Stay Safe on V2Soko
Your safety is our top priority. Follow these essential tips to avoid scams and enjoy a secure buying experience.
Verify the Seller Before Any Deal
Check seller activity, listing history, reviews, and ask relevant questions. A legitimate seller is always open to verification.
Communicate Through Official Channels
Avoid shifting to unknown WhatsApp numbers, Telegram, or private calls too quickly. Use V2Soko chat for initial communication.
Avoid Too-Good-To-Be-True Deals
Extremely low prices or unbelievable discounts are common red flags for scammers.
Meet in Safe & Public Locations
Always choose well-lit, busy public areas or verified pick-up points. Never meet in isolated places.
Do Not Pay Before Receiving Items
Avoid paying deposits or full amounts before you have verified and received the product.
Double-Check Seller’s Location
Cross-verify the seller’s claimed location with the pickup point, and be cautious if the seller keeps changing locations.
Protect Your Personal Information
Don’t share ID numbers, bank info, personal documents, or private data with strangers.
Keep All Communication Saved
Screenshots, chat logs, and receipts help resolve disputes quickly and protect you if issues arise.
Report Suspicious Behaviour
If a seller acts shady, send fake tracking IDs, or pressures you to pay fast — report immediately.
