Phishing Warning!

It has come to our attention that some members have been sent a message through the contact form on the GoJD online marketplace, Odissa.

Typical wording of the scam is:

“CAUTION:  This message is from the official ODISSA tech support bot. All data is protected.

Dear user, your item has been sold!

To confirm the buyer's order and receive payment for the item sold follow the instructions:

1. Click the link below  2. Press the Verify button  3. Follow the tech support instructions on the verification page.

Please confirm order details via the private form: (links follow)”

___________________________________________________

Orders through Odissa are generally paid for straight away and members receive the funds directly in to their PayPal account without the need to request it.

Phishing scams are messages intended to steal personal and financial information by pretending to be from trusted sources, like banks, vendors, or even internal departments. These messages often look real enough to trick people into sharing sensitive data or downloading harmful files. 

Please be careful of potential phishing emails that may ask you to click on suspicious links or provide personal information.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
