There has been increasing number of posts and reports (here and on ) of UPSers getting messages from people requesting them to scan barcodes they send them in return for payment.
It should go without saying that this is a scam and even if you do get paid you will also get caught. All the varieties of scanners supply facility and employee information on all scans made by them and it is really simple to track down someone making fraudulent scans and this would likely get the employee fired for dishonesty with little union protection.
Banning these accounts stops nothing if they're not publicly active in the subreddit, so we mods can't do anything about them. You may want to get them booted off of Reddit entirely and to do so:
Copy the URL of the private message
-
Go to
-
Select I want to report other issues
-
Select It's a transaction for prohibited goods or services
Feel free to do whatever else you want to these accounts.
