    Default Kijiji ad keeps changing?!

    I posted my car up yesterday and this morning I get about 10 replies in my email. I read all of them and they all seem to kind of like scammers to me, broken english, suspect names so I ignore all of them. Then I click on my ad and it says $5000 instead of the 15,500 I had posted. I change it back and just now got a reply and went back in and it's changed to $5,000 again....am I being hacked and/or what is the point? Just to prank someone?

    Must have had an editable link. Your link is broken on your for sale ad in the marketplace. Just make a new ad and post up the new link, just not the editable version lol

    Nope, I made sure to post a link that's not editable...I deleted the link in the beyond thread...guess I'll try again later, just wanted to make sure this isn't some new scam.

    I'm pretty sure I've seen you post the editable link to one of the cars for sale before.

    ^Ya I remember you had posted in my ad to remind me of that and I changed the link so there's no way that's possible, anyways, to fellow beyonders, makes sure to check your ads once in a while to see if they've been messed around with.....

    Mine was changed from 15,500 to 5,000 and guess what, someone actually emailed me and said "$3,000?"

    You didn't change your edit settings. I've had this happen a few times when I used different computers. If you forget you leave it open to anyone.

    That's Kijiji. I'm willing to guess those offering half the price aren't even serious at that price point.

    Ohhhhhhh yeah I'll take 50% off asking without you seeing the car or talking to me just because it is Borden's.
