来自奥尔德姆的丹妮尔·皮克特讲述了她如何给一名男子开门，对方声称已向她转账400英镑购买手机，但款项迟迟未到账后，威胁便接踵而至。

一名女子讲述了自己在Facebook Marketplace上出售手机时遭遇诈骗的经历：在被骗走400英镑后，诈骗者竟威胁称“我会让你生不如死”，并嚣张表示“我知道你住在哪里”。

这场噩梦般的遭遇始于奥尔德姆的丹妮尔·皮克特（Danielle Pickett）为出售手机而通过网站与一名她以为是女性的买家交谈后，打开家门迎接一名骑着电动滑板车的男子前来取货。该男子向她出示了看似合法的转账凭证，随后她交出了手机。

但一天后，这笔钱仍未到账，丹妮尔（Danielle）便再次联系买家表达担忧。对方坚称这“百分之百不是”诈骗，并承诺会尽快回来“处理此事”。

然而由于买家与款项均未出现，丹妮尔（Danielle）再次发消息催促，却导致事态恶化。"再耍小聪明，就别怪我不去你家找你了，"买家写道，随后又发出阴险的威胁。

当丹妮尔（Danielle）表示将联系警方时，该账号回复她："随你便，但记住我知道你住哪儿，我会让你的日子生不如死。"

然而丹妮尔（Danielle）并未退缩，她将家中监控拍到的该男子出现的画面分享至社交媒体，同时上传了对方在门口向她展示的所谓400英镑转账确认截图——后经怀疑系伪造。

丹妮尔表示，事件发生后，她在社交媒体上分享了此事，随后有多名女性联系她，声称她们也在查德顿地区遭到同一名男子的骚扰。

丹妮尔在接受《曼彻斯特晚报》采访时表示："他最初用一个女性账号发消息询问手机的事，我在周日跟进此事。我们约定下午2点交易，那位'女士'说会让儿子过来取货。"

他显然已经到场并仔细检查了手机，感到满意后完成了转账。我通常对识别骗局相当警觉，但这次交易看起来真实可信。他还向我展示了屏幕，显示款项已成功转出，并附有参考编号。

我们在门口站了很久，款项迟迟未到账，但我已看到带有参考编号的确认信息，因此觉得放心。对方看起来值得信赖且行事正当。

丹妮尔（Danielle）在Facebook Marketplace上挂售的iPhone，买家承诺支付的5400英镑款项隔夜仍未到账。她联系了名为梅根（Megan）的买家账户，对方坚称已联系银行处理，并承诺若问题未解决次日早晨将以现金支付。

截至周一（即交易平台协商后的第三天），丹妮尔再次联系买家时，对方承诺会“准时”在上午11点左右到访——但最终仍未现身。

“我不在银行工作，但如果你不相信我，那是你自己的事，”买家说道。当丹妮尔（Danielle）威胁要报警时，对方回应称：“你爱叫谁叫谁，这是民事纠纷懂不懂？继续耍小聪明的话，我可就要上门找你了。”

丹妮尔表示：“当他告诉我他在国民银行开户时，我就开始起疑了，因为我发现支付确认页面看起来非常不同。我感觉自己被骗了。”

我当时感到非常不安，但被告知他们会来处理此事。然而他突然变脸，开始威胁我。我表示如果他执意不来解决，我将报警并在社交媒体上曝光此事，防止他再伤害其他人。

就在那时，他开始扬言说已经知道我的住处，能让我的生活生不如死。这种人身威胁侵犯了我的安全空间和家庭庇护。

这令人不安，我本不该有这种感觉。一个素不相识的男人竟知道我的姓名和住址，还发来那样的信息，让我如坐针毡。我虽坚强，但此事仍让我心神不宁。

我的三条爱犬就在身边，家是我的骄傲与慰藉。车子停在车道上。但想到他是否会回来，或变本加厉，这种未知令人恐惧。

她曾致电大曼彻斯特警方投诉，称两天内无警员到场与她沟通，并被告知若遇险情应直接拨打紧急电话999。

她补充道："我以前也在 Marketplace 上买过东西，但从未想过自己会成为被骗的那个人。有时候我们就是太容易轻信他人。现在我下定决心要查清这家伙的底细，他这次可惹错人了。这次教训真是让我吃足了苦头。"

大曼彻斯特警方证实已收到相关投诉。据了解，该犯罪报告正被分配给一名警官进行调查。

Facebook母公司Meta表示，该平台今年已推出多项“反诈骗功能”。对于社交媒体网站监测到存在可疑行为的账户，系统会设置验证关卡，用户必须通过验证才能继续使用Marketplace交易功能。

Marketplace Messenger还会通过行为分析工具和消息数据信号，将含有可疑元素的账户发送的信息过滤至垃圾邮件文件夹，以识别高风险账户。卖家不会收到这些信息的通知。

Facebook提醒买卖双方注意核查对方个人资料是否为新注册或不完整，这可能是诈骗账户的特征；建议查看网络卖家的历史评价以了解其他客户的反馈，并坚持在公共场所验货后再完成交易。同时推荐使用PayPal等具备强力保护机制的支付方式。

Danielle Pickett, from Oldham, described how she opened her front door to a man who convinced her he had transferred her 05400 for the phone but when the money failed to appear, the threats started

A woman has told how selling her phone on Facebook Marketplace led to her being scammed out of 05400 before the scammer told her I will make your life a living hell and I know where you live.

