Honestly, these messages are classic scam tactics that surface right after a listing goes live. They usually push you to move the conversation to email, ask for bank details, or promise fast payment via questionable channels. Never share personal or financial information through a link or unknown address, and avoid replying to the SMS at all. Block the number in your phone, report the incident to the marketplace platform, and consider flagging the contact as spam in your carrier’s system. Keep all communications within the platform’s official chat whenever possible, and educate yourself on typical phishing patterns to stay ahead of future attempts.
