Safety Tips
Practical checks for safer local buying, selling and business enquiries.
Before you meet
Read the full description, compare the price with similar items, ask questions and request current photos when needed. Be cautious about rushed deals or requests to move a conversation to an unfamiliar site.
- Never share a password or one-time login code.
- Inspect the item and confirm ownership or documents where relevant.
- Arrange meetings in a public place when practical.
Payments and delivery
Agree on the condition, total price and handover method before paying. Avoid sending advance payments to an unknown person. Confirm that a payment has actually reached your account before releasing an item.
Report a concern
If a listing appears misleading or unsafe, save its URL and send it through the contact form. If you feel threatened or have been a victim of fraud, contact your local authorities or payment provider promptly.