The nightmare ordeal saw Danielle Pickett, from Oldham, open her front door to a man on an e-scooter to collect the phone - after chatting to someone she thought was a woman on the site about the purchase. The man showed her what seemed like legitimate proof of the funds being sent to her and handed over the phone.

But a day later the money had still not landed in her account and Danielle went back to the buyer to raise her concerns. She was assured that it One hundred percent wasnt a scam and the buyer promised to return and sort it as soon as possible.

However as the buyer and money both failed to appear causing Danielle to message them again, prompting things to get nasty. "Keep acting smart and I will not go to your home address, the buyer wrote, before adding a sinister threat.

When Danielle stated she would be contacting the police, the account then told her: "You do whatever you want, just remember I know where you live and I will make your life a living hell."

However Danielle was not put off and shared home CCTV footage of the man appearing at her house to social media as well as a picture of the 05400 bank transfer confirmation he showed her at her doorstep - later suspected to have been fake.

Following the incident, Danielle said she has been contacted by multiple women since sharing it on social media, claiming they were also targeted by the same man in the Chadderton area.

Speaking to the Manchester Evening News , Danielle said: "He first messaged using a woman's profile asking about the phone, and I followed it up on Sunday. We agreed 2pm, and the 'woman' said she would be sending her son over.

"He's obviously arrived and checked the phone over, was happy, and did the transfer. I am usually quite open to spotting a scam, but it looked genuine. He showed me his screen which indicated the payment had been sent and there was a reference number.

"We were stood at the door for ages and no payment had come through, but I had seen confirmation with a reference so I felt safe. He seemed trustworthy and legitimate."

Overnight the 05400 payment for the iPhone , which was listed by Danielle on Facebook Marketplace, still failed to land in her bank account. She reached out to the account, named Megan, who insisted they had called the bank and would return to pay in cash the following morning if not resolved.

By Monday, two days after the marketplace exchange, Danielle then reached out again and was told by the buyer that they would visit at around 11am 'on the dot' - however still didn't show.

"I don't work in the banks but if you don't believe me, that's your own business," the buyer said. When Danielle then threated to call the police, they responded: "You call whoever you want this is a civil matter do you not understand this? Keep acting smart I will not go to your home address."

Danielle said: "I had started to get sceptical as he told me he banked with Nationwide, and I realised the confirmation page for payment looked really different. I had a feeling I'd been done over."

"I felt really uneasy but was told they'd come and sort it out. Then he just turned, making threats. I said if he wasn't going to bother coming then I'd tell the police and share it on social media to stop him doing it to other people.

"That's when he started saying that now he knew where I lived and that he could make my life a living hell. It's a personal threat that invaded my safe space and my home.

"It's unsettling, and I shouldn't have to feel like that. For a man I don't know to know my name and address and to send a message like that makes me feel on edge. I am tough, but it still made me feel uneasy.

"I have my three dogs here and my home is my pride and joy. My car is on the drive. It's the unknown of whether he would come back or actually take it further. It's scary to think about."

She called Greater Manchester Police and since made a complaint after claiming no officers came out to speak to her within two days and told her to 'call 999' instead if she was in danger.

She added: "I have bought things from Marketplace before, and you never expect you'll be the person getting scammed. Sometimes we are just too trusting. I am so set on getting to the bottom of who this guy is, and he has messed with the wrong person now. I learnt the hard way."

Greater Manchester Police confirmed a complaint was submitted to them. It's understood the crime report is being allocated to an officer to investigate.

Meta, which owns Facebook, said the platform has launched a number of 'anti-scam features' this year. Verification checkpoints are put in place for accounts engaging in suspicious behaviour picked up by the social media site, which they must pass to continue using Marketplace.

Marketplace Messenger also filters messages from accounts that have suspicious elements into a spam folder using behaviour tools and message data signals to pick out risky accounts. Sellers will not be notified about these messages.

Facebook urges sellers or buyers to check if the profile of the other person appears new or incomplete, as this could be a sign that the account has been set up for scamming, check reviews of the online sellers to see what previous customers have said and insist on meeting in a public place to view the product before completing a transaction. Payment options with strong protections like PayPal are also advised.
