Lately been seeing a lot of Scam advertisements on Fakebook. There will be an advertisement for a legitimate product that is way under valued in price.

Here is an example of one. A zero gravity chair that should sell for at least 70 to 80 dollars. This add, you can “buy” the chair for 15 dollars.

When I used to get ads on Facebook there would be ads for bicycles that sell for $1500 and up for $50

I see there is a way to check Alert and report a scam, but my question is, how do you know for certain it’s a scam. I have a phone number, email, and the name of a company. How do I verify that they are not just throwing out names of real  
Companies, but they are fraudulent themselves ?
