Title: Just A Head Up
Post by: OLumeVaSti on July 30, 2014, 10:55:36 AM
I don't know how many of you sale on the Facebook My Little Pony Extras page, but I just wanted to let you guys know there is a potential scammer on that page. Mods please remove name if I can not post it. I have a few ponies that I can no get rid of up for sale there. A member by the name of Richell Blue commented on my sales post the following.



Richell : I really need Rainbow Dash!


Richell : How much?


Sarahanne: Richell I PMED you check your other box.

So I PMed her

Me: Want to do 5.50 including shipping. $3.00 for Rainbow Dash $2.50 shipping. Which one do you want? I have  the Toys R Us, Tinsel Haired, and plain ol' Rainbow Dash.

And this what I get.

Richelle:
Sorry i have no money thats why i said free

Well i mean i have no money

Where do I see free in that conversation before that?   :shocked:

So, I ignored her. Then I look at the main page again and I see that she has a post asking for a free Plumsweet.

Just thought I let you guys and gals know.

*slight edit to remove last name*  :heart: PL

I think this was the same person looking for a free Plumsweet with free shipping as well. What cheek!

Edit! Whoops just saw your post about this! Yeah, what nerve. Looks like the post isn't there anymore though. Sounds like either someone who's looking for handouts or is a child who doesn't know better. (Why do they let them loose on the internet?)

I saw the avatar pic first and was like "Oh, that can't be what I think it is, it's just brown pudding!"  Then I saw your name and went "Nope, that's poop."  :freak:

on topic: I saw this person had posted asking for free ponies with free shipping. I reported the post to admin without replying.

we get a *lot* of this on the Sims forums. "can someone gift me ____" "you do realize that ____ costs about $50 actual dollars, right?"

Clearly she is someone without a nose. And she can't afford one.

I feel like this should be my next career move...does it involve being naked and eating doughnuts? I am fully qualified.

*wonders if ponylady is going to consider this off topic enough*

And it's so funny because she's not just asking for -free- ponies, she asking people to PAY to ship them too her.  So beyond free, it's like people are paying her to take ponies.  Expecting that from random people on facebook is just bizarro.
