Got asked my seller email by a buyer

Question

Hello everyone,

I ask sellers if this happened to you and how to solve the problem please.

A customer sent me the screenshot of his screen, saying that to procede to send me the order and buy my service, he is requested to insert MY email. 

Is it normal that this happens? 

Thank you very much

Nope, that's a scam.

How can you know?

Why would Fiverr need your email?

What these people do is pretend to be Fiverr and make you enter your card (and other) details to 'verify' yourself. None of it is real, it's all fake screenshots and emails.

Thank you for helping.

Unfortunately I have sent my email to this person, is there a way to report him to Fiverr and to delete the sent message?

 

Thank you

There should be a report spam button in the app / on the site, or you could write to CS directly. 

This will likely get you a warning though since you broke the TOS by sending in your email :( (but I think reporting them is best.)

I have so far received ONLY scam requests on Fiverr.

They need to do a better job at screening these idiots.

My response rate is affected and it's a pain to get rid of them.

Not happy so far with the fiverr experience.
