What steps can I take to protect my personal information when selling items online?
- Interact with trusted buyers only, preferably those known through friends, family, or contacts.
- Do not share personal information, such as full legal name, address, phone number, etc.
- Use an online payment system that you are comfortable with, such as PayPal or Venmo.
- Never reply to suspicious emails or messages.
- Verify that the buyer has sufficient funds for the item before sending it out.
