a dress but in reality it's something produced for Aliexpress
YES!! Fakes on Poshmark is a HUGE problem, especially with brands like Gucci and Louis Vuitton
I bought a massage chair once and received a sheet of stickers with the tracking number the seller gave me. I had called Paypal prior to receiving the package to let them know that I thought I was being scammed because a huge chair would never be sent through USPS. They refunded my money no problem.
Glad you didn't lose any money! Thanks for watching
I just sold something to someone and the account looks super suspicious..Dealing with PM is so frustrating. I write detailed emails and they dance around in their reply never answering my original questions...
Is it common to have to add a pre-paid card on your account as a new seller? I thought this was a scam, so i didn't continue set up. "-(
You know what sucks is you can be a posh ambassador and have brands like this you drop the price on because you just want a quick sale and people will think it’s a scam lol
My mom bought my son a new Playstation in box on Marketplace and it was a box of bricks. Was so sad. Be so cautious in any buying situation.
Thank you for the info. I've seen the same kind of names on Vinted. Found it fishy.
This is concerning. Because in order to use PayPal to pay for something you need a password to login. 😨
I know right 😅
I’m only halfway through your story time but something similar happened to me I sent out an offer for $200 on an item I really wanted I knew it was too good to be true a couple days later they shipped out the package and the package arrived to my neighbors house with not my name some random lady and they sent me crushed leaves
Ugh that is so unfortunate!
Smh that’s wild idk why they think they will be paid for scamming
Crushed leaves?? Omg! 😂😂😂 people are freaking crazy
Buy and sell using a credit card. Then the bank, not you, will usually be on the hook for a scam. I never use a debit card unless I want cash back at the supermarket.
So scary! Glad everything ended up being ok
Hi I’m contacting you because I just open my Poshmark account and think I was scammed but in a different way, someone wanted to buy my stuff but they contacted me through email and sent me funds that way but it wanted all my credit card information to accept the funds. Is that how Poshmark does it when you are selling your items??
That’s for sure a scam! Don’t send your card info or the item
When you contacted Postmark, what did they say?
Ugh I’ve been meaning to get a P.O. Box ty for the reminder
I used to shop on depop and it was very good for me but doesn’t mean there aren’t scammers, with depop your payment gets in your PayPal account as soon as you make a sale, it feels like on poshmark since they keep your money, people will scam more. And the worst with poshmark is that your address is on the package
People are disgusting, I’m sorry this happened to you.
Hi faith, I recently got sent a box from poshmark that was empty tiny box too, the seller adamantly denies it saying it was tampered with but the box shows no evidence of that. I even took a video of me opening it. How long did it take for poshmark to side with you?
How can this even happen? You can’t delete a listing that was sold even after the buyer had accepted the item! Sold items can’t be edited or deleted!
I'm guessing the listing got flagged and Poshmark removed it
thanks for sharing!!!
Thanks for watching! 😊
Is there a chip planted in the cardboard?
Hello Faith, thank you for the info. Sorry this happened to you, but you found out what to do to protect yourself from scammers.
I just cancelled my order bc of this exact same!!! Louis Vuitton was way to cheap
I had no idea poshmark used PayPal. I did put in an offer for a Canada Goose coat, everything was exactly like you said one listing various sizes. My offer was not excepted so I went on to look for another Canada Goose coat but saw a few listed the same way photo of actual coat with various sizes. The only difference is I don’t have a PayPal account so I think they target people that payment is done with PayPal it might be one of the reasons eBay stopped using PayPal these accounts are easy for scammers to hack
Hmm thanks for sharing, that is so interesting! Maybe I should pay for items another way on Poshmark
I myself am not comfortable using or accepting payment from PayPal. I used my bank account, so just in case someone does unauthorized purchase, my bank will give a notification prior confirmation .
I just talked to my business Banker today, and they said never ever use your bank account for any online transactions. There is way less protection than if you would use a credit card.
