SELLERS: AVOID SCAMS AND FRAUD

The Classifieds are a public site, and are viewable by anyone. Sellers: protect yourself from scams and fraud.

Be on the lookout for these “red flags” that are common characteristics of scam and fraud attempts:

• Vague inquiry, e.g. asking about “the item”
• Poor grammar/spelling and oddly phrased emails
• Unfamiliar with weaving or spinning terms
• Requesting payment by cashier check, money order, PayPal, or something other than cash
• Asking if the item can be shipped or asking to use a shipping service (and claiming they will reimburse you)
• Difficulty to pin down on terms, pickup, payment; Inability to meet face-to-face
