Yesterday afternoon, a handful of users reported receiving suspicious texts from +15144169800. The messages claim to be from a lady buying items listed on Kijiji and push recipients to move the transaction to PayPal or share personal details like email addresses. This pattern matches common scam tactics that use urgency and a veneer of legitimacy to harvest personal info and siphon money. If you get a similar request, halt the conversation, verify the buyer through the platform’s messaging system, and never send money before confirming identity. Block the number, flag the user on the marketplace, and consider reporting the incident to your carrier and local consumer‑protection agency.
