How do I evade scammers on this space?

[Tgibby]

I joined this platform recently and I put up what I need but 90% of the people who contacted me are just rippers. Is there a verified list of vendors that I can deal with Admin?

You have to do your own research for each and everyone you are dealing with.

Here is something that might help you

I think you can report the vendor who is scamming you (ofcourse if you have relevant proof)

depend on what you are buying

You can buy from BHW marketplace

When it comes to DMs, be aware of anyone trying to sell you anything, no matter what they claim.

A good way not to get scammed:

1. Don't buy from anyone who doesn't have a verified sales thread here.
2. Never pay with Crypto, Wire, or Friends & Family (Use regular Paypal protected payment options)
3. Read 1. again - Don't get fooled by accounts that are years old as such accounts can be bought and sold and offer no protection. If a seller doesn't have a verified sales thread here, they have no business offering whatever they try to sell.

I hope that helps. Cheers.

1. Don't buy from people other than Jr. VIP or marketplace sellers.
2. Make Sure you know that Conversation starts in BHW and stays here if possible.
3. Ask For samples to understand what seller is offering.

Turn off your internet and you'll be safe

They need to have an approved sales thread.

Anything under the marketplace section has been verified by a moderator so their products are tested. That won't give you a lasting guarantee but this is how it works.

Honestly it's much easier to avoid scams on here than it is to avoid scams on X or Facebook

Do business only with VIP members

Scams happen everywhere. Usually pretty obvious though. Like if someone insists to take the conversation off this website it’s usually a scam. I had one guy a couple days ago want to DM and then immediately wanted to go to Telegram. Yeahhhhhh nope. That got him added to the ignore list super quick.

New accounts, people who always mention the same sites, people insisting on crypto payments, people who seem desperate for the sale, etc. avoid all that and you’ll probably be fine.

Do your due diligence. To be honest, I wouldn't purchase ofr any user that isn't upgraded, and even upgraded members you should check their history. There are some stand up individuals on here as sellers, and then there are the ppl that are trying to make a buck by any means, even if it means scamming you. Good luck.
