Avoiding Scams: What to Know Before Buying from Online Sellers

Buying products online has become easier than ever — but so has getting scammed. From fake Facebook pages to sellers who disappear after payment, many people have lost money trying to buy phones, sneakers, and other popular items from unverified sellers.


🚩 Common Signs of a Scam:

  • The seller asks for full payment upfront
  • There are no reviews or proof of previous sales
  • Fake pages with stolen photos and limited information
  • Communication stops once money is sent

These scams not only hurt your wallet but make it harder to trust real, hard-working entrepreneurs.
