Scam Details

On 22th June, I am selling in Carousell for the first time. A user name on carousell charles.jamea59292 pm me and asked to write back to him.

He asked me for details (bank name, bank account, my name, email). At night time, I receive an email (in junk ) asking me for refund of RM1000 due to an overcharge from my account. It was known that the transaction must be made within 30 minutes or else legal action be taken.

Luckily, I had do some researches and found some experience victims. No money was transferred into my account actually.
