profashionalnyc Hello ladies, just wanted to share important information that you should be informed of if anyone ever tries to scam you. It's always good to know this, and LET THE SCAMMER KNOW that you are aware of this information and that they should be aware of it as well and that they need to do the right thing! @tattooedred25 @dreamer722 @ohsogorgeouss @karladiaz36 @malsaud @snazzybunny3 @luxurythrift @ballin_likejay

profashionalnyc You are so very welcome. I was literally moments away from proceeding and once I told her what I would do she moved her butt so fast and sent me my stuff. This is why it is good to have this info, and let them know to scare the crap out of them. Hopefully all you will have to do is tell her this as well and not have to go through the process of actually having to call the post office and precinct nearest her. I wish you the very best of luck! @kimzap

tattooedred25 Thanks so much, hun. It may have already been in there, but I wanted to mention that you can get your items back BEFORE they arrive at their house/local Post Office. You can create an account with the USPS online & it will give you details regarding how to stop a package. I have done so just in case this ever happens & the "other party" doesn't send their items within 2 days. It costs, yes, but if your items are worth it to you, then that is something to seriously keep in mind.

ballin_likejay @hayliann23 this is what I meant by things getting taking to the next level legally. I've had to take it there before on posh with a girl who tried to scam me. Just ship the stuff to Kim & be done with this or it will get ugly!

profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @tattooedred25 Very good information as well! I wish I could've done that, I would have paid to get my $70 worth of items back! But I had shipped the next day and I gave her the benefit of the doubt. But thankfully, due to awesome poshers, and the info I had, she ended up sending me my part of the trade. And even then, one of the items she sent was damaged and smelly. I must've had some luck because Poshmark refunded me the $8 trade shipping I had paid when I sent them the pictures.

tattooedred25
tattooedred25 @profashionalnyc My very 1st trade was with Kim. She took a chance on me & I shipped the day I said I would. I always ship 1-2 days, but from now on if the person doesn't have any references or even feedback they will ship first. Even then though you have to wonder if the stuff actually being sent to you is real :/ So many ignorant people on here! I don't even understand it. I am so sorry to hear that :( I wish I would have known about this sooner to have helped you.

Its so funny, before people take a huge leap, it is best to do extensive research, & scammers just don't do that. They just act on selfish impulse, Little do they know the harm they are inflicting on themselves is worse than what they do to others. Their actions reflect on their character. Karma is a MUTHA......! And I hope she catches your Scammer!

malsaud @profashionalnyc - yup thanks. It sucks I traded my brand new purse with this girl. She sent me her used up peeling bag. When I demanded to send my bag back she refused and made this excuse that her sister took it and blah blah. The next day I saw her selling it on another site. Her closet is blocked on poshmark, but who knows maybe she made another one and is selling again.

Never in my life would I cause or wish bodily harm on someone but I made her realize you're messing with the wrong people. She said she's going to make it right. It just ruins this awesome community that we have of women that for the most part that lift each other up instead of being catty b!tches.

profashionalnyc @hayliann23 There is no TRYING to fix it, Just Do It Already! You don't want people calling you a liar & a scammer? THEN DON'T ACT LIKE ONE. You have free time to ship, I suggest you GO get Kim her Pallet & ship out by Friday or a Federal case will be charged against you. All your convos of when youll ship for everyone else just proves even more that you are doing nothing to resolve THIS situation. You are really going to screw yourself over.

