Verify: If someone is asking for your validation code on Facebook, it's likely a scam

Bartholomy tells WCNC Charlotte this is most likely a scam, and the so-called buyer may actually be trying to take control of the seller's phone. "They can then go in and set up a Google phone, and then that generates a code, and that goes to whoever has that phone number," Bartholomy said. "So that code would come to me. I see it on my phone and say, oh, that must be about the Facebook marketplace. I would go ahead and enter that code and provides it to that other person as well, and now they have your phone." According to Bartholomy, that's when the scammer can make long-distance phone calls or even overseas calls without you even knowing. "You won't find out about it until you get your next phone bill," Bartholomy said. Under the Marketplace tab on Facebook, there are several tips and safety instructions for users. Under "Protect your privacy," Facebook states: Don't respond to messages or emails that ask you to provide verification codes or account information, such as your email or password. "Once you are not using the tools that are available on Facebook Marketplace, then this is when the scammers set in and take advantage of a bunch of folks," Bartholomy said.
