Posted a Facebook post for gymnastics equipment really cheap and in good quality. I said I'd buy it and the woman hurriedly sent me a deposit. Before paying, I googled the phone number and got this website. It seemed fishy to s**** with, but I did my diligence and asked enough questions to get enough information not to pay. Then her Facebook page disappeared.
