So! I've just been conned! £490! As a person, I feel miserable! As a "businessman" I feel stupid and As a "newbie" I have lost confidence in the Etsy platform! However, I have learnt a massive lesson! Don't get excited about the "sale" and start pressing buttons!
Ok, so this morning I received a message from "Matt" saying that he had bought one of my posters, with a link to set up payments. This is the scam! Looking at it now, I should have known that anyone asking how much you have in your account, isn't Etsy! But, I'm new, I was excited and I have no idea how Etsy works!
Be careful guys! There are some horrible people out there!
