A policeman has posted his phone on the auction site, he was contacted by a man that claimed that he was waiting for immediate shipment, as he had just made a transfer for the item on display.

The policeman replied to the buyer that the shipment would only take place when the transfer was credited to his bank account. Meanwhile, the buyer sent him a link to the page where the transaction confirmation was supposed to be, quoting “I paid. To receive the money, click on the link and confirm the order. The courier will contact you after confirmation.” In addition, the buyer threatened to report the matter to the police if the seller did not send him the “purchased” phone.

Remember not to rashly click on links received from third parties, in this case the scammer probably wanted to hack the seller’s account.
The information collected by the policeman allowed charges to be brought against the fraudster and brought the case to court.
