Have you been the victim of poshmark bullying? You're not alone.... My aunt recently opened up an account here, she just recently started buying used designer handbags to sell for a small profit. A few of the bags turned out not to be authentic, she's not a professional "purse buyer" so of course mistakes will be made.
Pat listed a Fendi Spy handbag and wallet bought from eBay. Wallet had tags and is authentic. She was informed by another posher that the handbag was not authentic because the tag was wrong. She changed the listing to say bag authenticity unknown. A few days later she deleted the listing all together. But kept the wallet listing stating, "authentic Fendi spy wallet for sale" I have the purse to match but can not verify authenticity, I can bundle if you'd like. Pat posted a picture of a LV purse bought on another site and @chirpchirp replied "not authentic" Pat deleted the listing. Then @chirpchirp proceeded to say that Pat's LV in a cream color was fake too. Pat has had the handbag for a long time, it's the only LV she's owned until she started buying used. Somewhere in-between she looked at another LV handbag listing, asking seller is bag authentic? " I can't take getting another replica." Seller informed Pat the bag was a replica. All of a sudden another user @timerrabbit made a posting stating "you're asking someone if a purse is authentic? But, you're selling fakes...." Then @chirpchirp , @timerrabbit and @raylynn32 went to Pat's listing of the cream colored Louis Vuitton handbag, calling her a liar and a crook among other things. Pat believed and still believes the bag to be authentic. She has checked the codes, stitching and leather, everything adds up. But @chirpchirp , @timerrabbit and @raylynn32 did not care, they posted nasty comments about her online jewelry store, calling her things junk and age. At this point Pat was very upset and felt ganged up on. She said a few nasty things back. Most could understand her frustration. Right? Pat informed her Daughter Amy about the altercation, Amy fired back with her own nasty comments. This went on back in forth for a couple days. Pat deleted her account all together because of the harassment. I'm not saying either of them were right in how they handled the situation but, when dealing with bullies you have to be just as hard on them or they will prey on you because they view you as weak. Clearly, what they thought when they teamed up on Pat...Amy made several new accounts because every time she posted something the users would post a nasty comment back then block her. Pat did some investigating and found other users these same users had ganged up on. Very frustrating. Both Amy and Pat received emails from Poshmark banning them from the site but,
no action was taken with @chirpchirp , @timerrabbit and @raylynn32 .
I've included photos of the messages sent back and forth between the 5. All were guilty in some way. Pat did not engage as much as Amy and the other users did. She did not use vulgar language in any way. Pat should not have been banned.
If anything all parties should have been equally reprimanded. If you've been a victim of Internet bullying by any of these users @chirpchirp , @timerrabbit or @raylynn32 , please inform Poshmark. Internet bullying is not ok and it's becoming a huge problem. Stand up for yourself and don't let anyone try to bring you down! Let's put a stop to Internet Bullying!

This fraud company is about to go public. Don't let that happen. People need to file their report appropriately to the Attorney General, FTC and Dept of corporation. They're causing a lot stress to both honest sellers and buyers. So follow these steps first and when enough people filed the same reports then the attorney general will take action.
