[comment u/SnooMacarons4225] Placed this order on WhatsApp? 😂 you was always scammed there, who sells stuff via WhatsApp? Red flags all over it, thought you was a sucker they’d try and rinse you for a little bit extra.
[comment u/Free-Psychology-1446] The scam is already done, when you paid for a WhatsApp order. :D
