  • 0 Beware of Facebook Market Scams

    Facebook Marketplace Scams… Dyfed Powys Police would like to remind people to be careful when selling or buying items on Facebook Marketplace and not fall for the tricks used by criminals to scam people out of money. A common ploy by criminals is they state that they are sending a courier to pick the goods, and the courier is bringing the money with them. The criminal then states that the courier firm will be in contact to organise collection. The seller then receives an invoice from a courier company (normally a falsified invoice purporting to be from a well-known courier company). The criminal states that the courier will bring the purchase price plus the extra money from the invoice with them, but this is obviously a lie.   Top Tips to stay safe on Facebook Marketplace. • Never send items before you have received ‘verified’ payment. • Sometimes fake emails are sent purporting to be from the buyer’s bank stating that money will not be released until proof of purchase has been received – this is a scam, the email is not from the buyer’s bank. • Always check that the money has arrived and is cleared in your account and that it is not still ‘awaiting confirmation’. • Do not use unusual payment methods – only use Facebook Checkout, PayPal or cash when using Facebook Marketplace. • If you use PayPal – never select family and friends payments – this will completely negate your ability to get a refund. • Be wary of anyone that overpays and then requests a refund immediately. Always let the money clear to your account first and then enter into dialogue about mistaken overpayment. It is very rare for someone to overpay, but criminals use this ploy a lot. • If a purchaser offers you a part-exchange, make sure that they are not offering you stolen goods in exchange. • If you meet-up in person with any purchaser on Facebook, think of your own safety – meet in a well-lit, public place and try to have a family member or friend accompany you.       Sgamiau Facebook Marketplace… Hoffai Heddlu Dyfed Powys atgoffa pobl i fod yn ofalus wrth brynu a gwerthu eitemau ar Facebook Marketplace a pheidio â chael eu dal gan y triciau mae troseddwyr yn eu defnyddio i sgamio pobl o’u harian. Dyfais gyffredin gan droseddwyr yw dweud eu bod yn anfon cludwr i gasglu’r nwyddau, a bod y cludwr yn dod â’r arian gyda nhw. Mae’r troseddwr wedyn yn dweud y bydd y cwmni cludo’n cysylltu i drefnu casglu’r nwyddau. Yna bydd y gwerthwr yn derbyn anfoneb gan y cwmni cludo (fel arfer anfoneb ffug yn honni bod o gwmni cludo adnabyddus). Mae’r troseddwr yn dweud y bydd y cludwr yn dod â’r pris prynu a’r arian ychwanegol o’r anfoneb gyda nhw, ond yn amlwg celwydd yw hwn.   Sut i gadw’n ddiogel ar Facebook Marketplace. • Peidiwch byth ag anfon eitemau cyn i chi dderbyn taliad wedi ei ‘wirio’. • Weithiau mae negeseuon ebost ffug yn cael eu hanfon yn honni eu bod o fanc y prynwr ac yn nodi na fydd arian yn cael ei ryddhau hyd nes y derbynnir prawf o’r prynu - sgâm yw hon, dydy’r ebost ddim oddi wrth fanc y prynwr. • Gwiriwch bob tro bod yr arian wedi ei dderbyn a’i glirio yn eich cyfrif ac nad yw o hyd ‘yn disgwyl ei gadarnhau’. • Peidiwch â defnyddio dulliau anghyffredin o dalu - defnyddiwch Facebook Checkout, PayPal neu arian parod yn unig wrth ddefnyddio Facebook Marketplace. • Os ydych yn defnyddio PayPal – peidiwch byth â dethol taliadau teulu a ffrindiau – bydd hyn yn llwyr negyddu eich gallu i gael ad-daliad. • Byddwch yn wyliadwrus o unrhyw un sy’n gordalu ac yna’n gwneud cais am addaliad ar unwaith. Sicrhewch eich bod bob amser yn gadael i’r arian glirio yn eich cyfrif yn gyntaf ac yna dechreuwch drafodaeth ynghylch gordalu drwy gamgymeriad. Mae’n anghyffredin iawn i rywun ordalu, ond mae troseddwyr yn defnyddio’r ddyfais hon yn aml. • Os bydd prynwr yn cynnig rhan-gyfnewid i chi, sicrhewch nad ydynt yn cynnig nwyddau wedi eu dwyn i chi yn gyfnewid. • Os ydych yn cwrdd yn bersonol gydag unrhyw brynwr ar Facebook, ystyriwch eich diogelwch eich hun – cyfarfyddwch mewn lle cyhoeddus wedi ei oleuo’n dda a cheisiwch gael aelod o’r teulu neu ffrind gyda chi.
