Scam with Zelle?

[bikewhorder]

IDk. It makes sense that someone would need their antique bicycle saddle shipped next day air. Ya gotta get it before it gets any older!

I only use Zelle with people I know well. Same goes with PP FF.

With that said... @New Mexico Brant Where the Hell is my $2500 saddle?!?!?

Wait, you expect people to ship to you in a timely manner!? What is your normal turnaround time…3 months +/-? I usually ship within 3 days unless I cant get a proper box or something goes astray.

I have heard to scams with people requesting you pay with Zelle but the item never arrives. Or scammers fish for your account info and password and drain your account. Yesterday I had someone want to buy a $2,500 saddle; they were going to pay with Zelle. The immediate red flag was that they wanted it overnighted and were offering an additional $200 ($2,700 total) for the overnight shipping. Once you receive a Zelle payment can it be withdrawn? Anyone else encounter a similar situation with this payment method?

sounds like the same scam that's popular on craigslist, only the scammer sends a fake money order for x-amt over the asking price.
you cash it and a week or so later your bank pulls the funds and fees back.
dunno how it works with zelle.

I looked on your Facebook and didn’t see a post about it? Am I doing something wrong

the seller sets the payment terms, not the buyer.
