Pakisnap connects you with other people in your area. Most deals go smoothly, but it pays to be careful. Follow these tips to protect yourself.
Meet in public
Always meet in a busy, public place during the day. Bring a friend if you can.
Inspect before you pay
Check the item in person and make sure it matches the listing before handing over any money.
Pay on delivery
Prefer cash or payment only once you have the item. Never pay in advance to someone you haven't met.
Avoid unusual requests
Be wary of sellers who refuse to meet, ask for advance deposits, or push you to move off the platform.
Protect your details
Never share passwords, OTP codes, bank details, or card numbers with anyone.
Report suspicious ads
Use the Report button on any listing that looks fraudulent or inappropriate.
If something feels wrong, trust your instincts and walk away. Report suspicious users or listings and we'll review them.
