I posted earlier about not getting the sales I used to for my shop VintageVisionNOS. Got some nice advice here, but have gotten several spam contacts. They come in 2's. First says hi. Then followed something like How are you doing? I know now I need to mark them as spam, but I think people are trying to hack.
Put the messages in your spam folder.
They are actually trying to scam you. I personally think the first is to see if it an active account--then they start the scam. I would just send them to spam.
They are spammers. Possibly scammers. Certainly want you to pay them for some service. I have gotten them too. I called them a spammer and they got all huffy. There must be a new BS workshop on YouTube or wherever that suggests this. No.Go away. *Spam*. Maybe if they get enough spam reports etsy will block them.
