- Limit photos that expose home, workplace, or children
- Move chat off-platform carefully and slowly
- Meet in public; tell a friend
- Report and block without engaging scammers
Ledger-verified starting prices show below when captured; otherwise cards stay confirm-live or pending. Overall scores stay unpublished (N/Pub). Never invent dollar amounts.
