Yep, it seems the College of Cardinals halted talking about the new pope designation for a day to treat this subject before all.

Furthermore, a$$hole has the tenacity to threaten to call the police (Told him to call the FBI while at it too) once you find out about his scam.

I will message him day and night until he cuts the line off. These motherfuckes think they have one up on everyone.

Hello Randy,

Thank you for contacting Kijiji Canada Support and firstly, I am very sorry to hear about your experience. We will certainly take appropriate action based on your report. Unfortunately, fraudsters are always looking for ways to circumvent our considerable safeguards on Kijiji.

These individuals are unable to communicate through Kijiji systems, but as Kijiji ads themselves, as well as phone numbers, are posted publicly, they attempt to exploit the availability of phone contact information. Their requests to communicate through email should be treated with much suspicion, as a legitimate user would have emailed you in the first place if it is their preference.

Typically, if you communicate with them over email, they will share a prepared script with a complex story detailing why they are not locally available for a transaction, and offering a proxy such as a shipping agent, courier, or secretary to inspect goods. The details are often elaborate; Greenpeace employees protecting the environment in far away lands, being stuck on an oil rig or in the middle of the Atlantic, or a member of the armed forced are just some of the many stories that these fraudsters will tell. They often will offer you significantly more than your asking price, ostensibly wishing to outbid all other interested parties. However, no real funds will be forthcoming. Generally they will prepare a fake (but convincing looking) PayPal, Western Union, or Moneygram receipt.

These attempts at fraud are best ignored Randy. Always remember, Kijiji does not have any buyer or seller protection programs, and is only designed for face to face meet-ups. Requests to exchange funds through a method other than in person should be treated with much suspicion. If these text messages persist, the best way to avoid them is to only distribute your number to those who reply to your ad through the Kijiji system, rather than posting it publicly.

To learn more about text message fraud, please visit our page in the help files: http://help.kijiji.net/ca/knowledgebase.php?article=165

On behalf of Kijiji, we are very sorry for any inconvenience or confusion that these messages may have caused. If you have any questions about what you consider suspicious behaviour, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Best regards,

...
Kijiji Community Support

Please let us know how we did today!

So they are orchestrating another pope lead ...

So that he can cover up the rest of the Catholic Church pedophiles and their scandals?  :-X

I suppose he must be the chosen one.  ???
