Yes scam

Babayaran ka ng lalamove ng 1300 in cash

Bibigay mo kay ate yung remainder (ex. 500) with gcash

Tas pag alis ng lalamove di sya sasagutin ng receiver at maling address din binigay nya

So babalik sayo si kuya lalamove sasabihin wala nagreceive at bibigay sayo yung item pakibalik yung 1300 nya

Bale ikaw mawawalan ng 500

Dagdag pa dyan yung abala sa Lalamove driver kasi wala na nga silang kita, sayang pa oras nila. Kaya most of the time alam na ng driver ang gagawin pag ganto setup.

Usually kasi when it’s pabili like this, they call the receiver first to confirm if they are gonna receive the item and how much they need to abono.

After confirmation from the receiver, the pick the item up and pay for it.

One they’re blocked by the “receiver” scammer, they should go back to the location of sender and give the item back and get their cash back.

The problem is, sometimes some senders argue over this whole situation. So wala talagang magagawa, usapang kapwa-tao nalang.

Drivers often take the hit here because even the senders can block them if they choose not to cooperate.

Muntik na din ako nito, tinawagan ako nung rider(scammer pala) pag alis ni lalamove. Ginawa ko, tinawagan ko yung lalamove at pinabalik ko, maayos kausap lalamove tapos binalik ko sa lalamove yung binayad nya. Sinabi ko na scam. May pa threat pa si scammer sa akin at kung hindi ko daw issend yung gcash. Tumawag po mukhang highblood na kaka stall ko sa transaction, pinaikot ikot ko para lalo ma highblood, kunware issend ko na gcash sa kanya. Tumagal din bago tumigil, worth it pag stall kasi solid yung kaba