lelelulu2 how do you stop your package if its in transit? I traded with somebody 2 days ago, i shipped hers-she said she shipped mine, but she did not. I would like to stop it if I can. Looked on USPS website and couldn't find anything about that.
Jun 25Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @lelelulu Hello There! I saw that she shipped only 13hrs ago. Sometimes scan updates can take up to 24hrs. When shipped, you should receive an email from Posh stating it has, with tracking info. Ask her again, If you do not have an email by morning. If you still feel wary about it, notify her you are canceling your order, request a cancelation with Posh, check the progress of your package to her & if it has not been delivered yet, go here: https://www.usps.com/manage/package-intercept.htm
Jun 25Reply
lelelulu2
lelelulu2 Thanks. I figured out how to intercept and did so around 300 am. At 330 I received notice that it shipped. I want to cancel the interception but that doesn't appear to be an option. It cost me $25 to intercept.😬

profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc Hey ladies, Just wanted to share my experience with you since I read you all went through something similar. Know Your Rights. If you used USPS to ship & if you purchased postage via USPS for them to ship & they do not comply, it is FRAUD. No matter if you trade on Posh, V!nted, E*bay, or wherever, an agreement is a CONTRACT & if you have visual proof (written/text) it is even better for you. @yalilyl90 @sjustice @allyfrazer @landerites @mariana_art @samanthaphoebe

profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @vknee Keep in contact with her, try to find out why she hasn't shipped yet. Sometimes people get busy. But If she doesn't ship after a couple of days, and she stops responding to you, these are the steps you can take.
Jul 26Reply
vknee
vknee Awesome! This is beyond helpful💗 I'll think I'll comment later again today on the item she's supposed to give me. I'll wait a few days for her but if nothing happens I'll definitely take action
Jul 26Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @vknee I think you should just wait until tomorrow evening. You shipped on Friday. She didn't ship Friday or Saturday, and Post office is closed today. So if there is no email notification that she shipped by tomorrow night, that was was more than enough time for her to ship, then you should notify her that you are going to take further action.
Jul 26Reply
vknee
vknee Okay I'll trust your advice💗 but I thought it was also a little sketchy because we canceled orders right after purchasing. So we had each other's shipping labels, but we didn't pay for shipping technically. She offered trading this way but since I'm not familiar with trading I wasn't sure so I went along with it. 😐

Lol I would be able to give you feedback which will make other poshers feel more comfortable with doing a trade with you. What we do is lower our listing to $3 (lowest posh allows) and we purchase each other's listing like normal, in order to get the 2-day tracked shipping.

areedabook
areedabook So how does that go in regards to bundles? Considering I would like the bag and the shoes? I know if we lower them to be under 15$ we only get charged a little over 2$ by Poshmark.
Oct 12Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @areedabook For bundles I do the same exact thing. It's just one listing. That way you only pay once for shipping. So both the bag and the shoes will be $3 plus the 4.99 shipping. So we are both going to be paying 7.99 for our trade, and it's mostly because we want 2 day tracked shipping.
Oct 12Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @areedabook The 4.99 standard shipping is for anything up to 5lbs. So, people would have to be shipping or trading a large amount for it to go over 5 pounds.
Oct 12Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @areedabook we aren't selling, we are trading. If you are selling, you are trying to make money. And anything $15.00 or less Posh takes 2.95 out the selling price. And if it is over $15, then posh takes 20% of the selling price. But in this case we are trading. We are both spending $3 which is the lowest price you can set an item to, and then 4.99 shipping.
Oct 12Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @areedabook There is no profit with trading. I mean there is, and it's .5cents again because posh takes 2.95 out of anything under 15. But we set it to $3 because we don't want to spend more than we have to. So I buy your listing, and you buy mine. If it's multiple items, I bundle to one listing. You only way the 3 + 4.99 once. The shoes and bag would definitely be under 5 pounds.

If you kept your end of the deal and they aren't compliant, they committed fraud. Stealing is fraud. And stealing using USPS is a FELONY. I know lots of people who have taken these actions, and they have gotten their items back and the scammers have gotten into tremendous trouble.

That way if she gets a new account, and tries to trade, once we see the address we will say DENIED! This is crazy, people don't realize how much trouble they can get into for scamming.

I personally havent traded on Posh before, but im ALWAYS reading stories of scammers and seems to me the best way to trade is to set the listings at $3 (lowest possible price) then purchase it for $7.99 where your mostly paying for shipping BUT it makes it possible for EVERYTHING to be covered under posh!

