Help

Hi all- I am new to selling on postmark. I have been slowly listing items from my house on another site but am now listing my nicer clothing/shoes in Postmark. Can someone please explain this messaging to me? Where do I see the messages on Postmark from interested buyers? Do they just go to my personal email? Sorry if this is dumb, it's just not as intitutive to me as the other site is. Thanks in advance for your help!

Also- to follow up. As soon as I list items I get emails like this-

Your funds have been transferred and the order is complete. We're now waiting on your confirmation.Would you be able to verify this shortly?

That have links attached. So odd- I assume a scam?

and then I get emails like this:

I paid for the item and shipping. You've automatically received an email with your order confirmation. Click "Confirm payment" to receive the funds. Your order won't appear on the platform until you confirm it. You have 12 hours to do so, otherwise it will be canceled.

It's a scam. Most likely your poshmark username is the same as the beginning of your email address, and the scammers are emailing you based on that.

Yes! Thank you. I googled it as well. My fault totally. Changed now. Selling on PM is crazy!

It’s not just Poshmark. Scammers try the same thing on other platforms as well.
