Anxious about not having a job and getting scammed
Someone on reddit said they would send me $120 through Payid so I gave him my details and I’m now really anxious I’m going to get scammed
He said he would help because I was saying about how I really need a job and stuff

Re: Anxious about not having a job and getting scammed
What were they going to do with the payID? Was it your phone number they wanted @ArraDreaming ?
Do you know whether it was a scam for real?

Re: Anxious about not having a job and getting scammed
I'm not sure how getting someone's phone number will be helpful @ArraDreaming . Then again, I'm not sure someone would just hand over money to a stranger?
It all sounds weird. Just look out for changes in bank statements etc even if it's a 1cent deduction from something strange.
