How to stay safe from scammers (monthly repost)
Howdy y’all
Gonna get active on community again soon hopefully. Been busy with school and the FD.
- ALWAYS use PayPal G&S. You can use HopUp but they don’t care about this app and would rather make money
- Ask for a picture with their name and the current date. You can ask for a shooting video too.
- Check vouchers/reviews and when they joined. If they have been here for a couple years and have over 40 vouchers I’d say they’re good. But always take precautions.
- If you’re trading, it is better to meet up than ship. If you do meet up, do it in a very public area.
- Only buy stuff with purchase protection
- Scammers tend to follow a script. If they send a bunch of text with no punctuation or are trying to confuse you. It’s a scammer.
- NEVER EVER use e checks or whatever they say. ONLY PAYPAL G&S OR HOPUP
- If they have airsoft in their name and it’s a new account it’s probably a scammer

Don’t bother trading with new accounts unless they ship first and you can test the item.
