Hello my fellow Poshers! Some of you have noticed that my account has been restricted the past few days and my listings have disappeared. What happened was... Because of all the TRADES I've done on here, using Poshmark's shipping label and cancelling it, they ultimately restricted my account. I couldn't comment/make new listings/share any items! I'll continue to explain in my comments, but PLEASE TAG ALL YOUR FELLOW TRADERS ON THIS POST TO WARN THEM BEFORE THEY GET RESTRICTED LIKE I DID!!!

Okay, so what has happened was... One day I was on Poshmark and commented on someone's post, ultimately wanting to trade, of course. Then, the "blocked" message showed up on my screen. I was really confused because I have NEVER talked/commented on that user's items before.So, I let it go and got on with my browsing. Then, another "blocked" message showed up and I thought this was getting strange.

I went on my email to contact Poshmark and I got an email basically saying, THEY RESTRICTED MY ACCOUNT DUE TO TRADING. Poshmark's Moderator Team has caught on to the buying & cancelling of shipping labels for trades. They sent me an email saying that they look at this as fraud and FINED ME for all the shipping labels I didn't pay for. I was literally freaking out thinking I owed like $100 to Posh, but lucky enough I only had to pay for 6 shipping labels.
gl_closet
They fined me $29.94! More lucky of me, I had 3 pending sales which added up to $29.10 and Posh was nice enough to waive the $0.84! I kept emailing Poshmark back they said there were 3-4 options to pay for my fine. 1. Take it from my Posh balance • 2. 🅿️🅿️ them the fine • 3. Send a check • 4. Or just not paying it & never using Poshmark again | So I just told them to take it from my fee and within two days they took it from my balance and I JUST GOT MY ACCOUNT BACK LIKE AN HOUR AGO.
gl_closet
I haven't been on Poshmark for about a whole week. THIS IS A WARNING TO ALL MY FELLOW POSHERS WHO LOVE TRADING AND USING THAT $3 AND CANCEL METHOD, you guys should stop NOW or else your fine is going to get GREATER and GREATER. Further continuation of this act will lead to Poshmark ban! It's not worth losing my account.
gl_closet
PLEASE TAG YOUR FRIENDS, FOLLOWERS, FOLLOWINGS, & EVERYONE. I don't want anyone else to pay a hefty fine for doing what they love! Thanks for reading this super long experience, hoping to save a lot you guys! 🌸🌸🌸

Wow! Hank you @gl_closet

@aubvandermolen I would've made another account as well, but I worked WAAAAY to hard for "gl_closet" to happen with the stats and such. Also, I am close to my one year anniversary! Lol. @bri_shoshweet I feel like I did more than 6 trades using their shipping label, but they only charged me for 6! :)
gl_closet
@katekarpenko yup, you are trading the correct way! @missmorgan04 of course, i think everyone deserves a warning. i didn't want this happening to more people, being fined sucks. @maddluv yup, as long as you do the $7.99 way!
gl_closet
@kaclittle @clarejoy @sky_8 @bri_shoshweet @katieclewett @katiefleming777 you're very welcome ladies! just thought everyone should get a heads up before they keep going bananas with their trades, lol. Please tag more of your friends/followers and share this on your pages to let more and more people know. I'd really appreciate it!
ashlyn_rose
The most times you usually can do it is about 5. But can't you just make a new posh acc I they ban you??
gl_closet
@ashlyn_rose you can only trade 5 times? Lol I know someone who traded 9 times using the "fraud" way and they got fined like $45 😬
ashlyn_rose
it let me do it 5 times with the 3$ then canceling it but at the 6th time they emAiled me and I had to pay so I only do about 5 trades every couple months or I just make new accounts so I don't have to pay😂😂
lissuhhmichelle
Oh my gosh. Thanks for tagging me!
gl_closet
@lissuhhmichelle of course!! Please share ☺️
gl_closet
@ashlyn_rose LOL wow do you use the same card info also?
ashlyn_rose
no I don't have a credit card or anything I'm not really allowed to bc I'm inly 15😂😂 but I put all of my money on visas and I get like a new one very month so posh doesn't know😂😂
gl_closet
@ashlyn_rose hahahha oh dang!
emmaline_b

mimikinsss
So scary!!! Ive been trading so much! Hopefully i dont get cought 😖😖😖
gl_closet
@mimikinsss cross ya fingers!!
posher_21
Thanks for telling me! I always wondered what would happen if you trade then cancel the order so I always just paid the little amount. I don't think we will get in trouble for that right?
gl_closet
@princesslyc no problem girl! @posher_21 that's good, they won't charge you if you pay the $7.99!
posher_21
Okay good 😊 thanks again.
rachelathomson
Canceling the order is mail fraud and a federal offense. Both posh and the usps can sue you for thousands of dollars and send you to jail lol. It's a SERIOUS offense. You can trade but stealing a label, no.
gl_closet
@rachelathomson thank you for your input.
rachelathomson
I wasn't trying to be rude I was just trying to warn you because they're actually in the process of charging people who've done that on here
gl_closet
@rachelathomson Oh, I know! Lol. I got fined already, this is serious and I knew you were being firm with your warning. Thank you!
rachelathomson
Yeah people are getting sued over 100k, I try and warn anyone I see doing it bc it would suck
gl_closet
@rachelathomson oh my gosh! That's outrageous! Who got fined?
rachelathomson
People get fined for that everyday in America. Mail fraud is a huge thing.

Oh my gosh that just got me really scared!! I've been trading using the buying and cancel way and I've done it more than 6 times!! 😱😱
chelsssanne
Oh my gosh, somewhat taught me this way a while ago and ive been doing this ever since...i have done it soooo many times😳😳 i wonder how long it would take for them to get to me or if they are still going to forsure fine me...like i have done it 10+ times and never knew it was this serious
kenzieleighcx
I have a question & I hope you can answer it for me. The $7.99 way don't you both pay each other the $8 so don't you get your money back anyways?
gl_closet
@kenzieleighcx well, the $7.99 way is basically you paying for shipping. Since Poshmark takes 20% of your earnings, you make $0.05 cents back from the $8 you spent to trade. Hoped that helped! 😊
kenzieleighcx
Oh I get it now, thank you.
