I hate that shit. People answer with “check page 72 of your car manual” and it’s like … you clearly pulled out the manual to pull that page number, I’m under my car right now, just copy the damned sentence.
The news article is a poor summary of a YouTube video. If you just care to see the door being opened, it’s around 5:13 youtu.be/EmqFoojMeD8 but the video itself is more interesting than that.

One of the forms of trust in Marketplace is how long the person’s Facebook account has existed, how many friends they have, and whether there are photos. If you create a burner account with no photo, no connections, and “Joined Facebook in 2024”, you’ll have a rough start.
I have had people show up who don’t match the account and they say it’s their partner or whatnot, never phased me.
If you do decide to make an account, push people to rate your interactions after you make a successful purchase. After 3 messages are sent back and forth, you get an option to rate the seller and buyer. Just tell them you rated them well and would like a rating as you are new to Marketplace.
I do hate Facebook for what it is, but even here in Canada where Kijiji was once king, Marketplace has taken over. I care about the used market (and the positive effects on the environment) too much to pass it up.
Very rarely are things lethal like that. Poison edibles tend to taste awful, and if you start with a small amount you will learn whether it makes you sick.

I’m guessing the answer is “no”, but thought I’d ask for advice here regardless....
