Scam warnings

• Avoid buyers who 'overpay and ask for a refund' — that's a fake-check scam.
• Never share your bank account number, full SSN or driver's license to complete a sale.
• Do not sell recalled, counterfeit, expired, opened cosmetic or unsafe items.
• Use the platform's messaging and payment system — not random Cash App or wire requests.

Safety meeting checklist

Meet in a well-lit public place (police station lobby, busy coffee shop, mall parking lot during day).
Bring a friend or tell someone where you're going and when to expect you back.
Do not invite buyers into your home for small items.
Accept cash or instant pay only — no cashier's checks, no money orders, no overpayment + refund schemes.
Keep the item in your possession until payment is fully received.
Leave the meetup if anything feels off.
