Submit Any Scam

Description :

A fraudulent ad appeared on Craigslist for a Bobcat 873 SkidSteer priced at $1,800, well below market value. The seller only communicated by text and email, claiming the machine was already with a shipping company in Biloxi, MS, and that the transaction would be handled through eBay Motors. Shortly after, the buyer received a fake eBay invoice requesting $1,800 in eBay gift cards, with instructions to scratch the codes and send them by email or phone. The invoice promised false purchase protection and included a fake customer support number and email. Fortunately, the buyer recognized this as a scam before sending payment and avoided losing money, though their name, email, and shipping address had already been shared. This is a typical online purchase scam where scammers lure victims with low prices, then demand untraceable gift card payments.
