Avoiding Scams on Our Platform

Key rule: Always deal locally and meet face-to-face to avoid scams.

DO NOT:

• Exchange payment before meeting in person.
• Respond to requests for wire transfers, gift cards, or cashier’s checks.
• Trust escrow services—they may be fraudulent.
• Share sensitive information like bank details, app logins, or personal IDs.

Watch out for:

• Offers involving shipping or third-party movers.
• Claims of "guaranteed" transactions or secure payment services.
• Requests for additional information via email or phone.
• Anyone asking for a "code" or "verification"—this is always a scam.

Safe interactions:

• Use in-app messaging to discuss listings.
• Arrange meetings in public, secure locations.
