Scammy Scammers.

I went onto fb, looking for a modular sofa,...if you go onto marketplace, there are hundreds of sofas etc, and scammers, a company asking me to put a £15 deposit down, yeah right, no chance, so I replied, £15 deposit no way,I also typed is this a scam? So the general public could see my reply, I haven’t heard a peep back,..I also apologised if this was legitimate, still no word.

What do you think?

Which marketplace? If eBay, then you'll be protected providing you don't go off piste.

It’s a group on fb,Dex, nothing to do with eBay,...I know about eBay, you aren’t protected on marketplace.

They were advertising in my small town, then when I asked him if I could view it, he said he was based in Bradford, what’s that about then, I don’t get it?....why advertise saying you are in Bordon?
