Don’t be a Victim of Online Auction Fraud

Below are a few actions that you should take to protect yourself from Internet auction fraud.

For a high cost item use an escrow service.
Avoid sellers who request payment by electronic transfer.
Never provide your Social Security Number or Drivers License Number.
Verify the delivery data and the sellers return policy.
Review the online feedback on a seller.
If the seller is a business, check with the Better Business Bureau www.bbb.org.
Prefer sellers who accept credit card payments. When you use a credit card to pay for a purchase, federal law limits your liability for an unauthorized charge to $50. You can also request your credit card issuer to make a charge-back.
Be cautious about buying from a seller in another country. If you buy from a seller in another country, understand the difference in laws governing auctions between that country and the US.
If you become a victim of Internet auction fraud, you can submit a complaint report with an online form at the IC3 Web site http://www.ic3.gov. The IC3 will review your complaint and refer it to the proper law enforcement agency.

Internet Auction fraud is a large and growing problem. Take the measures outlined above to prevent yourself from becoming a victim.
