This board needs a verified seller pinned section. Been selling my tickets here for probably for 5-10 years now.

Agree. I sell my extra tickets to most games on here. NEVER had a complaint.

Add another to the scam list. When I wanted to talk to him on the phone (he was very quick to respond to email) he ghosted me 40 minutes ago.

Looks like someone just tried to Venmo scam me for a parking pass.

When they "attempted" to pay from a "business" account, I got this text (which was not from Venmo's text notifications [nor did I have a notification on my venmo account]).

quote:

VENMO Alert: Account Limit
Dear Customer,

Unfortunately, we encountered a little problem while trying to credit your Venmo ®? account, you received a payment of $350.00 USD but we had an issue depositing that amount to your account because the status of your Venmo®? account is not a business user which makes your account have a limit and this amount seems to be above your limit. You have to take the urgent step to expand your account limit.

[FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS]
Contact the payee of your account to help you send an additional payment of $500.00 USD so that your limit can be expanded, As soon as this is done we will send you a notification before we process the total payment into your Venmo®? account. Your account will be credited with the total sum of $850.00 USD immediately with no delay.

Note: An alert has been sent to the sender in regard to the $500.00 USD additional payment he/she has to send to you, we will secure this transaction with high priority that neither the payer or payee loses funds on any transaction we hold.

For further QUESTIONS - Call us +1 (804)-466-8150 for immediate assistance.

Thanks for using Venmo.


Oh, and a huge company like Venmo texted from that same telephone number.

Can't believe that Craig Glem is still trying. I was already wise to him, but he tried again today. Again, he is posing as a buyer (not a seller). Just ask for their mobile phone number and they will go away. Craigglem772@outlook.com
