Is anybody getting phishing messages on MP today or recently?

I got one set (2 messages) this morning from “Technical support” telling me I sold something but have to click the link to get the shipping address. That was so obvious phishing, just clicked the “Report Message” button.

Then this afternoon, I got another 2 sets, from “MakerPlace Notification”, same thing telling me my listings have be “hidden” and have to verify to regain visibility. I did a inconito search on MakerPlace and my listings are visible. Tried to report the messages again, but got a notice saying something went wrong, couldn’t report them.

Maybe there are bunch of sellers all were trying to report those messages, and broke the reporting function?

I’m getting more phishing message on MP than sales. Why MP couldn’t stop them? :angry:

2 today. Both are Phishing. Since you have to sign in to message a seller it seems they should easily be able to delete the bad actor account but maybe they just keep creating new buyer accounts.

I got the same crap today. I tried reporting it at least 10 times in the past several hours but got this every time:

Same for me with the long messages, but I was able to report the shorter messages (the one with just the link).
