Safety Tips for Every Trade

Check the trader's T.U.G. Score before accepting a trade.

Look for the Verified badge on high-value trades.

Review trade history and ratings from past trades.

Ask for proof videos for consoles and expensive items.

Use tracking for all shipped trades.

Meet in public for local trades — police stations are ideal.

Never share passwords, account logins, or payment info.

If it feels wrong, cancel the trade and report it.
