Factors to Consider while Advertising on Classified Sites Advertising items for sale on classified sites is a great way to spread the word to likely buyers, but there are risks you should take care of when you do. 1. Create A Safe Ad ● Look hard at any photo you post, you must not include Driving license numbers or any other photo Id. Beware of Internet payment services that you are asked to access through a link or in the body of an email. ● 2. Communicating With The Proper Channel With Buyer ● Communicate only through portal (ADSCT) message board. Don’t give the home address to strangers. Make it clear that you will only accept cash for the item. Any other form of payment is highly likely to be fraudulent. Don't disclose personal information unless you are sure about buyer's intention. ●
3. Show Transportable Items In Safe, Public Places ● Agree to meet during daylight hours in a public place and bring a friend to accompany you. Turn down any request to meet in an unfamiliar place. Don’t tell anyone you have a lot of cash at home to buy bulk products. Whether buying or selling a product online, you will most likely not know the person with whom you are transacting so meet him accordingly. ● 4. Payment ● ● Avoid sharing your credit card or bank account details. One of the most important things is to not disclose financial or personal information other than what is needed for the payment. 5. Online Buyer Beware Avoid any arrangement with a stranger that asks for payment via money order, wire transfer, international funds transfer, pre-loaded card or electronic currency. It is rare to recover money sent this way. 6. Beware Of Any Requests For Your Details Or Money Never send money or give credit card details, online account details or copies of personal documents to anyone you don’t know or trust.
