I got scammed on marketplace this weekend and am feeling really stupid and shameful about it. It was $450. I'm watching stories like this to make me feel less alone ❤ so thanks for sharing
So sorry to hear about this. It sucks and I know exactly how you feel!
Ohh I’m sorry someone was trying to scam me too right now I was trying to sell my product
@@Gboy767-o1v I mostly can't believe I fell for it!! I had no idea the scams were so pervasive on there as I'd only ever had good experiences. People really suck. But we live and we learn 😅
what did you do after you got scammed on marketplace and did you get in trouble for it.
What where you trying to buy from the person?
A valuable story to share, especially with older folks. Appreciate your willingness to do so! 👍
I think all of us can learn from this one. Hope it helps someone from having this happen to them.
Ouch man. Sorry to hear. I wish there was some sort of avenger going after these scams, especially the ones targeting the elderly in the USA. They deserve far worse than getting some parts cut off and sent to other scam centers as a warning.
There are actually some TH-cam channels that are all about going after the scammers and hacking them. Pretty interesting stuff!
There are thousands of us tracking their IPs and personal info and fighting back as well as lots of TH-camrs doing it full time.
@@alexc9434 me too bro I get scammed on 300dollars and I don’t know what I’m suppose to do?
Hell yeah $300 is a lot of money. That’s a car payment, groceries, gas, a tent to go adventure with that you now can’t. People who scam hard working people are pond scum!
Exactly!
Just lost 720 dollars to this I’m extremely stressed out and feel so lost
So sorry to hear. God Bless
That sucks...sorry to hear this. I got scammed in February and I felt like an idiot as it was something that was ridiculously low priced. That should have been enough to send me looking elsewhere, but nope! Rule #1: If it looks too good to be true, it probably is.
The good news is the transaction was through PayPal. I tried contacting the seller a few times and got no reply. Contacted PayPal and filed a claim. For whatever reason, I was expecting it was going to go nowhere and figured it was a $79 lesson. To my pleasant surprise, PayPal looked into it, notified the seller they have "x" amount of time to respond (I think it was two weeks), they didn't, and PayPal credited my account.I don't know why people hate on PayPal, they did me right!
Fellow New Jersey-an here! Headed to Worthington this weekend. Glad the campgrounds are open once again (injury limits my backpacking right now), Stokes is great, but why not keep all the other campgrounds open year-round? Have you hiked the BATONA? Is it hammock friendly?
I've had good luck with PayPal and have had 2 disputes on there go my way. I have not made it down to BATONA yet, have it on the list though.
Get to the scam part
Sorry you had an expensive lesson, as the old Roman saying goes “buyer beware!” 😞
Always, like I said, better research helps, but sometimes you’re just gonna get screwed!
Even on eBay you need to be careful. Saw a good deal but had to pass because the seller had multiple negative feedback. Even with protection from ebay, not worth the stress of dealing with what could go wrong. Hope you will be able to be refunded. If not, hope you can move on as best as you can. Hope you can get a good deal on the tent you want.
Yeah, it sucks that it has gotten this way.
People are going away from PayPal because of scammers on both sides. John sells to Marty. Marty pays through PP G&S. John ships to Marty and Marty receives it then files claim and John for not receiving product. Marty now has his money and the product and John is screwed. That's the reverse scam.
I hadn't heard about the reverse scam, but as a buyer it has always been great for resolving disputes when someone tries to rip you off or sends something different than was purchased. I had to use it before.
I got scammed on marketplace for $100. I used Paypal G&S. The scammer blocked me so I couldn't message back. I filed and got my money back. This MF texted me at 2 am talking about why you filing a report? Lol. After he blocked me he changed his location from one state to another.
then u ship with insurance and signature
I'm watching this because I just got scam in the same way. 600 lost. But a least I learned to never send money through cashapp.
I’m done with cashapp for sure! No resolution, cashapp did nothing for me on the complaint and wouldn’t let me appeal it!
So sorry to hear of your situation. I'm happy to help. To get started, send us proof/ evidence of payments with your full name. See you there!
Thank you for sharing your bad experience on marketplace cashapp
Yeah, not cool and not something I want to happen to anyone, except maybe the dude that scammed me!
This girl kept asking if I had cash app I said no! Kept saying to get one blah blah blah. I told her I knew what she was up to. I said I’d you had all this money, yet no car , no house nothing. I cussed her out and told her to get a life
Most of the times when I got scammed it was through Cash app. That's why when people ask me to send money through Cash app. I be like" Hell nah
I don't ship, sell local for pickup and do busy in person with cash only.
I got scammed by a TH-camr. I’m waiting on PayPal resolution to complete.
Just to be clear, it wasn't me!! ;)
@@SpiguyverBackpacking1 Definitely not you. The guy ghosted me on email and didn't respond on What'sApp. Tracking number still shows label created. Ordered back in January, gave him time for shipment from Europe. I got a chest rig from another guy in a different European country through Etsy with no problem.
Sorry you had those issues, it's not cool getting scammed.
Sorry you got scammed. It happens to the best of us. I hope you can get this resolved.
I'm doubtful on the resolution, but oh well, I learned!
just lost $1,200 to a fake iPhone
thought it was real and everything
turns out to be fake
sad sad day
That sucks!
Do u still have the information?
That sucks. Karma will catch up to him one day.
I sure hope so!
Ah, the curse of the switch to ground sleeping strikes again 😂
Lmao
I knew this tent thing was gonna bite me in the ass!
That sucks. This is why I don't pay for anything until I see the product in person, unless it's a business.
Not a bad policy!
man, that sucks bad. I hope things go your way. 😢
Thanks!
It really bothers me when I hear things like this that happen to good hard working people. Sorry bro. I do think its great you made the video to share with others, there are many people you can reach to warn them to be careful with these type of transactions.
Yeah, I figured my experience might be able to help someone out there.
That sucks man. People are such assholes these days...
Tell me about it!
Dang!! Sorry to hear it man.
Thanks, I appreciate it!
That sucks. I'm sorry. So many crooked people out there.
Way too many crooks!
The Internet is 30+ years old.... how do people still fall for this?!!??!
Just happened to me. Got scammed out of £110. Is there really anything we can do?
Nope, unfortunately not.
I got scammed also but I was lucky to get my money back
@@bernardalexander8487 I eventually managed to get my money back through the bank and reported the scammer to the police.
I Always file a police report. Won't change anything but I try to make scammers feel the heat.
We laugh every time someone says that 😂😂 It doesnt faze us
Your first mistake was fb marketplace. The 2nd mistake was buying stuff from that geographical area. Lots of trash lives in that area I avoid it like the plague. You prob got off lucky. Cash apps are also not a good idea cash is king. I bet that dude and his gf are on ebt and you and me are paying for their meals.
Yeah, live and learn I guess! I also bought a jeep, so I am getting good at just throwing away money!
@Spiguyver Backpacking damn I wish I thought to say the jeep part! Haha good one dude!
Sorry to hear the bad news, tell rainman to hook you up with scotty next time you need a tent, he's legit. Hope life's treating you good brother.
I’ve done a lot of deals with Scotty over the years.
Cashapp doesnt care they got their percentage. Sorry to hear this.
PEOPLE STOP SAYING THIS IS GEARED TO THE ELDERLY.
I feel your pain man they are absolutely scum bags,
The red flag was when payment wouldn’t go through sorry you lost your money but at least you have learned a lesson.
I’d never send money any other way than PayPal and if they won’t accept PayPal then don’t buy it
I mean why not use PayPal? It protects both parties right.
Gotta agree with yer first assessment....blame it on the ground dwellin. Lol
It's the damn tent, and then I tempted fate even more by attempting to purchase a second tent!
@@SpiguyverBackpacking1 gotta hang bud....hang low hang high...but hang tuff...
Why u pay for something til u pick it up?
Like eBay and a lot of other things out there, this was one where it was out of my local area and was to be shipped.
I just got scammed this way the same way but I have their information still can I still report this to authorities?
@searchmixer
Sorry to hear that that happened to me too so you’re not alone.
Hey 𝐕𝐚𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭. I am just a simple dude from Australia, but I want you to know how awesome it is what you did, and what you do. Love your work mate and God bless you for everything you do for people in the future. I was truly touched by this vid.
Can’t your bank get your money back?
They were not able to. It was a “legitimate” transaction from the app’s point of view since I authorized it.
Did you get your money back?
Nope, not at all. Cashapp was not helpful whatsoever and I will never use that app again!
can you find the messages? i archived them but i cant find them. all you did is talk about your tent
Just subscribed to your channel because of the loss you took man. Soreu for.uour loss dude. People are shitty
Did you get your money back?
Nope
Just happened to me. Very similar but with Zelle. $1600. They are out there scamming people everyday.
I’ve found the best way to identify if it’s a scam.
1st - that ask you where your located.
2nd - they won’t let you buy it in person.

