Oksjonikeskkondades liiguvad petupakkumised
"Esitatakse inglisekeelne palve eseme ostmiseks. Pakutakse oksjonil eseme ostmist oluliselt suurema summaga kui see tavaliselt maksab. Soovitakse kulleriga koheselt kaupa saada ning raha lubatakse saata läbi panga. Imelikuks teeb selle tehingu pakkumise veel see, et sisesatatud on palved Nigeeria IP aadressilt," ütles Consolidated Auctions OÜ juhatuse liige Toomas R. Raist.
Tema sõnul on sellised pakkumised Osta.ee lehelt eemaldatud, kuid ilmselt proovitakse õnne ka teistes keskkondades.
"Soovitame kõikidel hoiduda taolistest tehingutest. Alati kasutage Osta.ee tehingutel deposiitmakset, kui te ei ole kindel ostja või müüja aususes," soovitas Raist.
