Hey so my friend just got scammed by a user by the name 'girlheyhey'. She sold her a Marc jacobs Stam bag and this person opened a case claiming it wasn't what was described... she then sent back a rando, no name lime green bag. So beyond letting you all know not to do business with this C-U - Next Tuesday, what should she do beyond just contacting poshmark. She's beyond mad and as her best friend I'm angry too.
Does anyone use Poshmark?

Honestly all you can do is email. They don't respond to Facebook or twitter and ignore you in social media.
Thanks pinky that's pretty much what I thought but in my solidarity anger I wanted to help her more.
wish there was more we could do
Hoping someone can help me with this. I usually just sell on Posh, I don't really buy. On 3 separate occasions I've sold some items and the buyer doesn't immediately accept and rate the purchase. I know the buyer has 3 days to accept and rate. If they don't then Posh will step in and release funds to the seller.
This is the 3rd time I've sold something and the buyer hasn't immediately accepted and rated. My items were delivered on Saturday and then today I received an email from Posh stating that my earnings were added to my balance and I could redeem my funds. BUT there was no rating from the buyer. My items show Delivered with no rating. It hasn't even been 3 days since the buyer received my items....so what happened? Can a buyer accept items and not rate? I thought buyers had to rate.
If anyone has any insight I'd totally appreciate it!

Buyers don't have to rate, I had a few not rate me.
Dang. Kind of makes me a little sad. I take my closet serious and I sell items that come from my own actual closet. Sometimes it's hard to part with my Loubs or my designer bags. And I try to be fair and sell at appropriate prices. I even put personal touches into my packaging and wrapping....a "thank you" would be nice. Or at least rating to know that the buyer liked what they got.
That's happened to me. I think people just want to buy and don't bother with leaving a feedback. I had someone buy and days later finally gave me a rating. Don't worry about it.
I usually don't let these things get under my skin, but there is a seller with high end replica shoes that has been selling on posh for MONTHS, and she still isn't gone. I've reported every listing she has at least 20 times, and her as a seller as well. I have been trying to warn buyers. Some of them said they went to a department store who told them the shoes were real so they are happy with their purchase.
Department stores notoriously authenticate wrong, and it drives me CRAZY! Anyways, I've emailed posh about this woman at least 5 times, and STILL NOTHING. Yesterday morning I spent over an hour writing up an email with links to her fakes, the fake websites she steals half of her photos from, and real versions so they can see the difference.
And yet...she is still there and selling!
I just don't know what to do anymore...it kills me seeing her shoes sell and knowing people are spending money (always under $500 of course) on fakes like that.

I don't know the seller you're talking about but I've made comments about my opinions of Poshmark for several years on the Coach subforum. I've reported hundreds (or more) of fakes over the years and have taken it a step further by sending very specific emails to TPTB at PM explaining why items have been reported and in all those years and hundreds of reports, I've NEVER seen PM remove a single listing! And as a result of their actions (or rather, inaction), I won't authenticate Poshmark listings. If the items are fake, they won't be removed anyway and if authentic, I don't want to help PM pad its own bottom line.
And to add insult to injury, not only does PM not remove fakes or act on reports but their "experts" have further scammed buyers of fakes by deeming those counterfeit items as authentic.
I think you warned me about some Chanel slingbacks she was selling!!! Thank you [emoji173]
Yea I remember you talking about this and the Coach situation. It's terrible what they are doing. I just can't sit back and watch people get constantly scammed. There are a few of us on there who help each other get fakes removed with their automated reports (since after so many people report it it will go away) and that has worked decent. But this one is terrible!
I hate that I care so much...I should just let it go, but when people are getting fooled, I just can't!
Ah really?? Im so glad you didn't buy from her! I have no idea how her closet is still up. It really is something else, and I think people are getting inaccurate "authentication" through other sources (like department stores or consignment stores) and it's not the truth.
I know what you're saying. I mostly sell on there and all they care about is their bottom line. They just want their 20% and that's it. I've always said they are there to be on the side of the buyer, not the seller.
I used to model some of my shoes because those listings seemed to generate more interest/sales. Then one day someone asked me to model a Brian Atwood pair that was super low cut that I described as something to the effect of showing major toe cleavage so not a pair for the more demure fashionistas... I always check (cough cough stalk) their own closets to see what kind of interactions they have with people--I try to stay away from problems
The user was actually a dude that posted lots of requests to ladies to model shoes, always shoes. Never made any purchases EXCEPT when shoes were really worn and beat up. He wanted shoes that were "smelly" specifically or something horrible like that. So (OF COURSE) then my mind went into overdrive and I googled his posh username... which he ALSO used for a Christian dating site AND a foot fetish porn hub/photo-sharing type forum. He had shared some NSFW shoe fetish pics and pics he had grabbed from various sites like eBay and posh.
I no longer model my shoes in my listings and don't honor requests to do so!! One bad banana had to ruin the bunch! [emoji13]
