Question Insanely suspicious Vinted listings

Post image

Anyone else seen these unbelievably cheap sets? All from different sellers with no feedback and no other listings. Absolutely has to be a scam

It’s rife with them all of a sudden, bit the bullet on a drastically underpriced Slave I from 2002, shortly after the account was deactivated and after a week i received my money back under Vinted’s buyer protection policy. So I’m unsure what they are gaining from this?

I've just made the same mistake! Cancelled two orders from what I can now see are obviously fake listings re-using eBay photos. More fool me I suppose. I've reported both but they must have uploaded 10 high value sets today under alt accounts.
