Meet in Public Places
Whenever possible, arrange to meet buyers or sellers in well-lit, public locations such as coffee shops, shopping malls, or other safe environments. Avoid meeting in isolated areas or at private residences, especially for high-value transactions.
2. Verify Products
Before making any payments, carefully inspect the items to ensure they match the description in the ad. Take your time to confirm the quality, condition, and authenticity of the product.
3. Avoid Advance Payments
Do not send money before receiving the product or service. Avoid wire transfers, prepayment schemes, or any advance payment requests, especially for large amounts. Payments should be made in person at the time of the transaction.
4. Trust Your Instincts
If something feels suspicious or too good to be true, it likely is. Be cautious of deals that involve unusually low prices or pressure to act quickly. Always follow your instincts, and if you’re unsure, step back from the transaction.
5. Use Secure Communication
Keep all communication with buyers or sellers within Henronet’s messaging platform. Avoid sharing personal contact information, such as phone numbers or email addresses, until you are comfortable and confident in the transaction.
6. Report Suspicious Activity
If you encounter fraudulent behavior, suspicious ads, or any user who makes you feel unsafe, report the issue immediately by clicking the “Report” button on the ad or contacting our support team. We take reports seriously and will investigate promptly.
