I’d like your opinions and experiences.
whatare these people doing?
I see ads all the time for ridiculous low prices, and I’ve been told it’s so they can “steal” your email address or phone number.
I don’t get it. Are they compiling lists to sell to others who bombard us with ads? What about our phone numbers?
I was interested in something recently that was priced low, low enough that I thought it could be one of the phony ads. BUT I emailed anyway. A day later with no response, I texted. I got a text back asking for my email address so he could “send more pics and details”. I responded that I’d like to come see the item, then got no response. WTH?
One common “scam”(?) i was seeing for quite a while was cars and trucks for sale for not only ridiculous low prices but the prices were very odd like $1234 or $2051. I don’t get it!
I know we have to be cautious and take precautions when dealing with people we don’t know and/or meet on the internet but do we need to be afraid to simply inquire about ads on these kinds of sites?
