🚫 Anti-Scam Advisory

Stay Safe. Stay Smart. Protect Yourself from Online Fraud.

Most listings are posted by genuine and trustworthy people — which means you can do great business. 
However, scammers do exist. By following a few simple rules, you can protect yourself and your money.

🔒 Our Safety Tips

1. Meet in person whenever possible — face-to-face transactions are the safest.
2. Avoid anonymous payments such as Western Union, MoneyGram, or similar services.
3. Do not send money or goods abroad — it’s almost impossible to recover losses.
4. Never accept checks — they can be forged or bounce later.
5. Verify the other party’s details (full name, address, phone number) from a reliable source.
6. Keep all records — emails, chat messages, listings, and any other correspondence.
7. Trust your instincts — if a deal sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

🚩 Common Signs of a Scam

Watch out if:

• The seller/buyer claims to be abroad or “currently traveling.”
• They refuse to meet in person.
• They insist on payment via Western Union, MoneyGram, or checks.
• Their messages are written in poor or broken language.
• Their replies look like copy-paste templates.
• The offer feels unrealistically cheap or too attractive.
