"China virus should eat u alive.”

My mom posted a plant for sale on Facebook marketplace. A person messaged her to see if it was still available and if she could pay through Venmo first, then pick up the next day. My mom agreed and responded with my Venmo QR code. My mom was out of town so as soon as she sent the Venmo code, she started driving back home and couldn’t touch her phone anymore. The person didn’t wait until she responded, but instead she messaged my mom multiple times saying: “payment sent” “hello..” “if you don’t respond, I will report u” “yo u ugly Asian b*tch. I hope u rot in hell” “China virus should eat u alive.”

My mom didn’t get home until almost 2 hours later and that’s when she was able to check her messages and was shocked at what she read. The person then messaged me on Venmo requesting for a refund. I told her I don’t appreciate the words she said to my mom and would like her to apologize and I will refund her money back. She responded saying “apologize for what? She sent her Venmo right away but couldn’t send me the address right away? If she has fb and Venmo, she is tech savvy enough. Even if she was driving, there’s a thing called voice text!” I kept it professional and responded back that I shouldn’t have to explain that it’s against the law to text and drive, then refunded her money back. She then blocked me on Venmo. But I still have screenshots of proof of our conversation.
