Devon and Cornwall Police have received a number of reports of scams involving items advertised for sale on Facebook.
Persons have attended to collect items and agreed to pay by bank transfer, a confirmation of the transfer has been shown on a phone to the victim and items have then been taken before the payment is received, and the victim never receives the payment.
Please remain vigilant when selling or purchasing items online, always check and be completely satisfied the money is in your bank before you hand over goods – genuine buyers will accept that this is the correct practice.
If you have any information or concerns please phone 101 or make contact via the Devon & Cornwall Police website
