We (soul source) can not help you due to the way paypal works Any 'new' member with 0 or low posts selling items and asking you to pay by F&F is highly suspect! Any 'new' member with 0 posts pm-ing you reference posted wants and asking you to pay by F&F is highly suspect! DO NOT PAY - REPORT/FLAG THE PM AND MEMBER ASP!!!!!
January 13, 20232 yr I've been looking at some Discogs listings from a European entry with 4 completely different genres - all big ticket items at @ 50% current market prices or better with no listing background and no sale to the UK stipulated - photos are stock items from other full price listings - Unfortunately there are still people out there that can't resist a bargain whether it be item price or avoiding fees and as a few members on here have confessed recently they've been caught out. So whatever the apparent incentive it's not a risk worth taking.
January 13, 20232 yr Discogs forum is full of threads about scammers using hacked abandoned accounts. People tend to wise up there. So these crooks are looking for alternatives now, e.g. Soul Source.
January 13, 20232 yr Can new members who wish to sell go through some form of verification? Also maybe restrict them to the forum until they have contributed to the site in some way?
January 13, 20232 yr It's not just tunes, I see posts warning of scams with collectables all the time.
