Beware Posh Sellers - The "Email Me" Scam

Courtesy of post from: https://tools.oneshop.com/blog/poshmark-scammer The “Email Me” Scam If you ever get a comment from a potential buyer asking you to move your conversation to email or on any channel outside the Poshmark platform, don’t respond. Instead, report the comment immediately using the action menu button. This is a classic red flag. A scammer may try to convince you to communicate on email or Facebook / Instagram Messenger one reason or another (e.g. “I’m interested to purchase this item from your closet, but for some reason, my Poshmark account is acting up. Please email me to close off this transaction!”) and lure you in with an irresistible offer. But remember that once you take your conversation somewhere else, you are automatically stripping yourself off Poshmark Sellers Protection. In doing this, potential buyers also lose their rights under Posh Protect. No legit, sensible consumer would want to do this. On the other hand, scammers would love to lead you somewhere else to perhaps steal data from your password or credit cards, exhort money from you, or another similar modus operandi.
