Core safety rules
Before completing a transaction:
- do not rush, especially when the other party is creating pressure;
- verify what can be verified: photos, serial number, condition, profile, payment and tracking;
- keep a record of the conversation, preferably on the platform;
- never treat a screenshot as proof of payment;
- never share passwords, OTPs, PINs or security codes;
- be suspicious of links sent to you in order to "receive" money;
- if something does not add up, walking away is always an option.
No single check removes all risk. Safer transactions come from combining several independent checks.
