DYSON SCAMMERS!! CAREFUL OF FAKE DYSON HAIR TOOLS!!
Recently lots of fake accounts selling Dyson hair tools 1/2 off. Don’t fall for!! Report their accounts & these replica products!!
These are mostly fakes!! Replicas!! Scammers are buying fakes ones off of websites like Temu for around $20-35 & reselling them for just below the price of the real ones! Also look at the sellers! Do a reverse image search of the sellers pics. Sometimes they’re using photos from popular influencers or stealing pictures but changing the names or using girls pics with boy’s names! Also notice how some are not showing pics of the actual product outside of the box or a quick blurry photo of product still inside box, so you can’t spot the difference between real vs fake. Save your $$ either get the real deal or get same crap for cheaper from Temu! Here’s pics of how to spot fakes vs real from Reddit.
Look at their reviews. Are they new accounts/sellers. Does their name not match profile? Are they only selling one item or now kids stuff? Are the pictures generics? Are they showing details of the actual item or just outside box pictures? Are they answering questions or proving authenticity?
Also serial # isn’t proof of authenticity. You can register a real serial # on Dyson website multiple times. Can Ask for serial# in advance &
call Dyson to ask how many times that # has been registered. If more than once, or already registered on a supposedly new device, it’s a scam!

@struggling_2010 Thanks so much for the info!

@wendalb no problem! I’m pretty mad about this. My friend stupidly bought one of these fake ones that literally almost caught on fire and burned a section of her hair off and she had to cut her long hair into a bob to make it even. So that’s why I’m posting warnings!! Easy way to tell is look at the ventilation holes. Fakes are perfectly round & close together vs. the spread out almost honeycomb like shape.
mbt_2022
@dalemacaz saw you asked someone about their Dyson styler a few days if they got 4 as a gift. I tried to respond but they blocked me as same person is creating multiple fake accounts I call them out on. Just wanted to warn you that person is a scammer selling fakes! Read the details on this post. All the best!! 🥰
dalemacaz
@struggling_2010 yes, I knew she was a fake. When I asked about the 4 she had listed, she deleted 2 of them. No one is going to sell something expensive for so cheap! I bought a knockoff Dyson hairdryer on Temu… it was so cheap! Like a toy almost lol. I sent it back. There are so many scammers on posh 🫤. Thanks for the info!!
mbt_2022
@dalemacaz oh that’s a relief! A lot people are buying them and wasting their $$ so trying to lookout for others. My friend bought a fake one that burned her off. These fakes can even cause a fire. Most of these scammer accounts have now blocked me from commenting. So now I’m messaging interested people to warn them. Glad you know it’s a scam too!🤗
pinktenaj
I see these all the time and report over and over but they’re still up😡. Girls pics and boys names is a dead giveaway and no reviews. I try to warn people on their page because I’ve commented under these and had my closet hacked, comments under my listings saying they were fake, I don’t even have any high end items in my closet that could be fakes😳. It’s too bad that they don’t take these scams down! Thanks for all you do to keep other poshers from falling for this scam!
mbt_2022
@pinktenaj yeah I always comment that these are fake on the listings too. I worry about retaliation but so far only been blocked. That’s crazy that you were hacked!! So sad. I always see tons of likes on items that are scams, like can’t people tell?? That’s why I created this post so people don’t fall victim. But sad that they’re allowed to stay up 😡😡😡
mbt_2022
@juliapoppenberg I saw you liked a Dyson listing a few days ago. That user blocked me for calling out their fake Dyson. Don’t buy it. It’s a fake. If you want the fake just get the dupe for cheap online & save your $$ from these scammers. 🥰
mbt_2022
@amberparker1979 just fyi that listing you commented for that Dyson today is a scam. I tried to reply on listing but most of these scammers have blocked me for calling them out Look at the fake vs real pics before spending hundreds of dollars on a fake 🥰🥰
mbt_2022
@pinktenaj @ampink25 here’s my post. Please especially read how fakes can still be registered under real serial numbers multiple times!!! 🤯🤯🤯😡😡
mbt_2022
@rondabishop here’s my post that will help you. Also if you ever need help identifying a real seller and real product, can always message me which closet and I’ll let you know. Just looking out for my fellow ladies. My friend burned her off on of these fake dysons and I don’t want same to happen to anyone else. 😿😿
pinktenaj
@struggling_2010 Thank you so much for doing this! I’ve come across several buyers who are asking questions under these fakes. I always reach out to them with a warning but often they want more info than I have. You know so much about the subject that I’m referring them to your post here. I know our goal is helping each other🥰
mbt_2022
@pinktenaj thank you. That’s why I created this listing to help others save their money & hopefully their hair. I suspect it’s only 1 or 2 persons with dozens of accounts because they’ve all blocked me somehow even before I posted a warning on their page ?? How would they even now to block me in advance if not the same people ?? Sooo SHADY!!
