英国的转售骗局激增,使得37%的用户被骗,往往在向外部平台付款后收到假货或一无所获。 A surge in resale scams in the UK has left 37% of users defrauded, often receiving fake goods or nothing after paying outside platforms.

据Experian说,Vinted、脸书市场和eBay等转售平台的骗局激增,使得37%的英国人报告欺诈行为,受害者经常收到假冒物品,例如一个危险的假冒Dyson Airwrap,在平台外付钱或从不收货后,便吸烟。 A surge in scams on resale platforms like Vinted, Facebook Marketplace, and eBay has left 37% of Britons reporting fraud, according to Experian, with victims often receiving counterfeit items—such as a dangerous fake Dyson Airwrap that smoked—after paying outside the platform or never receiving goods. Scammers使用价格低廉、照片差以及迫不得已的压力来欺骗买家,特别是年轻用户。 Scammers use low prices, poor photos, and urgent pressure to trick buyers, especially younger users. 专家们敦促审查卖方概况,索取产品视频,并使用安全付款。 Experts urge reviewing seller profiles, requesting product videos, and using secure payments. 如果欺诈,用户应向平台报告,寻求退款,并追索回款或第75节索赔。 If defrauded, users should report to the platform, seek refunds, and pursue chargebacks or Section 75 claims. 虽然平台声称大多数交易是安全的,并提供争议调解,但一些用户在保护窗口之外竭力寻求支持,尽管消费者团体帮助在特定案件中追回资金。 While platforms claim most transactions are safe and offer dispute mediation, some users struggle to get support outside protection windows, though consumer groups have helped recover funds in select cases.
