Hi all.
If you are selling any items on Marketplace be aware of anyone suggesting that they will send a courier with the payment and collection, they will send an email asking you to make a payment for the insurance of the cash.
This could be any courier ie, DHL, UPS.
These have been confirmed by UPS THAT THEY ARE SCAMS.
Take care all.
Thanks for the warning ⚠️

Yes I had this before Christmas when I had a few things for sale, they were very insistent, I even had one that was asking me to pay 50euros for the insurance and they would refund me when the item arrived in the post. Seller beware.

I had the same. They wanted 50€ insurance for an item costing 10€ to be sent to France. When I refused they said they have set it all up now with the carrier and would report me for not paying.
