This is week 3 on a few data centers of a certain scam group advertising their "house buying and selling" website. Multiple people have launched complaints and we only get the standard "we looking into it".
Probably a clear indicator it being week 3 they don't really care. So hey anyone on the forums selling houses. Start advertising. They don't seem to care anyways.
Well I think it's official

Are they selling for gil or real money. Selling houses for gil isn't against TOS last I checked unless you're buying the house specifically to flip it. Not a good practice, but nothing you're going to get SE to stop.

It's been 3 weeks. It took a couple months before SE removed the other (same) scammer last year. Keep reporting. If anyone has been scammed, make sure to document everything, and report it to SE. Also, none of the website pictures match the corresponding plots on the world that are supposedly selling. If you were to ask the scammer, they'll say it's for, "security purposes." It's all bs, and don't fall for it. Stay safe out there!

I doubt such scam advertisements exist. This is nothing but slander meant to harm Square Enix's reputation. I opened the party finder last night and saw no scams at all. Please stop trying to find new non-existent issues to complain about. We know you hate the game but no one is forcing you to play it. Move on instead of making up nonsense.