She was trying to pass off a Chanel bracelet as authentic when it is fake. I almost traded 12 of my nice items for it. Thank God I did the research and asked for close up of the stamp. I believe that she got the stamp off of the Internet because when I tried to compare with the date she said the bracelet was it didn't match up....
Jan 11Reply
jgajewski
jgajewski She also said that she could not do the trade through posh because her printer wasn't working and wanted me to do the trade off posh. That is when the real red flag shot up for me and I told her that I was going to not go through with the trade. Moments later I was sending her a good night message and she had blocked me and deleted the whole listing where we had the conversation...
Jan 11Reply
jgajewski
jgajewski Little did she know that I took screenshots of our entire conversation and of the bundle listing that I was going to send her so I have proof of all of this.. I don't do drama so I have not outed her but I saw that you tagged her to one her warn but she is actually up to no good😔

jgajewski I just reread that..sorry bout all the grammar mess ups.😕Another thing that upsets me is I had the proof in my about the scam with the title "Why can't everyone be honest" and POSH took it down! She has multiple items that aren't even allowed to be sold on posh and none of her listings have been taken down! I follow ALL of posh rules! It crazy to me that Posh took down the listing where I wasn't even being mean..I was just showing proof of the conversation to warn my fellow poshers. Frustrating!
Jan 11Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @jgajewski if this is the case you NEED to write to Posh immediately. Tell them the situation detailed but to the point. Make all the points about 1. You wanting to purchase & Her Requesting off Posh transactions. 2. You asking proof of authenticity & receiving something easily found online. 3. You confronting her and then she blocked you and she removed proof. Detailed pointing out all things against posh policy
Jan 11Reply
jgajewski
jgajewski I definitely would had wrote posh but it was going to be a trade. I know trading is allowed by posh but it didn't think they did anything about a trade gone wrong. I'm surprised they took down the post about it though.

profashionalnyc @jgajewski The only thing they don't do is offer returns or refunds for shipping for trades. End your email with "I know posh doesn't support trades, but everything I do IS ON posh & I decided not to after she wanted to do so off Posh. I would have even been interested in purchasing if she provided authenticity. But Posh needs to be notified that she is trying to sell & trade counterfeit items which is ILLEGAL & she could definitely find someone to scam if it goes overlooked" BAM!
Jan 11Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @jgajewski I'm sure they will investigate. If you make the email detailed but straight to the point. List all the reasons it was shady and make sure you mention how she could scam someone who is gullible. But regardless make sure you point out that it was counterfeit because you compared to authentic items & once you asked for authenticity she blocked you. And if she were selling authentic items she would have the proof & would have no need to block anyone.
Jan 11Reply

profashionalnyc @jgajewski then after you write to them wait a couple of hours and then you can post your listing again that they took down. Make sure you title your listing "BE SAFE! ALWAYS ASK FOR AUTHENTICITY!" that way it is more like you are looking out for people. BUT you need to have legit proof before you do.

profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @jgajewski I'm just a little shocked because I just realized that she and another posher and I were having a fun conversation and it was about people who have scammed US in the past. So I didn't think she was the type. The only thing I noticed is that she has sold nothing but it didn't alarm me. But if that is true you NEED to write to posh

jgajewski I definitely will. I'm not a real easy person to get over on so I will have to admit she has great skills. I don't know a lot about Chanel jewelry and if I didn't research it she would have about $800 worth of my stuff!

kaylathaing Hi! I just came along this and wanted to ask for some advice.. I recently did a trade with this girl on vinted another app like this one where you sell buy & swap things. We did a trade about 1 & a half week ago but she had good reviews so i decided to trust her & just exchange addresses. We were suppose to trade for two things each
Feb 11Reply
kaylathaing
kaylathaing The last time she replied to me was 5 days ago and i Messaged her telling her my package didn't come in yet and asked if hers did. After She told me she shipped it 4 days ago & she didn't receive hers either.
Feb 11Reply
kaylathaing
kaylathaing I just found out yesterday that it got shipped to her on Wednesday because i forgot i had the tracking number. I have been constantly trying to reach out to her, she still hasn't responded back.Yet the app can tell you when they last get on.

