Description

Large Facebook marketplace scam - Fake listing of a product like a refrigerator, washer/dryer, or other appliances. - Offers to deliver for $50, asks for Zelle payment up front, but then steals the money and disappears. - All from New users who signed up in 2025. Each user has one listing and no other activity. - Same scam posted across thousands of cities in the country. I estimate 100k listings across different cities and products, probably making millions of dollars. Here's an example FB marketplace filter to find this particular one: - Keywords: "Pickup and delivery is available with fees" - Price: $150 - Title: Samsung Refrigerator Example search: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/seattle/search?minPrice=150&maxPrice=150&deliveryMethod=local_pick_up&query=Pickup%20and%20delivery%20is%20available%20with%20fees.&exact=false
