Before you buy

Research seller details, ask questions and inspect the goods where practical. Avoid advance transfers to strangers and never trust a screenshot as proof that funds have cleared.

Before you sell

Do not release goods based on an SMS or proof-of-payment image; independently confirm funds through your own bank. Meet in a safe public place where appropriate.

When hiring services

Agree on work scope, milestones, deliverables, price, timeframe and a written record before payment. For regulated trades, verify qualifications.
