Had a message about a particular camera body I sell.
I'm a top influencer in the Liverpool area with over 6k followers, and this camera would work really well for my photography coarse.
As a favour to you i'm giving you the chance to send me one of these for free and throw in one of the lenses you sell. I will then show the camera on my social media and mention your eBay shop as a good supplier.
You should get 20 extra sales so the cost of the camera and lens is less than 10% of what you will make in extra profit.
This is a great investment please send Camera and Lens today
lets see shall we
I sell these at £15 ( with free P&P ) and the lenses at £30 plus so i'm down £45
20 Sales is £300 ( £45 is already 15% )
20 Postages £84
20 Ebay Fees £30
I receive £186
£45 is approximately 25% of what I receive let alone the profit
Why do these entitled idiots think we should give then stuff for free.
why does he think 6000 followers makes him a "top influencer"

It doesn't! And with an attitude like that, he'll never make it. No charm at all which is essential in that game.
I'd tell him to run along now!

6000 and can't spell.
walk away
My wife got an email yesterday, she is a designer, an American likes the sort of work she does and offered her the chance to "work for me" and he will pay minimum wage (US dollar), own the design rights produced to his specification and be sacked when he wants to. Laugh....

With the greatest respect, discussing such utter tripe really is plumbing the depths for this forum. I actually find it quite upsetting. I know I don't have to read it, but please don't give these disgusting morons any oxygen.

"photography coarse" ?!
You won't be surprised that I barely know what an influencer is but I think I used to know them as double glazing salesmen.
Watch or rewatch Black Mirror s01e02 if you want to know where all this social media and artificial reality  that has hijacked the internet is going.
Scam influencers rather then pointless or shark influencers at least need to be able to spell and use punctuation or does not that matter in a future where no one else can either.

My granddaughter is 12, she's been told in school that spelling and punctuation don't matter as long as they can workout what you are saying. In some subjects I'd tend to agree but in English no, spelling and punctuation vital. and in other subjects the spelling is vital spelling chemical names wrong could be a disaster ditto in a pharmacy there are drugs with completely different actions that are spelt very similarly

When I was at school many years ago my English teacher gave a simple example.
Charles the First walked and talked half an hour after his head was cut off.

It looks like you have a chancer, but don't doubt them all and the ability they have to bring in business for you.
I sold a bespoke piece to someone around 3 years ago, quite a few followers on Instagram (which was true when we checked her out), she made us aware of this when making the initial enquiry, and promised us some good, free publicity, but didn't want any discounts, all she asked was that we could speed up the process of making it for her a little bit as she wasn't happy with the piece she had originally bought elsewhere, and had someone booked in to do the installation for her. I would imagine I have had between two and three hundred enquiries as a result of her posts, and converted pretty much every one into a sale.

Katie Price was paid by a friend to plug a financial product on her social media. Those who took her advice lost their money in a scam. Kim Khardashian took a huge sum to promote a crypto product from a firm she knew nothing about. The FCA made her remove the link in the UK. Their greed is boundless as their narcissism!
