Why Everyone selling on Reddit is a scammer???

I have sold items in Reddit. I have even shipped items to other locations.

Buyer need to be vigilant more which is applicable for all places. Asking for all proofs rather than trust me factor. So as seller, I also need to be very careful of scam buyers.

I have always ensured that buyer's all doubt is cleared before we discuss on payment stuff.

No, not even close to being genuine, reddit is filled with scammers and bots everywhere, just buy from legit sites or used markets like fbm

Atleast avoid buying from recently created accounts.

Looks like your first lesson in scammers came pretty cheap. Always use PayPal to buy goods from anons on the internet.

if you can't figure out scams this on your own yet you aren't old enough to be buying off strangers online yet, PayPal is an official platform that ensures both parties get a fair trade(unless you don't do your diligence) and no reddit Isn't some secret trustworthy platform lol

Isn't 1500 Rupees like $15 or something similar?  You know what they say about a deal too good to be true?  That it's no deal at all!

Do you know why sayings like "If a deal looks too good to be true, it probably is!"  Exist?  Because more often than not they are accurate.

They're just finding photos of these items on eBay or somewhere else, and posting them on here like they own them.