mbt_2022
@alliekenney88 fyi -please read this listing details. Please don’t get scammed. 🥰
mbt_2022
@bethlisau I tried to respond on that listing but could’nt as all of them have blocked me from their listings which now makes me think it’s really only one or two real persons impersonating several different people otherwise how can so many know to block me if I haven’t even posted yet on their listing?? 🤔
bethlisau
@struggling_2010 thank you so much for the info. I reported to customer service about the inundation of scams. They rely on people to report each one…. 😅🤷🏼♀️
mbt_2022
@bethlisau thank you for looking out for the community ❤️❤️
watchgirl1
Ty so much for posting this I’m interested in the dyson cordless flat iron and been wondering why I’m seeing so many of these lately unbelievable amount of scams these days
mbt_2022
@watchgirl1 yeah I had to post because somehow every single one of the scam accounts have blocked me which is super suspicious. I’m thinking it’s really only 1 or 2 persons with multiple fake accounts. Sad.
watchgirl1
@struggling_2010 that’s awful
pinktenaj
@struggling_2010 I’m tagging you in warnings to people interested in these Dysons. I think it’s very helpful to them. I’m sure you wouldn’t mind🙂
mbt_2022
@pinktenaj absolutely not! That’s why I made this post. I can’t comment on not one as they have ALL blocked me! That’s crazy suspicious!!
pinktenaj
@struggling_2010 Absolutely! I warn them in their personal closets as like I said I’ve had mine hacked by these scammers. I think a couple may have gotten irritated at me for reaching out and warning them😳. I like you are just trying to help but it’s up to them if they need our warnings, all we can do is try and I report them every day I see some have been removed so I guess that’s progress!
mbt_2022
@pinktenaj That’s reassuring. I haven’t noticed anyone removed yet, but new accounts are popping up left and right and they’ve wised up and a few have other things for sale in their closet to distract from the Dyson scam. They’ve wised up not have the Dyson as the only thing listed.
pinktenaj
@struggling_2010 I noticed that too, they’re burying these in the bottom of their closets😡. Selling kid’s clothes and looking so wholesome to buyers😳. I shared one of their listings before I saw that now I always scan down before I follow and share. I’m sure there are new ones popping up, these scammers are relentless!
mbt_2022
@pinktenaj exactly! I’m seeing them sell toys too! Zero Shame. They used to use pictures of famous influencers, but after this post about only having one item in closet and telling people about how they’re using influencers pics & not real people. Now they’re using more family friend photos of moms or older women. But if you reverse image the pictures, many of the images are random social media photos that don’t have same name as person listed on account😡😡
mbt_2022
@boobx101 here’s the Reddit pics to reference
pinktenaj
@struggling_2010 Thanks so much for helping this posher out, you’re an Angel😇. You’re advice is invaluable and will help her from getting ripped off. The closet looks very suspicious to me.
boobx101
Bought one too!!!! Just buy from Dyson it’s not worth it
mbt_2022
@boobx101 how did you know it was a fake? From the vent holes or checking the serial number for multiple registrations?
mbt_2022
@boobx101 I’m soo sorry you got scammed. Hopefully Poshmark will do right by you. Just in case they don’t you can also open a case with the better business bureau as well to help you resolve. I’ve reported a lot of these fakes and it’s up to posh to ensure your protection.
boobx101
@struggling_2010 girl the vent holes and QR CODE did not scan and the square on the blower strap was smaller
mbt_2022
@boobx101 ohh I forgot about the QR code. I did read about that too on another Reddit post. All those documents in the fakes kits won’t scan or link.
mbt_2022
@grananx7 just FYI- I saw you commented on a Dyson listing and fortunately passed, but wanted to share my post to help you identify scammers fakes vs real Dysons. Please read comments too. People are getting scammed a lot on these 😩😭
mbt_2022
@sandradiephouse just FYI- I saw you commented on a Dyson listing and fortunately passed, but wanted to share my post to help you identify scammers fakes vs real Dysons. Please read comments too. People are getting scammed a lot on these 😩😭

@kaylapincus oops here’s the listing

sandradiephouse
@struggling_2010 thank you for the information. I am always suspicious of Sellers who do not answer questions. My Grandma said if it is to good to be true....it's not. Your post will help many. I am disappointed that Poshmark doesn't bring the hammer down of these people.
