The Three Payment Situations Compared
Real Risks of Cash Deals (and How to Cut Them)
- Fake notes โ count in daylight, check เงณ1,000 notes carefully, or pay by live mobile transfer instead
- Item swap โ keep the item in your hand from inspection to payment
- No-show buyers โ confirm by call an hour before, meet near a landmark
- Disputed condition โ inspect in good light and photograph the item at handover
- Cash safety โ for anything above เงณ50,000, prefer a live transfer over carrying cash
Rules That Keep You Safe
- Never pay before you hold the item โ no advance, no "booking money", no courier fee
- Only trust a confirmation SMS on your own phone โ screenshots are trivially faked
- Never share an OTP โ not with a courier, not with a "resale.bd agent"; we never ask
- Run a Safe Deal Check first โ Scam Shield flags impossible prices, reused photos and known scam wording
- Keep the chat on-platform โ it becomes your evidence log if anything goes wrong
