    Scammers in your PMs - PM function and Buy/Sell Access

    We are aware there has been a recent infestation of these buggers.

    They will identify someone with a listing in the Buy/Sell section and send a PM suggesting you contact a supposed 3rd party via email to buy/sell your item. If anyone requests this - please report using the report button, they are a scammer. The report button is the little triangle with an exclamation mark in it, on the left hand side of the grey bar under each post.



    We are working on changing some settings to exclude this behaviour, however this may or may not temporarily affect PM function for other users. This may also affect access to the Buy/Sell section for a short period of time for some users.

    If you experience either of these issues, please just wait 1-2 hours and it will resolve itself and will not happen again. Don't worry about it.

    Hi Admin. Just come back to look at buy/sell and it’s not there. Noting this thread from over a month ago. It’s the first time I’ve visited in a couple months. What to do

    Apologies for flogging a dead horse, though I'm unable to see the buy sell section after a few days on here

    Hi @jobasa. It just takes time, safety precaution due to the number of scammers we've encountered.

    How long did it take for it to show up for you? I just registered and am trying to get access, seamed to show up for my flatmate after just scrolling through some threads but that hasn’t worked for me..

    Get involved in the forum. It shows you are genuine. I think people are a bit sick of people sighning up just for the buy and sell. This is a community not just another social media site and the buy and sell comes with contributing to the community.

    There’s more on here than just a buy sell page. Yes the buy sell page would be good. But have a look round there’s actually a lot of interesting information and knowledge. It will come with time. I’ve been here almost 2 weeks and still waiting to be able to private message but I know it will come eventually
