selling bullion under spot. someone said they got scammed over 1k. all the admin profiles are likely fake. they always post things under spot which is the red flag. if they get shut down they likely make new profiles, a new group, and start over again.
 
Fraud is fraud,
if its performed: here (a small site with dilligent members),
vs: ebay (a large marketplace with protections in place)
vs: facebook (a global, corporate owned, bohemuth, with the responsability of a dog walker over a sidewalk poop)
The parties with ownership need to be accountable and respont to incidence of fraud being performed via their platforms.

Lets face it, the visability of activities on meta is geared entirely towards exploiting your data for advertising revenue, not for anything to do with ethical trade practices. IMO: that marketplace is worse than Tortuga or Port royale in the 17th century.
I wouldn't buy glycophosphate from there.
 
I'm a member of a legitimate FB bullion sales group and it seems to work well and there are plenty of honest people in there.
The amount of fake FB bullion groups is growing by the week, I've joined a few and lurk in the background and private message people who haven't spotted the warning signs.
I'd like to hope I've saved quite a few people from being scammed. If you call the scammers out in public, they block your account and delete the message.
Reporting the site to FB does nothing sadly.
