Just a warning.... I advertised an item on Le Bon Coin, and received a genuine sounding enquiry. Emails were exchanged, and the lady (???) in question said she would send cash by DHL courier, and I should then send the items on receipt. Sure enough this was immediately followed by an email ALLEGEDLY from DHL with a link to click on.
NO NO NO; It`s a scam.
Be on your guard;there are some crooks out there!

Yes it's a common scam, but people still keep falling for it so a good idea to remind people.
You should also tell Bon Coin too. If you used their contact instead of your own personal contact they will have the Email and will block it. Thy may also report it as the French are getting hot on these scams.
