    I live in LA and have started using Offerup to sell a few items I need to get rid of, and also to look for deals since I feel like it's normally better than Craigslist, except for the spam. I am actually kind of astonished at the amount of trash posted on Offerup, and the complete inability to block any of it. How does a classified site not offer the option to block certain ads?

    Anyway....I have been looking to pick up a used set of wheels for the Tacoma and search Offerup for them, but this one absolute fucking shitbag wheel warehouse has completely killed off any attempt at finding a set. It's honestly disgusting how much this piece of shit spams his ads. He has about 10 accounts and posts about 10-20 ads every single day, sometimes every few hours. I have reported his accounts probably 200 times yet absolutely nothing happens. He posts fake prices on every single ad, and posts different prices so that we can't filter by price. I can't find a business name to leave a few negative Yelp reviews either.

    You guys have a good way of dealing with assholes like this? I believe the next step is simply to stop using Offerup since they allow this shit, but maybe there's a better way?


    On a side note, is there somewhere I can enter this shitbag's multiple phone numbers to get him spammed at least a bit like he does to the buyers on Offerup?
