How to Stay Safe

1.Verify Listings.

 Before engaging in a transaction, take the time to research the seller or buyer. Check their profile, read reviews and ratings left by other users, and verify their credibility. Look for signs of legitimacy, such as a verified account badge or positive feedback from previous transactions.


  1. Beware of Phishing Attempts.

Be cautious of emails, messages, or links that appear to be from (Serendibnews) but ask for sensitive information such as passwords or payment details. (Serendibnews) will never ask for such information via email or messages. If you receive any suspicious communications, report them to our customer support team immediately.


  1. Protect Your Personal Information.

Avoid sharing unnecessary personal information with other users, especially sensitive details such as social security numbers, bank account information, or government-issued IDs. Legitimate transactions should not require this level of personal information.


  1. Use Strong Passwords.

Create strong, unique passwords for your (Serendib)account and any associated email addresses or payment accounts. Avoid using easily guessable passwords and consider using two-factor authentication for added security.


  1. Educate Yourself on Scams.

 Stay informed about common scams and fraudulent tactics used in online marketplaces. Be wary of offers that seem too good to be true, requests for upfront payments or wire transfers, and suspicious requests for personal information.


  1. Stay Vigilant Against Counterfeit Goods.

 Exercise caution when purchasing high-value items, brand-name products, or luxury goods. Verify the authenticity of the item, request proof of purchase or authenticity certificates, and be wary of significantly discounted prices that may indicate counterfeit or stolen goods.


  1. Report Suspicious Listings.

If you come across listings that appear to be fraudulent, counterfeit, or misleading, report them to our customer support team immediately. By reporting suspicious activity, you help protect yourself and other users from potential scams and risks.
