General Safety Advice
Keep things local
Make sure you meet up with the seller in person to check out the property before you pay any money. Keep it local, so you can see what you’re getting.
Use common sense
Use your common sense. If something sounds too good to be true, like really low prices or promises of quick cash, it probably is.
Never give out financial information
Don’t give out your financial info, like bank account numbers or PayPal details. Keep that stuff private to avoid any problems.
