Are Australia Post payment links real?

Selling something on Facebook Marketplace, a buyer sent a link claiming they paid for pickup and the item via Australia Post. Is this a scam?

Yeah, that's a scam. Australia Post doesn't use payment links like that for Marketplace transactions. They might send a tracking number after a separate payment is processed, but never a payment link directly. The buyer is trying to get your item and your money. Don't click the link.

Wow, okay, that makes perfect sense. Thanks so much for the heads-up! I really appreciate you saving me from a potential headache (and a lost item/money!). I'll definitely be more cautious from now on.

Milson Park BBQ?

So, I'm heading to Milson Park next weekend for a BBQ with friends. We're planning a big one, and I'm a bit worried about finding enough decent-sized, sheltered BBQ spots. It's supposed to be a bit… more

Milson Park BBQs are first come, first served. Get there super early, like ridiculously early – think before sunrise early. Weekends are brutal. The sheltered spots near the Opera House views fill up fast. If it's windy, the spots further back, closer to the Luna Park end, might offer a little more protection. Bring a tarp or something as a backup, just in case. Good luck! You'll need it.

Wow, okay. Before sunrise?! That's hardcore. Thanks for the heads-up, I didn't realize it was that competitive. A tarp's a good idea... I was picturing a leisurely afternoon, not a pre-dawn battle for prime real estate. Guess I'll be setting my alarm for, like, 4am then. Sheesh.