Damn scammers. I was wondering about you when I shipped my hammock to you a couple years ago. Phew! LOL glad you were a fake Mark
LOL, right! Good thing I've got kind strangers to send me their gear so I don't have to buy my own! Haha!
People like that will cry the loudest when the shoe is on the other foot. Hope you get justice out of this.
I'm not holding my breath, but it would be a nice surprise!
That completely blows.😢
Yes it does! Thanks!
Damn that sucks. Yeah might want to stick with highly rated ebay/amazon sellers. Or face to face with Craig's list. I had a bad experience buying a headphone amp from a TH-camr. Lesson learned.
I'll pretty much stick to the groups and people I've already done work with!
Sry, dude...I tried to buy a tent and things went wrong before I sent money, thankfully
Glad you got out of it before you lost the money!
Thanks for the update. I have spent years buying off of e bay and never got robbed. Please go through the investigation and then lets expose this fool publicly. The Apps the social media used and shut this shit down . Im so sorry for this event. We as followers can fix it
I'm with you, I'd love to figure out who he really is and go pay him a visit!
I used to buy off of Ebay all the time. I quit because I wasn't getting some of my products and Ebay was making me file and wait and I would forget to follow up and they would dismiss it.
It happens all the time … but there are many reputable sellers that do no wrong and end up paying for others who are not . Just be mindful of who you buy from . Just keep going girl 😊
thank you for sharing!! saved me from getting scammed,
Because of you and all the guys that work for you.
Also your channel people are catching-on. Thank you and everyone involved keep up the great work you're amazing 𝐕𝐚𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭 love all you guys For helping so many innocent people.The goverment or FBI should be paying you all.
Sounds like a college kid going to school over here in Boston trying to rip people off to pay for his tuition. Hope they step up and do some investigating because if they get away with it they're sure to keep doing it
Hope he gets an good education with it! LOL
I got slammed today on market place the same way I feel like a idiot

