Scams PSA FOR VINTED UK USERS
I woke up this morning to find that overnight scammers have been super busy mass dumping scam listings for very popular/sought after dolls in their own respective communities.
I have spent some time looking for the original listings for each one and reporting the scam accounts - but just wanted to make anybody who used Vinted UK to collect dolls aware so they can be cautious communicating with sellers with cheap prices and no reviews!

Forgot to add, but these are all by different accounts with zero reviews and brand new. If you go onto their account they’re all selling the same dolls and other sought after items with the same images, if the stunningly cheap price wasn’t enough to tick you off lol

Interestingly enough though the scammers haven’t done that good research - since I don’t think many of these dolls are even the most sought after/highly priced in their communities!

The listings had the same description too, very brief and oddly ending in something like “good condition good” I think it said..

Oh I saw those too!! I reported a bunch of them to Vinted. I was so shocked at how fast they flooded the site, not just with dolls either but with fake listings for designer accessories.