kaylathaing
kaylathaing It told me shE was on yesterday and i messaged her that same day. i went to one of the listings that we were gonna swap and their was this other person asking to swap, the girl later replied saying "still wanna swap?" So i messaged the same girl that left that comment and asked her if they were planning to swap one of the items we were suppose to recieve. She replied back to me saying they havent decided what they wanted to swap yet.
Feb 11Reply
kaylathaing
kaylathaing Also, she told me that she thinks it was 2 days since they talked. Since i recall she hasnt replied to me in 5 days but can reply to someone else? Do i start calling her a scammer? Do i report her? See i dont know if thats such a good idea commenting and calling her a scammer because would if she blocks me then i cant do anything about it. I just want my part of the trade if not is their any way she can send me my items back?

profashionalnyc @artdiva772 You are very welcome! 💖 It really is a shame that there are people who would stoop this low in order to acquire material things. It's crazy! I LOVE to trade, I've done 30 successful trades here on Posh so far. Thank goodness there was only that one time and everyone else I have traded with has been amazing. So I have this listed so that others can know that I know my rights & options and everyone else who trades should know them as well.

artdiva772
artdiva772 @profashionalnyc I know, when I started with Poshmark. I really didn't think I was going to continue on this venture. In the beginning I wasn't savvy to the process. Ran into a couple of bad seeds (buyers) that were vicious. Flat out lied to posh Mark to make themselves look good, I was nothing but patient, patient and more patient. So there went my five star rating. However I have stayed, and things are looking up and I have a lot of five stars now. Thank you for answering.

profashionalnyc @lucky1961 Hello sweets, I wrote to you & Diana in regards of your item saying it was delivered. I just saw the convoy because I clicked on her most recent sale. I purchased something from her last week & she has not replied to me since then. You can even see I wrote on her listing. She explained her situation to you but not to me so I wrote to her on there & as you can see she still hasn't replied.
May 17Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @lucky1961 I find it a bit strange, if someone gets into your account you would, notify Posh, just cancel the orders and change the address back (after copying it down of course) and change the password. That situation doesn't affect the orders that have been purchased FROM her. She has to figure out who is ordering things from her account but again it doesn't affect orders that are purchased from her.
May 17Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @lucky1961 I'm just getting a little bothered by it. I just don't like it when people don't communicate with their customers. It becomes a huge inconvenience that way. A person ordering from her account, nor the fact that "it seems" she only has Posh on her bf phone is an excuse for no communication. Is it difficult to download it on any other device? And if he's the only one with her account, wouldn't it make sense that he or someone who used his phone ordered something for someone?
May 17Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @lucky1961 So I just wanted to know if you guys found a resolution. Because if she just keeps ignoring me I'm just going to cancel. I'd rather the person be upfront and say they have been busy or they can't find it or they can't ship it...tell me something, ya know? I don't like to feel like I have to chase someone to answer me about something I already paid for. I just wish she would reply.

profashionalnyc @lucky1961 I have no idea. Lots of people share a sign up code for ♏. It gives both people $2 in their account. I was just asking because I was going to sign up. I still want to sign up but I'll probably never use it because Posh is waaaaaay safer. I've been on here for 2 years and only had an issue once! Until now. She finally answered me but her reply was the same thing she said to you. Makes no sense. Printing out a label and shipping aren't affected by someone going into her account.
May 18Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @lucky1961 We still paid! All she has to do is ship them & notify poshmark to see if there is a way to hold the funds for her until its resolved. She told you she is only logged into her bfs phone, then she needs to start asking her bf some questions. Lol She also said someone changed the address & ordered stuff to the new address. Isn't it common sense to find out what the address is? Like ask the sellers to send her a copy of the label. The person's info would be on there if they changed it.

