Got a transaction where the buyer wants me to pay his shippers, and has included the money in the payment to me. I then got a phishy email from <removed> explaining that I need to buy a gift card and send them a pic. This is garbage, right?

Hi @Pawneescout,

 

Thank you for your post! You're absolutely right to be cautious. What you're describing is a common scam. I would recommend not to proceed with this transaction and keep up the good work on questioning anything that seems too good to be true, too risky, or otherwise out of the ordinary.

 

I hope this helps!
