I’m just on Instagram and came across yet another Temu post and on this one here is what I saw.
What’s interesting here is I NEVER OPEN ANY TEMU POSTS. So I’m thinking IA are tracking me? Anyone else noticed this?

This looks like 4 separate ads for items on 4 different platforms one of which is on folksy. Folksy said they are starting more ads in the run up to Christmas so this is good news.

Only thing is I don’t believe that Stained Glass Honey Bee is on Folksy. Search won’t find it (unusual to include the Honey) and an image search can’t find it either anywhere on the web nor can it find Batterley !
Folksy are running a tiny ad.started yesteday 8th… just two things were shown in the one i saw…not a carousel or anything. there was a print picture and some earrings. Will be interesting to see what else pops up.

With the wording …I think
Shop small, shop well, give craft this Christmas

The shop is in holiday mode so it is excluded from the search results
(You’ve mistyped the other name it has an lt not a tt in the middle)

At that explains the folksy search but not the Google reverse image search. Thank you.
I may have mistyped above but I searched with the LT. Google says so.
Where Does Balterley come into it ?
Ah I see the Bee now … in the E*** shop… odd Google didn’t find it as that shop is not on holiday 
Balterley solved. Thought it was related to the Folksy Bee… my phone screen is Very small… i see now it refers to a sink below …Silly me …Must put my laptop screen light on

I’ve seen plenty of sponsored Folksy posts on Instagram over the last day or so with carousels of lots of photos. They look really good

Ooh, Folksy ads That gives me the happy!
I guess we shouldn’t click into them or it will cost Folksy per click?

As Helen says it is extraordinarily likely that what you have seen is 4 totally separate adds which makes Temu totally innocent. I will certainly not be writing anything like that on my listings as many things Are for sale elsewhere even if only at the Xmas market i did today
I know this might be a silly question but how do you know if Folksy have done paid ads and how do we find them please ?

It will only show currently running ads so if none are running it won’t show anything.
