    A Masterton woman has been arrested for allegedly scamming people on Facebook Marketplace


    Police claim the 32 year old sold a multi-tool 47 times ... over 13 days.

    Senior Sergeant Ian Osland says they encourage reporting of any scams online, and recommend people buy from regulated sites like Trade Me.

    The woman will appear in Masterton District Court next week.