profashionalnyc @dumsersrt50 Listen, don't feel bad. You have every right to worry. You spent time & money shipping, and your items have cash value. That's a loss of money if that were to happen. It's already been plenty of time. You have to tell her you are starting to feel uncomfortable being that you were courteous enough to ship the next day and here it is 8 days later without even a tracking number. You have every right.
Jun 16Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @dumsersrt50 This I why I refuse to trade off of poshmark because you ship and suddenly they don't have $ to ship your stuff and that's the end of it. It becomes a horrible game of cat and mouse and it's time consuming and honestly just a pain in the rear! At least on Posh everyone purchases their own shipping so it deters people who are trying to scam that way. But no matter how the transaction, scammed will try to get away with it
Jun 16Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @dumsersrt50 I wouldn't give it another week, I'd give it until Saturday. If there is no legit tracking info then I would start being more stern with her. If you feel her reasons for not shipping see legit then I'd still wait until Saturday. I feel like 10 days is enough time to get things sorted.

dumsersrt50 Sorry. Had to run out for a minute for birthday stuff for my little boy. But thank you so much for your response. I go way out of my way sometimes to ship things immediately and I am very trusting so I like to be treated the same. I have been in contact with her and did tell her I hated to be like this but I need a tracking number so hopefully she will send me one within the day
Jun 16Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @dumsersrt50 I don't like being that way either but it's very hard to be at ease in situations like this. I would give her no later than Saturday to ship and even that's too long. If she is not compliant by the time you two agreed then just tag her on this listing the day before and say please ship within 24 hours if not I will be moving forward with other methods as to getting this resolved. That way she can read the type of hassle she can get into for not being reliable & reputable.

When trading, poshers choose the items they'd like to trade (equal value) & they are all listed/bundled into one listing. Lower the price of listing to $3 (that's the lowest price Posh permits) Then poshers purchase, package & ship out like a normal transaction. I have lots more items to add, If you are looking for anything in particular, let me know.

shopatamo This is awesome. And also why I believe most people are skeptical of trading. I have a question for you though! Is there a safer way to conduct trading than doing it off poshmark? I usually give them my email where we talk about the trade there. But is there a way to do some of it through posh? You meantioned how Poshmark would take legal action, but how would they if they don't know you conducted a trade?
May 01Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @maddiestrunsee Hey Maddie, yes I ONLY trade through Posh. It is actually the safest way to trade. I wouldnt trade any other way. The reason it is the safest is because your conversations are saved on the listing. Once purchased the listing can never be deleted. Thats proof. Also the shipping is tracked, you can see if someone shipped their end. And if the person does not comply, Posh can provide any information authorities may need if you end up contacting the authorities.
May 01Reply
shopatamo
shopatamo @profashionalnyc okay that's really helpful! Would you just purchase the item they have up for sale for the same price as the one they purchase so you both receive the same amount? Why did I not even think of this 😅
May 01Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @maddiestrunsee You can still contact the authorities if you were scammed outside of Posh, but if the person sends you a fake address, or fake name, using a faulty email you would never know where to start & neither would the authorities. I could go on forever about the pros & cons. I use to sell & trade on IG using Paipal and it was very risky. Now that im on Posh, I feel more secure and protected as Posh can provide much more concrete information if need be.
May 01Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @maddiestrunsee As a suggested user I can not promote or condone people who find each other on Posh & take their transactions out of Posh, as it's against Posh rules. But I know people do it & I'm not here to bust anyone's balls. Lol There is protection whether you trade on here or outside of Posh, just more so on Posh. And though scammers will scam & liars will lie no matter who, what, when, or where, selling & trading on Posh is 5000% Better & Safer. That's just my opinion lol

