  • Buckle up because I have quit the story for you... I was recently scammed on Poshmark as a buyer and the scam was so much worse than I thought.... I'm going to share the horror story of what happened and also how to avoid scams on Poshmark in the future. It is so important to be aware of these things as resellers and buyers on Poshmark, eBay and Mercari. Please make sure you are protecting your personal information on the internet. I wish I did a better job of this when I started selling full time on Poshmark.

      I bought a $100 Lego and they sent my package (which had a sicker not a Lego) to a different address in my town. Luckily the post office told us the new address and we talked to the person and then we contacted Poshmark and got our money back. I don’t use PayPal so it ended there

      I have a closet set up on poshmark and my listings are to educate people on how to identify scam closets, how they work and how to prove it's a scam for a refund. I also sent you a message through poshmark in a bundle..

      I know what they gain besides what you have listed. They make a main closet and link all their scam closets (hundreds) to the main one with a referral code. When they make the first sale poshmark pays the main acct 10.00 for the referral.. This 10.00 adds up quickly

    These scammers are relentless! I created a new account on eBay to resell clothes and immediately my listings were selling or i was getting offers for more than the listed amount. After the sale I was receiving emails telling me to call their number so we can discuss payment/shipping options. Negative! I ended up deleting all the listings and going back to my original account.

    Ugh, I’m so sorry this happened to you and glad it worked out. What a headache! I’ve always wondered what their scam was due to the fact that the customer would have to accept the item to get their money. But now I get it. I report these people on the daily. They’re easy to spot but unfortunately create way way too many accounts at a time, no one can keep up. I’ve had them steal my listings pics, descriptions and all. It’s very frustrating!

    Oh wow! This is a new scam! Gucci is one to be on the look out. About a month Ago, I was looking for Gucci bags for my mom and I came across a closet that seemed legit. Prices seemed very reasonable. They had photos of the actual item… supposedly… and they had many listing. They promised authenticity etc. on the description. So I felt comfortable. So I added a few small purses to my bundle from this particular seller to make him/her an offer. However, As I was getting ready to make an offer to the seller , his closet suddenly disappeared. I thought the item sold before I could make an offer. I was so confused. So I tried looking for the seller closet, but I kept getting an error message. Nope, that closet completely disappeared. I immediately realize that this was probably a scammer’s closet.

However as a seller on eBay a seller can see the email, address and phone number but not one Posh.

      I disagree … I recently had non sales within two days that totaled over 3000 dollars … all the buyers were different but two and no buyer had a pic nor history nor name other than first name and numerical name, none of the buyers would reply to my “thanks for purchasing your item will ship soon” opening statement… but after checking my labels every single buyer had the same Miami address to of all places a federal building to a security desk….. all delivered to exact same place … once delivered not one person responded … I did get paid after 72hrs but then months later all sales were charged back for stolen credit cards and my money account was stolen out of my accounts …. So yeah I should have known better and not shipped when I saw all those same addresses and no size correlation and no response and also no buyer history but … I have such standing on Poshmark that I thought they would have my back if something went wrong but that was not the case… I also believe what this seller is talking about could have also been the end goal for they got my items and I lost due to not watching addresses carefully enough . Main lesson do not sell to any name with numbers attached and that don’t respond in correct English to you after a sell. Cancel all else

    Here it is, thank God I had the item to actually ship but what if I didn't!
    Did it not have the return address? Bc mine had it on there.

So basically most shoppers use PayPal on Poshmark and that’s the hackers way to know if you have an active PayPal account when you purchased an item from them. Then they automatically receive your shipping address (billing) and I didn’t realize as a seller we have access to customers email address? I never paid attention 🤦🏾‍♀️

    New to Poshmark, sold on eBay, stopped because of scammers as buyers, literally had to Go to small claims. So just stopped selling.
    So I have a question about selling on Poshmark. I sold a item and it says delivered , but now the seller is saying they didn’t receive it... all the other shipped items got to the people. Another buyer now has my kaftan in there own listing but hasn’t accepted the order. Anyone have any insight on this?? Thank you 🙏

      reach out to poshmark and they should take care of it for you! They are pretty good about that stuff

    Interesting. I'm reflecting on your situation and wondering how in the heck did they get your PayPal information through Poshmark?

      I likely had nothing to do with Posh. Think they tried resetting her password and figured out the answer to her security questions like "pet's name" or "mother's maiden name".

      Poshmark did have a security breach a few years ago. Not sure if they could have looked up the information from that once they had her name?

      The only info I can they got for sure was your address and name from the shipping label. And I think the scammer knew the funds needs to be released first that’s why they had so many accounts more chances for someone to just accept it before opening thus making profit. Maybe you were hacked twice at same time?

    I bought a massage chair once and received a sheet of stickers with the tracking number the seller gave me. I had called Paypal prior to receiving the package to let them know that I thought I was being scammed because a huge chair would never be sent through USPS. They refunded my money no problem.

    Man, scammers are relentless! I’m thinking this wasn’t poshmark giving out your info but rather they took your address and name and someone got into your paypal account? I mean, as a poshmark seller I would not know how to access someone’s payment info, but you could definitely call a company (like paypal) and pretend to be someone you aren’t. Idk if you ever figure it out please update us!

    I had no idea poshmark used PayPal. I did put in an offer for a Canada Goose coat, everything was exactly like you said one listing various sizes. My offer was not excepted so I went on to look for another Canada Goose coat but saw a few listed the same way photo of actual coat with various sizes. The only difference is I don’t have a PayPal account so I think they target people that payment is done with PayPal it might be one of the reasons eBay stopped using PayPal these accounts are easy for scammers to hack

    I used to shop on depop and it was very good for me but doesn’t mean there aren’t scammers, with depop your payment gets in your PayPal account as soon as you make a sale, it feels like on poshmark since they keep your money, people will scam more. And the worst with poshmark is that your address is on the package
