Howdy,
I don't really know if this is the right place to post this.
I have been having issues when responding to classified ads here on the Cafe.
I will send multiple emails to a seller stating that I will purchase what they are selling, but I will never hear back and the item will still be listed for sale. I am thinking that the following might have something to do with it.
Yesterday I responded to an ad for some picks. When I had got home from class I noticed that I received a response stating that they were mine and to send a PayPal payment. So I sent the payment. A little while later I received an email from the seller stating that there was a phishing warning attached to my email and that he got scared and sold them to someone else. He than refunded my payment.
I know that a phishing warning gets attached to an email when you respond to a classified ad here, but according to the seller my email was the only one that he had received that had the warning attached (I was told that the person he re-sold them to didn't have the warning attached?) and that he has done many transactions via the cafe, but has never seen this warning before.
I guess that my question is, why do some people have a warning attached when responding to ads and others do not?
Thanks,
Ryan
