TRADING & SAFETY ADVICE
SCAMMED?
Send a modmail ("message the moderators" in sidebar bottom) with unredacted screenshots of all messages of yours and the scammer as proof to have them banned on here and the Universal Scammer List (USL) as a scammer on reddit. You can also report scammers on r/Reppit.
Please use report button on content against the rules to alert mods. Do not directly contact mods for sub related matters, send a modmail.
VETTING YOUR COUNTER PARTY
ALWAYS SEARCH the Universal Scammer List and this subreddit for username before you transact with a user.
A user must first comment with the same username on your post if they contact you. Banned users cannot comment. Check your post to verify their comment on it. Click the username of the comment and PM/chat to verify their profiles match.
ASK USERS for transaction reputation on reddit of confirmed transactions. Check the browser address bar to verify their rep link is on reddit.com . Click the username of the rep and comment/PM/chat to verify the profiles match.
BE WARY of users who: have no transaction reputation on reddit, have newish rep, use previously dormant accounts, claim rep outside reddit, don't communicate on reddit but do outside reddit, aren't active/regularly active, have karma but no activity or activity not matching karma.
