Maxtor Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 Guide: How to Avoid a scammer and make a successfull trade 1) Check if seller is Verified Trader. Verified Trader, means that this member has a valid paypal account, and a valid payment method checked my maxcheaters. Also this status will avoid kids, non paypal users, non serious sellers to obtain this status. Warning this status is not enough to make a successfull buy/trade with the seller.2) Check Marketplace report section (under construction) In this area, all members are free to discuss, report, review, all past buy/sales by user . so you can easily track someone before trusting him. Warning this is not enough to make a successfull buy/trade with the seller.3) Avoid buying very expensive Products Avoid buying very expensive products, because you will end up scammed , if a seller has made a successfull sale for a small ammount of money, doesnt mean he wont scam at big ammounts of money.4) Avoid normal and low post members, prefer Donators/VIP Avoid making deals with low post members, normal status members, and prefer Donators and VIPs. Serious people always have a better status from normals. But be carefull, this is just a proposal.5) Dont make wire transfers , or paysafecard methods as payment If you pay with wire transfer or paysafecard, you are going to be scammed 99% . You cant refund after this.6)Buy at paypal with "goods or services" and not as "donate for family" With this way, you have a chance to request a refund, if something goes wrong. If you send as donation, you cant request a refund or claim.7)Low post members usually get scammed If you have lost post count, you have a probability to get scammed. why? simple because scammer things like that: "noone knows him, so if i scam him ,noone will notice it". Scammers usually dont scam old members , because of their reputation.8) Avoid Negative feedback members Negative feedback members are usually members who dont follow forum rules, like spamming, swearing and other. Avoid them is the best option. 3
