Now this is strange. Did anybody else receive a messsage like this one?
Hey Relztrah
I was looking at a few of your products especially [an item on my Wish List] & wanted to know if you are able to sell these to our customers.
[his website] is interested in selling your products on our marketplace. We are a marketplace where sellers like you can list and sell your products to our USA & Canada customer base for free. The reason we contacted you is that our customers are searching for products similar to yours & not having many options.
We would like to invite you to be a seller on [his website] for free & we are looking forward to collaborating with you since we feel your products can sell with our customers.
He goes on to list his contact information. Of course I’m not going to respond becaue it doesn’t pass the “stink test”. But still, how can somebody who apparently isn’t even a member of Bonanza access my Wish List and then send this Bonanza message to me?

Hello Relztrah,
Thanks for letting us know about this issue. We have permanently suspended this user from Bonanza, and if you see anything like this in the future, we recommend not responding to them and to contact support to let us know about it. Solicitation, especially to outside websites is definitely not allowed on Bonanza.
Thanks!

Hi,
Yes, I did. User had just joined on the 7th of June. I forwarded it to Bonanza support. [email protected]
That user was removed. That might be why you’re not seeing them anymore. You can FWD suspect things to the Bonanza team. They are always helpful etc.
Happy sales!

I rec’d it too, but didn’t respond. Then, I wondered if I’d get dinged for ignoring a message.
I’ll just delete it.

Anyone can see your wish list whether they are logged in or logged out.
I’d rather have mine be private. This would be a good idea to add this to the suggestion thingy (I forget what it is called).

Hello, I got the same email and it’s a scam. I get one of these email every year. When you get a email like this always do a background check on it.
Have a Wonderful Day!!!

Remember these tips:
- Use links to other sources to support your opinions
- Use examples where possible
- Put yourself in the inquirers shoes: what extra info would be helpful?
Should I post a comment or an answer?
You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?
Post an answer for:
- Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question
Post a comment for:
- "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
- When you would like the original poster to provide more details
- When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
