Facebook Marketplace reposting scam?
This is something new to me... My house flip has been on the market for a new weeks now. My wife was browsing the local Facebook Marketplace page and found our exact house, using our exact photos, listed for rent by some random guy in the Philippines!
We dug around further and found a couple more postings of the same thing! One guy even posted a screenshot of ANOTHER guy's repost, claimed it was a scam, and said to contact HIM instead!
I found this totally bizarre as I can't imagine any reason for doing this, other than trying to line up a renter before buying the property. If so, it doesn't seem like a very good strategy.
Has anyone ever seen this before? I'm genuinely puzzled as to what the possible endgame could be...
