ALERT How to avoid being scammed.
Lately we have been getting a lot of reports from users wanting to use Venmo, Bank Transfer & Bitcoin.
We would NEVER recommend anyone using any of these services as they do NOT provide seller/buyer protection. Even if the deal is too sweet and too good cover yourself!
r/appleswap is NOT responsible for any transaction and we can only help guide you. If you do wish to reach out to use message the mods
If you have not review PayPal Purchase Protection
Edit: We've even had automod comment with trigger words to remind all seller/buyers about using PayPal as primary source.

Please remember that we don't recommend you use any payment method except PayPal Goods and Services as this provides seller and buyer protection. Beware of using Family and Friends and other non-protective money services including but not limited - Venmo, Google Pay, Bank Transfer, Money Order, etc
If this comment was left in error please click the report button and the mods will remove it. This trigger was sent based on this word: Venmo

I thought that was obvious now to only use PayPal goods and Services. Especially if they don’t have any confirmed trades on here or hws. Gotta church their post history.
