            It’s probably been mentioned many times but it’s sad that this topic even exists. I hate that I look at everything now with the thought that it could be a scam. What’s worse is that I think of my now 1 year old son and what he will have to navigate. I love that this forum finds these “people” and shuts them down even if just for a little while.

              Thanks Giles. And yes this is pretty sad. It took me off guard. It was only when I started asking questions in the email and I clearly wasn't speaking to a denim head that I looked back at the original message. I've only been a member since the beginning of the year and I've found the community to be pretty amazing so it sucks that one has to be vigilant for this stuff.

                Dear all,
                Dear IH enthusiasts,

                Currently, there is a wave of selling scam regarding IH items happening in Germany via the online platform "Kleinanzeigen" (former "EbayKleinanzeigen").
                IH items are proposed at very low prices, sellers only accept PayPal Family and Friends, and rip you off. Of course, the items are never sent and your money is lost.

                Examples of sellers´ names are/have been:
                Ro624; Victoria, Marc, Philipp, etc.
                These are accounts from people who are usually long-standing members of that particular marketplace with good evaluation (that most likely have been hacked).

                Kleinanzeige has deleted numerous accounts, but new ones pop up regularly.

                Currently, I see one such item: https://www.kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/iron-heart-herren-jeans-hose-dunkelblau-w34-l36-wie-neu/2659519451-160-9482

                Please beware!

                Have a good day.
                Olivier

                PS: If this thread is not the appropriate location, please feel free to relocate it. Thanks in advance.

                    @tody said in Random Rants:

                    Buyer beware on the German platform kleinanzeigen.de!
                    I noticed a multitude of new offers at too-good-to-be-true prices. Photos are taken from older listings, seller accounts are probably hacked or otherwise compromised. Don't fall for these!

                    That's been going on for quite some time now... Considering the size of the platform they should have implemented something against this by now.

                      I almost fell for one of these feckers with a Fujifilm offer. They’re getting better and better, you really have to watch out.

                      PayPal goods and services saved my ass.

                      Use it or lose it.

                        @tody But unfortunately, they haven´t and these IH items come up regularly. The Primaloft jacket showed as first item on your pic was e.g. by Ro624, who has been banned.
