MODS: Security Level of Classifieds
Mods,
I strongly suggest that in every ads of user to post there will be a security code to be send to users mobile number to ensure the integrity of its ads in your website.
with these level of security no one can post an ads without residing the country.
Surely we can avoid fraud/scums in your helpful website.
Regards to your team,
I totally Agreed.
I don't understand why people here try to hijack the thread, almost same topic was running , now it has been hijacked . Is there some benefits in doing so ?
addition to you suggestion i would like to say, as MOD is so concerened about double posting of the same thread and topic repetition, thy should also see same advertisment million times on the same page and take action , as it is irrtatating to see "dRy and dRamagedAC" all the way on the page .
i agree with u j1s but this is not MODs job, this require admin interfering.
on the other hand, if u think in a commercial thinking letting such cheaters to exist in this site increases the number of visitors which means more profit out of the commercial ads (which is the main income for the site owners).
in other words "the site owners don't care as long as there are huge number of visitors for their website"
I think users without certain number of points should not be giving access to the classified section.
All the attempts at a scam are so glaringly obvious here. Amazing how some people still fall for them
Good day, smookey ... you have a good point.
and one thing, Not all users here is as smart like we do or like us, this is for the their benefit. .. :)
we dont need to deal with them coz they are not allowed in QL, they are automatically blocked here .. lol ...
The best is to ignore the ads. Then nobody can fool you.
DEAL LOCALLY WITH PEOPLE YOU CAN MEET IN PERSON - follow this one simple rule and you will avoid 99% of the scam attempts.
NEVER DEAL WITH ANYONE OFFERRING SOMETHING FOR SALE IN US DOLLARS ($) OR OTHER FOREIGN CURRENCIES - anyone who asks you to do so is a scammer.
NEVER WIRE FUNDS VIA WESTERN UNION, MONEYGRAM or any other wire service - anyone who asks you to do so is a scammer.
FAKE CASHIER CHECKS & MONEY ORDERS ARE COMMON, and BANKS WILL CASH THEM AND THEN HOLD YOU RESPONSIBLE when the fake is discovered weeks later.
QATAR LIVING IS NOT INVOLVED IN ANY TRANSACTION, and does not handle payments, guarantee transactions, provide escrow services, or offer "buyer protection" or "seller certification"
NEVER GIVE OUT FINANCIAL INFORMATION (bank account number, social security number, eBay/PayPal info, etc.)
AVOID DEALS INVOLVING SHIPPING OR ESCROW SERVICES and know that ONLY A SCAMMER WILL "GUARANTEE" YOUR TRANSACTION.
IF SOMETHING SEEMS TO BE TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE, IT USUALLY IS
