Social Media Scam
Throwback skates and accessories

Date	05/13/2025
Pseudonym	Throwback skates and accessories
Scam contents	“Throwback skates and accessories”, an admin of the Facebook group Vintage Skateboard Lovers and Collectors (OGs and Reissue). Offered to sell me a skateboard and some wheels for $300. I sent them $300 using Venmo to their handle kacey-cochran-2. After a couple of days of not hearing back from them I inquired when the shipment would be made. They replied telling me first thing Monday morning they would ship it out. After not hearing anything Monday morning I started to dig deeper into the profile and encountered many red flags I should have seen before entering this purchase agreement. The Facebook account is located in the country Cameroon, which is a massive red flag, and there are many other public posts on Facebook regarding the fraudulent nature of this group and this profile. I did not find any objectionable comments in the group itself because the scammer is the admin who can easily control Posts to the group. I made many comments on group posts about this fraudulent deal and within five minutes was kicked from the group andblocked. Avoid this group and this profile as they are completely fraudulent.
Comment / Review	Avoid the Facebook profile “Throwback skates and accessories”, and their Facebook group “Vintage Skateboard Lovers and Collectors (OGs and Reissue)” as they are all fraudulent scammers.
