Important Fraud Prevention Tips

  • Please note, TraderOnline.com and Trader Publishing Company do not offer "Payment Protection" services or "Verified Seller" services of any type.
  • Never accept a cashier’s check that is over the price of the item on sale. 
  • Do not assume that because the bank has cashed the check for you, it is a legitimate check.  Cashier checks take 30 days to determine if they are legitimate.
  • Be more suspicious if you are requested to handle a transaction through a wire transfer.
  • Be aware of individuals posing as a representative of a client.
  • Call the seller to see if the number is correct and working. 
  • Reconsider doing business with individuals who are reluctant to answer your questions.
  • Take precautions when dealing with individuals/companies from outside your own country.