May 01Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @maddiestrunsee Oh yeah, you can agree on a certain price and both of you change the price to that OR what most people do is just lower it to $3. We used to be able to lower to 0 but now the minmum is $3. Same goes for a bundle, you just create the listing with all the items and lower to $3. And both pay the standard $6.49 shipping + $3. The $6.49 flat fee is for up to 5LBS & 2-3 Day Priority Tracked Shipping! Which is great for shoes, coats, beautu products & heavy items

melscrazycloset
melscrazycloset Perfect example of why one of Poshmark's suggestions is NO trades! This platform is free, and using it to make offline transactions is just asking for trouble! Poshmark is not responsible for, or obligated to, mediate and/or give you remuneration for a loss that occurred due to choosing to trade/ do business off the platform. Don't cheat yourself! Scammers are out there! 😔
May 27Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @melscrazycloset This post is to help people who DO Want To Trade. We all know what Posh suggests but the point is, its allowed. We know that trading is a risk, just as there is risk making any purchase here. Also My post does NOT mention offline transactions. I do not promote/condone trading outside of Posh. If You don't trade or agree, cool, that's your decision. But again, This Post is to help those that do trade honestly, not for people to tell us not to trade. Thanks for the comment though.

A while back (around five months ago) i traded with a user and they deleted their account but we did the trade off poshmark (through usps) and she failed to send her items to me but i sent mine to her. i have a record through emails of her confirming the trade. my items totaling $59 with $7 shipping through usps. is there anything you think i would possibly be able to do in this situation? thank you in advance ❤️

profashionalnyc @cleanandkeen Here is another post I made a couple years ago about my experience. I talk about how i got my items and how others can protect themselves & know their options when it comes to taking legal action. It may be a bit extreme lol but I'm a BIG believer in karma and I dont think anyone should be that much of an a§§hole just to aquire something materialistic.

emmagrace42000 @ghiles veeeeerrrryyyyyy interesting.... she said she was going through a custody battle and then sent pictures of a bloody cut on her leg and said she was in the hospital. Then she said her ex husband abducted her daughter..... I just noticed she made another account and spammed her account. This happened in November I’m not sure what to do now. I contacted posh though

emmagrace42000 @ghiles but I did learn a lesson lol. At least I have that. I keep tagging her in posts that I make hoping it’ll scare her that I have all her info... since she blocked me do u think she gets notifications of me tagging her? Or would you be able to tag her mahbe?

emmagrace42000 @ghiles OMFG I GOT HER CRIMINAL RECORD
Feb 06Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @emmagrace42000 @ghiles I must tell you that the first thing you need to do is remove her address and phone number from your account. No matter the reason, you can actually get in trouble for that and you dont want her to counter you for harassment.
Feb 06Reply
emmagrace42000
emmagrace42000 @profashionalnyc okay. Thank u for that advice. How else would I scare her into sending it back? I want her to know that I have this
Feb 06Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @emmagrace42000 @ghiles unfortunately thats the way it goes, because you can get into trouble for posting her information. First step is to fill out a government IC3 form for internet fraud. You can find it online and submit it immediately. And if you want to, you can call HER nearest precinct and let them know you filled out an IC3 form and that she has a record. You can see what they tell you because she is committing internet fraud, and theft by using a government agency (usps)

Mar 02Reply
profashionalnyc
profashionalnyc @daricek There is risk in everything we do, even making a regular purchase people have sent wrong items, damaged items, people claim they never receive their packages...a whole bunch of crap. But, I haven't had an issue since that time (2015) The rest of my 42 trades were awesome. I continue to trade with those poshers and we all recommend other poshers to trade with & we refer eachother to others as well.
Mar 02Reply
daricek
daricek @profashionalnyc yes but if paid and you receive the wrong item, no item, an item that is damaged you have so much less work to get your money back. I just don’t have the energy to take a chance in trading.

profashionalnyc @daricek I totally get it. It's better to just remain in the group of people you know you can Trust and go by references and feedback. This post and my other trade post let's others know that I won't Let them get away with anything, so It's kind of a deterrent. But trading is LOTS of fun Lol I love it.

profashionalnyc @laura1986 See how you were alerted to my comment? Its because i tagged you so that you can be notified. Whenever anyone comments, you can simply click the reply link under their comment and it will automatically tag their name for you. See the word "reply" under this comment? That will help you tag the person 1,2,3! Just wanted to help, it makes communicating much easier. ✌ but yes definitely would love to purchase the swim suits.
