Why would a buyer send too much money?

Listings, order messages, and delivery notices can look routine while steering you toward an unsafe payment or link.

What to do

• Check the order or listing inside the official platform instead of using the message link.
• Keep communication and payment inside established marketplace protections when possible.
• Avoid overpayment arrangements, surprise fees, gift cards, cryptocurrency, or requests to move off-platform.

Keep the decision in your control

You do not need to decide immediately whether a contact is genuine. End the unexpected conversation, find a trusted contact route independently, and ask for help before sending money or information.
