Hackers and thieves
When selling an item and receiving a response stating that a courier company is acting as an intermediary, and you have to provide your information to receive payment. This is a method to trick you! The hacker lock into your account and your account is cleaned out.
When you buy something especially on marketplace and the seller request upfront payment and will only provide a pickup address once the payment is visible in their account, rather walk away. They take your payment and pretend that they have no previous correspondence from you. I had an unfortunate experience with a person selling bird netting in Birchville Upper Hutt. He did not want to give me any more information after payment has been done and pretend that he doesn't recall any messages from me prior.
New Zealand?
Is this NZ or some alternative 3rd world reality? No lamb in any shop in Wgtn/NZ? at Christmas! Supermarkets have stopped selling even sliced lamb! I rang every supermarket, butchers and Mad Butcher. Most had none; some only shaved, tough old, shoulder chops needing 8 hours slow cooking. I was repeatedly told we cant get it! Some said its too dear to stock!
Next thing we know the supermarkets will be importing our lamb from UK at half the price.
Time to reinstate CARP? (campaign against rising prices)
Try to have a happy, alternative, Christmas.
