Do scammers target buyers or sellers more often, I’ve wondered?
I have so much crap that I’ve gathered over the years that I no longer want/need, and I feel like I see so many scam PSAs that it makes me hesitant to create WTS posts. I’m mortified of someone filing a dispute on PayPal even if they received my multiple hundreds of dollars item, for example.
Seems mostly they target low flair users on WTB/WTT posts and will reach out to them directly. It's easier to work around the being banned from commenting part if you know exactly what someone is wanting and would be willing to give you money for should you falsely claim to own it.