mbt_2022
@sandradiephouse sadly it generates sales 😿 I just feel bad for those scammed paying a few hundred dollars for items that are actually less than $50 on sites like Temu 😿😿
mbt_2022
@melanne8 here’s some pictures
mbt_2022
@annakozak628 here’s some pics and details about spotting the fake dysons. All of the fakes QR codes aren’t scanning either. If you need me to look at any you might be interested in, let me know and I’ll take a look. Most of these scammers have blocked me already.
mbt_2022
@jus_roaminn here’s pics and explanations of how to tell the Dyson scammers and replicas/fakes. Most of these scammers have blocked me for alerting potential buyers, but the ones that have bought are all fakes as they can’t even scan the QR codes! The vent holes are the easiest way to tell between real vs fake. Most of the fake ones hide them under tissue paper so can’t see it.😿
mbt_2022
@nscudieri I saw you offered on a Dyson air wrap but seller declined offer 2 days ago. They blocked me on their listing but wanted you to know that Dyson was a fake anyway!! 99% of the new Dyson for sale on here are fakes. Those that are buying them are getting scammed. If you bought one already see if the QR code scans. If it doesn’t it’s. 100% fake & get your $$ back !!
mbt_2022
@loriesw65 I saw you just purchased a Dyson styler. It’s likely a fake! If it ever arrives don’t accept immediately on Poshmark app. please scan the QR code immediately. If it doesn’t scan or bring you immediately to the Dyson website, it’s 100% a fake and you can get your money back from Poshmark just based on that! These fakes are only selling for less than $50 on sites like Temu.
mbt_2022
@loriesw65 So save your $$ and either buy a fake from there or save & get real deal from Dyson. They had them on sale for Black Friday for $400 so just keep checking Dyson website during holiday sales.
loriesw65
Oh no, thank you for letting me know! I had no clue. The seller will not answer me when I ask when they are shipping out my item. I have a feeling it’s not real now that you have told me this info. Can I cancel my transaction? If so do you know how?
mbt_2022
@loriesw65 you can cancel but there’s a waiting period before not shipping. Let me look up how long
mbt_2022
@loriesw65 so sadly I think Poshmark makes you wait 7 days without it being shipped before you can cancel. But you could possibly ask about sooner since it’s likely a fake.
mbt_2022
@loriesw65 here’s the steps In the app, select the Account Tab (@username), or on the web, select your profile picture at the top-right of the page.
Select My Purchases.
Select the order.
Select Problems/Order Inquiry.
See if you can cancel for replica ??
loriesw65
@struggling_2010 I just checked my acct the payment has posted. I am going emoting of town Thursday and won’t be back home until the 23rd. Do you know how long I have to return it?
mbt_2022
@loriesw65 look through my pictures and read the notes when you’re ready to make your case to poshmark
mbt_2022
@loriesw65 you have 3 days from the date it’s received (delivered) to you.
mbt_2022
@loriesw65 3 days from delivery to request refund. My friend bought one of these fakes and it burned her hair off !! So be careful!!
loriesw65
@struggling_2010 did your friend get a refund? I really hope it’s not a fake but I bet anything it is fake. That’s my luck. I wish I had of known about this it would save a lot of aggravation. I don’t understand why poshmark don’t make them prove they are real before they can list them.
mbt_2022
@loriesw65 yeah, eventually she did but it was a headache. Poshmark is very aware of these fakes. I report them constantly but I get blocked by them & new fake accounts pop up constantly/daily.
mbt_2022
@litha1120 hi, I saw on a listing you sent an offer on a Dyson air wrap. That Dyson is a fake. Just wanted you aware. If you already purchased and too late to cancel. Make sure you don’t accept the order when it gets delivered but scan the QR code. If it doesn’t scan or automatically bring you to Dyson website then it’s 100% a fake, so you can open a return case with Poshmark. All the best ❤️
jenre304
Thank you for this !!
mbt_2022
@jenre304 no problem. Majority of these scammers have now blocked me from posting on their fake listings. I don’t want anyone else losing their hard earned $$ on fake junk or worse burning up their hair or potentially causing a fire!
jenre304
@struggling_2010 wow
mbt_2022
@katierichard129 Hi there. Sorry to bother you. I saw you made an offer on a Dyson air wrap from seller Reedv266. Not sure if you bought it or not. But that’s a fake Dyson. Wanted you to know. If you did. Please as soon as you get, don’t accept the order but first Scan the QR code immediately. If it doesn’t scan or bring you to Dyson website immediately then it’s a 100% a fake that probably only cost $35-50. You can request your $ back from posh if it is. Just looking out for buyers.
laurcozoe60
thanks for the information 😊💯
mbt_2022
@crodeo2004 I think you may have purchased a Dyson from a scam account of a fake Dyson. If you did, please scan the QR code as soon as you get it. If it doesn’t scan you bought a fake $50 Replica. Just as an FYI. 😿
