Is it a Scammer?
I had a request for a booking for dog walking. This person requested 4 walks/week repeated weekly. They messaged me and said the time requested could be adjusted to whatever fits my schedule. They asked me where I was located. I answered but then received a message back stating that my texts came in “a zig zag” and if they could have my actual number. Without thinking anything of it I sent my number and again was asked where I was located. In a text this person gave me an EXACT address of a house outside of my town and said they would be moving here from Denver in a week and walks would need started 3 days after moving here. I looked up the address of the house which was in fact recently sold so I did a reverse image search of the profile picture and found this person was using pictures of a doctor located in California as their profile picture!!! Sitter and walkers.. please be careful and do your research before booking!!!!
Yes it’s a scam. Don’t give your number unless you have met them AND are hired THROUGH the site. I consider anybody trying to go off site with me a scammer.
