This site is offering 80% off on sets. brickhomus.top

Limit one per purchase. And ignore the countdown timer, it's fake.

So what's the likelihood they'll just take my money and run?

According to whois.com the site was registered today in Arizona.

The catch is probably they they take your money and run. I'd say 99%. But
if you don't mind the hassle of getting a new credit card you might make
big on that 1%.

"If something seems too good to be true, it usually is."

I wouldn't buy there, you'll either get fake items or more likely
never receive anything.

You have a 100% chance of getting scammed. You'll definitely never get your
items and odds-are they are stealing your CC info.

Well, the good news is; two days after reporting the ad facebook finally removed
it. Unfortunately as of last night the ad had been shared ~1000 times and had
several thousand comments as well.

Those comments are all bots, saying how great the offer is and that they got
it within 2 days of ordering, blah blah. Its all bots. I regularly see these
Amazon pallet sales on Facebook, with hundreds of comments of people posting
saying they got 3 playstations and 2 apple phones for 80 dollar. As if.
