Reports indicate a persistent scammer targeting buyers on platforms like Vinted and Facebook, especially for GPU sales. Victims describe being pressured to pay outside official channels via calls or WhatsApp, leading to lost funds. Action Fraud has been notified by several, highlighting the need for collective reports to aid recovery. Never transact off-platform; stick to in-app payments for protection. If approached, block the number immediately and report to the site and authorities. Forward details to Action Fraud online or by phone to strengthen cases— the more reports, the better the chances of tracking this individual down.
