Ordered dresses from Facebook Marketplace and never got them

I saw these comfortable dresses advertised on facebook marketplace and one other place I can't remember. Same style, just different colors and patterns. So I ordered them. My bank statement says the transaction was on 8/29.

Well I never got them. And I didn't have any way to get ahold of anyone. No way to contact them at all. Then I started reading reviews and now I see why. Lost almost 30 dollars.

Someone on Facebook Marketplace tried Zelle and CashApp stuff

I was selling a TV on Facebook Marketplace and this person said they knew someone who wanted it. They wanted to use Zelle and told me the payment was on hold because of low usage on my end. Then they said to call the number in the confirmation text I got.

They told me to FaceTime and screenshare and open my CashApp and bank app to verify I had funds. Then they said go to CashApp and put in $19.99. I stopped right there and realized they were trying to get me to send them money so I hung up.

The numbers that contacted me were +1 (606) 854-1254 and +1 (954) 830-7975. Just hope people are careful because these scammers are getting really crafty.

Seller on Facebook Marketplace took my deposit and blocked me

I was looking at a couch on Facebook Marketplace and started talking to a seller named Hannah about it. We talked about delivery and she said she needed a deposit to mark the listing as sold because other people were asking about it too.

So I sent the deposit. After that she blocked me on messenger. That was it. Lost $70 and never got the couch.

House rental listing on Marketplace took my application fee

I was looking for houses for rent on Marketplace and seen a house I liked. I text the people and he glamed up the house and price which peeked my interest more.

I then went and met him at Walmart and gave him my application fee and application I printed out that he sent to my email. After that I never heard from him. His phone was (302) 867-4944 and he said he was in Gale, DE.

Paid for jewelry on Facebook and got nothing

I saw this ad on Facebook for jewelry at a really low cost. It seemed like a great deal so I went ahead and ordered. The price was too good to be true I guess. I paid $73.98 for it.

After I paid, I never got any tracking number or anything. I tried to contact them at the number they had, (609) 858-9799, but nobody ever answered. The page is still up I think but they just took my money.

It's been a few weeks now and no package ever showed up. I just want my money back. This was supposed to be a gift but now I'm just out the cash. I should have known better.

Boat engine purchase fell through after payment issues

I was trying to buy a boat engine off Facebook marketplace. The guy seemed legit at first. He suggested a wire transfer, but that didn't work for me. Then I tried my debit card, no luck with that either.

So then he wanted me to buy cryptocurrency for the amount plus shipping. I spent like two hours on my phone trying to figure that out. Finally I just wrote "I guess I'm not getting an engine." He had an address listed in Ohem, UT. Didn't lose any money but it was a big waste of time.

House rental deposit gone after rude texts from Jeffry Edward

So I found this listing on Facebook Marketplace for a house for rent in Port Orchard. The guy said his name is Jeffry Edward. He told me to send the deposit and said it was refundable. I have messages from him saying he would give it back if I sent 70. I'm so broke because of that.

My mom has cancer and I really needed this place. He was so rude about it too. I just want my money back. There was no agreement signed or anything. He wouldn't even give me his address. His number is (408) 381-6974 and he's supposedly in Randle, WA. I lost 600 dollars to this. Please help me get it back.

Someone on Facebook said their daughter works at Sam’s Club and had a deal

It came up on marketplace on Facebook and someone said their daughter works at Sam's Club and they had a deal going if you did a survey you get a playhouse waterslide for only 9.99. It had a lot of comments where people did it and receipts so it looked to be true.

Then after I did it I had money missing a few days later. I know it was the scammer that did it. I lost about 100 dollars.

Dishwasher I bought on Facebook Marketplace doesn't work at all

I bought a KitchenAid dishwasher from a guy on Facebook Marketplace for $325. He was in Buford, GA. I paid him and brought it home.

The panel lights up and blinks but nothing else happens. It just sits there. I tried everything I could think of. The guy won't reply to my messages now. I don't even have his real name or anything just the phone number (770) 843-1046.

Scammer on Facebook Marketplace asked for Zelle payment and extra $150 for "insurance"

I was trying to buy something on Facebook Marketplace. The seller told me to pay through Zelle, which I did. Then right after, they asked for an additional $150 for what they called "insurance purposes." That was the big red flag for my son. I realized it was a scam. The person's phone number is (213) 659-1410 and their email is [email protected]. I lost $225 total.

Ordered jackets from a Facebook ad, got charged and nothing came

I saw an ad for jackets on something like Facebook Marketplace. I clicked it and the jackets were even cheaper than the ad showed. I picked about 80 dollars worth of jackets and tops. They discounted it further and took off like 221 dollars or so. The jackets were only 4 or 5 dollars each. I am so dumb!

I paid 59 dollars. I never got any tracking info or anything. No jackets ever came. There's no website to check on the order, no customer service. I just got charged and that was it. The whole thing feels off now.

Ordered a mystery palette from Facebook Marketplace, got cheap headphones instead

I saw an ad on Facebook Marketplace for an Amazon Warehouse returns super giant Mystery palette. It was listed for $59.99 plus tax, so I paid a total of $68.99. The seller was supposedly from Kent, WA.

What I got in the mail was just one cheap pair of headphones. I looked them up and they're listed on Amazon's site for $14.99. It's not even close to what was advertised.

I'm planning to file a dispute through PayPal for this. I'm posting this here too, hoping it might stop someone else from making the same mistake I did.

Sent a deposit for a gazebo and now my credit card has fraud

I saw a post on Facebook Marketplace for an outdoor gazebo for $185. The seller asked for a deposit to hold it, so I sent $20 through Zelle. They also asked for a screenshot of the payment details, so I sent one but I blocked out my account number.

Now my credit card has all this fraudulent activity. My credit card company actually called me because someone tried to get $1000 from my account. I had to close all my accounts at my bank because of it. I'm also getting a ton of spam calls now. This all started right after I sent that deposit.

Paid for a house rental on Facebook but never got the keys

My friend saw a house for rent on Facebook Marketplace. She contacted the seller and they even gave her a code to go look inside. They told her to pay an application fee, a deposit, and the first and last month's rent to get the house. So she sent all the money, it came to $4547. She paid through Apple Pay and Cash App to different accounts they kept sending.

Now the person just keeps stalling and won't give her the keys. We have the phone number, an email, and an address in Gardendale, Alabama they used, but nothing is happening. She paid all that money and has nothing to show for it.

Sent $300 for a puppy and got nothing, no refund

I saw this cute puppy for sale on Facebook Marketplace. The person had pictures and said the total was $700. They told me to send a partial payment of $300 first, and the rest would be due when the puppy was delivered. So I sent the $300.

Literally two minutes after I sent the money, they texted me saying I had to pay the full remaining balance before they would deliver anything. That felt wrong, so I immediately said I wanted my money back and that we were done. They never refunded my $300. I never got a puppy either. The contact was through a phone number (708) 506-1624 and an email [email protected], saying they were in Chicago.
