A buyer never needs you to send money

One small thing you could do

Open your messages about anything you are selling and read each one against a single question: is this buyer asking me to send money, pay a fee, share a code, or talk somewhere other than the selling site? If one is, stop replying and block them. Then, if you are selling locally, add "pickup and cash only" to the listing.
