Donedeal Scammers

Nearly every ad I put up I get emailed by scammers residing outside the state. If donedeal only allowed people from within Ireland to contact sellers it would eliminate most scams. Block any IP that is not Irish. Please contact them and suggest this.

Any legit buyer will contact you via text anyway not email.

I only answer phonecalls when I'm selling something, I only ring people when I'm buying something. Text is for Shakespeare and the Daily Sport.
