I'm sure most scamming is done to buyers; does anyone have experience of it happening to sellers?
But proof of having money is not proof that it will be paid over. The risk is merely transferred to seller.
Would you sell my AV below a code for $100k? She does not have indicated $125k: I pasted that from another Av.
I would not transfer code on basis of screen shot because I don't think mnf would help an unapproved seller.
I have to agree to disagree on that statement, we don’t actually know whether that’s true or not as most of these reports are sent to support so we don’t see all of them, but even so, most of the complaints on the forum have been about getting scammed by sellers.
Nonetheless, I would either ask a mod to facilitate our exchange and/or gave you money to buy a new outfit or hair to one of my choosing ($100 skirt or hair color) and send me a new screenshot with the new said changes within a couple minutes. You think you can photoshop that quickly? I’m sure mods will help facilitate any exchange, and there is no way to scam around that as a seller will have to show the mod the code first before the mod can give the ok on the money transfer.
Anyways, the point was to encourage every seller to be an approved seller, and that if they choose not to be, so be it, but hopefully they can take the pressure of having to go through unnecessary hoops that I had to do as a sporadic unapproved seller just to make a quick buck.
If everyone follows the tips above, there should be no way anyone gets scammed anymore. Just gotta use the resources available and your mind!
