Requests to communicate outside of Poshmark’s platform, specifically through email, often signal an attempt to circumvent the site’s established transaction protocols and security measures. For example, a buyer might propose finalizing a deal directly via email after initially showing interest in an item listed on Poshmark.
Such communications can lead to fraudulent activities. Poshmark’s buyer and seller protections are voided when transactions occur outside the platform. Historical instances show that users who engage in off-platform dealings face increased risks of scams, non-payment, or receiving misrepresented goods, with no recourse through Poshmark’s support system.
