Beware of scammer "Tegan Watts" selling Oakleys on FB.
Don't let "her" confuse you with "her" sweet talk, it's probably not even a "her", and all he/she says is complete BS. See pics below.

Tried to sell me a Mars for $300, and then a Mars Jordan for $330, but would only accept F&F or FB payment, which neither protects the buyer, and his/her claim, was that the payment would be held 21 days if G&S. Too many red flags, I passed, but another OF member took a shot at it, and got burned.

Note, if you go with FB payment, and use PP or credit card to complete the transaction, YOU ARE NOT PROTECTED. Facebook is making it possible for scammers to get away with that.

Clear example of the classic "if it's too good to be true, it probably is".

Yup , I passed as well. Figured most members here know the deal.

I can tell from her picture that she’s a scam artist.

Sucks that an OF member fell for it. I wonder how much these fukers make scamming like that

Who was it?

 

[ZCForge]

I'll let him publicize it if he wants. I just wanted to warn people about it

No worries. I’m sure a bunch of us here have been burned like that before at some point. Was just curious

Usually when you see that someone has joined Facebook yesterday and has 6 friends.. is another big RED flag

@Jase_nz - fyi

 

[KarlBlessing]

far as profiles go, this one seemed a little obvious.

 

[KarlBlessing]

Still at least one person in OF fell for it, and who knows how many more did too.

Scammers only need 1 out of every 20 to fall for their BS, and they do

Usually also depends upon experience, like having been around FB to know that some 'model' looking profile picture sending you a friend request that has only existed for a couple days is most likely a fake profile.

It was me. I’m still waiting for you to approve my friend request
