Safety tips
Most people on Loja.ng are genuine, but a few simple habits protect you completely. Follow these whether you are buying or selling.
Meet in a public place
Choose a busy, well-lit spot during the day. Bring someone with you when the item is valuable.
Inspect before you pay
Check the item properly, test it if you can, and confirm it matches the photos and description.
Never pay in advance
Do not send money, airtime or a deposit to someone you have not met and whose item you have not seen.
Check the seller
Look for the verified badge and how long they have been on Loja.ng. Ask questions before agreeing.
Be careful with deals that look too good
A price far below the market usually means something is wrong. Slow down and ask more questions.
Report anything suspicious
If a seller or buyer pressures you or asks for unusual payments, stop the deal and report the ad.
