Important Safety Tips

Avoid fraud by meeting all sellers face-to-face to pay for items. Always meet up in a public place - coffee shop, food court, etc.

Carefully inspect all items before paying for them. One2Sell does not offer any escrow or payment services. Nor do we guarantee transactions.

Stick to Singapore-based buyers and sellers. Overseas ads carry a much higher risk of fraud.

Avoid buyers offering you a sum more than the item is worth and asking you to refund the difference to them.

Never send money via Western Union, MoneyGram or bank transfer. Anyone who asks you to do so is a scammer.

Never give financial information (bank account number, IC number, PayPal info, etc.) over the phone or by email.

Be highly suspicious of work-at-home schemes. Most of these are scams. After paying a registration fee, you will never hear from them again.

Fake cashier's checks and money orders from overseas are common. Banks cash them and then hold you responsible when the fraud is discovered often weeks or months later.

Overseas pet adoption schemes offer you a free healthy pet that the person cannot take care of. Your only obligation is to pay the cost of transporting the pet from its current location to you and/or customs fees. There is no pet. These ads are scams.

Beware of offers for consumer electronics (e.g. mobile phones) at below-market prices requiring down payments through Western Union, MoneyGram or other untraceable services. One2Sell strongly advises against purchasing any mail-order electronics from these ads.

Above all, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