did u ever get your money back this just happened to me i sent 150 dollars for a ps5 for shipping n i was gone send the rest when she got here to bring it to me n she scammed me i have proof too smh im so sad smh
@Joselyn Lukow wat u mean?
But where do u do it cause they told me I cudnt get it back
So sorry to hear of your situation. I'm happy to help. To get started, send us proof/ evidence of payments with your full name. See you there!
Nope, no resolution. I didn't get my money back and Cashapp was less than crap in their response to me.
@@SpiguyverBackpacking1 ur absolutely right stole all my money they did absolutely nothing on cash app smh
how did this end?
Omg i just got scammed out of $35 and $10 by two different people😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
😂😂
@@versatileduplicity9313 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Did it ever get ruled one way or another by cashapp support?
Cashapp said, no case, nothing I can do.
That sucks; I hope you get your money back. My double wall tent is the BA Tiger wall 2 person. It weighs 2.5 lbs, semi freestanding, and if you buy the footprint that adds four oz. When I got mine I paid $400 and another $70 for the footprint. I think it’s a little bs to have to spend another 70 bucks when you’re already paying $400 on a tent. That being said it’s a solid tent. I’ve been in all night rainstorms and never had any leaks.
Yeah, it is a bit of BS that it’s not included with the tent.
@@SpiguyverBackpacking1 Worth it though. You can set up the rain fly to the ground sheet without the bug net . Good way to save weight if you’re not worried about bugs.
Did you ever get an answer from the fraud report?
Yeah, they didn't do jack. They said that they didn't find anything fraudulent, personally I don't think they looked at all, that it's a standard response.
thanks for sharing Mark. until April 4th there is always a little bit of hope. not much, but a little bit. hopefully karma will catch up with your scammer
A very little bit of hope! Karma is who I'm rooting for right now!!!
I got scammed too
I lost $50 but I don’t mind I can make $50 in an hour but the fact that scum bag ppl have intentions to scam people they just bums imagine being so down bad to scam ppl

I got scammed with a puppy scam . I feel like a fool. What can I do about it
So sorry to hear that. I was scammed also but I was lucky to get my money back. Do you still have the information?

No I didn’t
dont send money over the internet you have no idea who is actually getting the money
I Got Ripped of Selling a Gaming PC I Wanted 700 but they got it for 480 I Lost 280
So sorry this happened to you.
Thanks!
Not trying to throw shade, but why didn’t you just go to the store and buy one?
I always say face to face no transfers cash on collection nothing else no way
You can get a Durston 2 person double wall for 300 brand new. Sorry that happened to you!
Sorry to hear about that. I hope all goes well.
Thank you!
As a dumb as yong mf, i fell for the old pep talk trick.
Thank you for sharing!
Sorry to hear this. This is something I've been really concerned about. Of course, it is not just on the marketplace groups. I ordered something through a cottage vendor recently (as with a bunch of people) and the vendor went under and ghosted, leaving orders unfulfilled. We still have a CC dispute open, though we think we will be OK.
Yeah, I know about the vendor issue you're talking about, sorry to hear you're mixed up in that one. Sucks!
So sad man
So sorry to hear this. If only people would do good instead of bad. What a wonderful world we would live in. Praying you get your money back.
There are a lot of really good people out there. I try to be as good as I can, karma's going to pay this man a visit!
@@SpiguyverBackpacking1Yes sir. I got scammed through cash app a few days ago and Karma is real. Little do those scammers know
I just got scammed $1700 myself....
I recommend *codacyethics* to anyone who needs help. I'm sure he will help you a lot 😎

Im not racist. But I only deal with certain colors and certain areas. Only deal locally face to face. Have a counterfeit pen and check cash first. And always pack heat!
Smart, even tho i hate racists
Yeah, me too but guess what? Facebook didn’t do a goddamn thing about it after I complaint, they still didn’t do a goddamn thing about it, so fuck Facebook marketplace
No help on this one, my biggest suggestion is to avoid marketplace unless meeting face to face.
When I sell anything I ALWAYS TELL THE BUYER CASH ONLY. AND I GIVE THEM A DIFFERENT ADDRESS MEETING AND IN MY PROFILE ON FACEBOOK I ONLY HAVE MY FIRST NAME AND NO OTHER INFO ABOUT ME OR WHERE I WORK ETC
