Watch for common scam attempts
Here are a few warning signs we see most often. A single sign doesn't always mean someone is trying to scam you, but it's a good reason to slow down and check the details.
When selling
- Verification codes. A buyer asks for a code sent to your phone, Google account, or another service. Legitimate buyers will never need a code from your phone or another account. Never share verification codes with someone who contacts you through KSL.
- Overpayment offers. A buyer offers a cashier's check or money order for more than the asking price, then asks you to send money back.
- Unfamiliar websites. A buyer asks you to use an unfamiliar vehicle-history or authentication website, often through a link they sent.
- Several warning signs at once. Be cautious when someone combines an out-of-area story, urgency, third-party pickup, unusual payment instructions, or a request to move the conversation away from KSL Messages.
When buying
- Photos that don't seem original. Listing photos appear reused, overly polished, or include details that don't fit the item or area.
- Payment before you can verify. The seller asks for money before you can see or verify the item or property.
- Unusual delivery or payment requests. The seller says a third party will deliver the item, asks you to use an unusual payment method, or wants to move the conversation away from KSL Messages.
If something feels off, trust that instinct. It's okay to walk away and verify the details before sending money or sharing information.
