Heads up

Something fucky is going on with Facebook marketplace on the Facebook side.

I put something up to sell and it received over 50 views while it was still being reviewed. Then I got 2 random Indians asking me about it and where I lived.

I'm accustomed to scams but this is coming from whoever Facebook contracts to that manages marketplace.

Same thing happened with a relative. Very odd how it gets views when being reviewed
