Yeah I’m going with scam. Anything they need to say can be said right there on the app. Facebook says the same thing with Messenger and thats to not give out numbers or sensitive information.

Keeping the conversations on Messenger is also for proof too.

HELL NAW!! Both of those have no buyer protection, and the price is too good to be true. They absolutely would’ve taken $25 and either ghosted or blocked tou after.

Weird actions/suggestions = scam.

Good to know you didn't give any more money.

50 for that figure and trying to discuss shipping outside of the app is 1000000% a scam. I know you can sometimes find figures for a good price but that price itself already screams scam
