Pretty much every reply ive had on here for something im sellng has been a scammer messaging me

This website is so bad for scammers that i no longer advertise on here which is a shame as Road.cc members miss out on some good deals

Yes, if you reply you'll just get a load of rubbish asking for you account details, password, etc. Are you selling on road.cc? I think that's what you mean. I got bombarded with them, and annoyingly I couldn't delete the ad even when I sold the item. I just blocked their email address.
