How To Avoid Being Scammed On Ebay

Money : EBay

Before you search for items, work out your limit budget you prepared to spend on an item and stick to it. Never go over it.

Always check feedback of the seller, as they'll be more likely to be genuine and hopefully you wont get any problems with them. Anyone over 98% positive feedback should be good. Check the comments left on their profile as well.

Avoid auctions that have photos taken from the Internet and not by a camera, as its possible the seller doesnt actually own the item they have put up for sale, or it could be in worse condition and they are just trying to hide it.

Dont fall for anyone asking you to send a paypal request outside of Ebay. Also there may be scam messages in your junk mail email asking you to log in or saying you have a new message when you havent. Always log in by typing ebays address into the URL bar.

If you think you've been scammed, or could have been, then report it to Ebay.
