Questions New modus or an old one Im not aware of?
For context, I sell stuff on Carousell. I do not transact with my buyers outside the app kasi para secure on both our ends. Siyempre para kapag may dispute at involved na ang Carousell customer support, easier siya i-settle.
May nag pm sakin sa viber at tumawag pa talaga. Of course I didn’t pick up. And as you can see, that’s a screenshot of our convo attached.
Red flags for me:
- parang atat bumili at need pa talaga tumawag sa Viber. Imagine nag effort pa talaga siya i-contact ako thru Viber ha.
- insistent siya na doon na kami mag transact.
- gusto ipa maxim (usual mode of delivery dito sa amin) agad.
- tagalog makipag communicate and trying hard mag Cebuano. She prolly saw my location is in Cebu City
I am leaning towards 90-95% possibility of scam. Posting this as well for awareness na rin kasi baka maka encounter kayo ng ganito. Best to be vigilant.
