On Saturday afternoon, Miami police announced they are looking for a man who left a Facebook Marketplace transaction without paying. He loaded shelving and other items into his truck after the seller posted them, and failed to send the promised Zelle payment.
The seller said the buyer had agreed to pay through Zelle but never completed the transaction, prompting police to treat the case as a possible theft or fraud.
Facebook Marketplace is a common platform for local buying and selling, and law enforcement sometimes investigates alleged fraud or theft linked to the service.
