Tbh with a brand new account, no picture for proof accepting using escrow is your only chance of selling anything on here. There have been so many newbie scammers on here lately its unreal.
I understand your concern with scammers. Me, being new to these forums and all, it's a bit intimidating. I work for a company, a legitimate company that sells top of the line technology, internationally. With such comes rules; my superiors do not believe that there are any escrows services that can guarantee customer information security enough for us to use their service. At this point in Bitcoin history there is a lot of uncertainty in many of the service related to the currency, all we can do is have a little faith.... and maybe wait for a reason to batter someone on serveral post before doing so ;P
Hahaha, it's easy. No escrow, no trade.
since u are new here, you should try to EARN trust, escrow would be a very good start
I've learned very quickly that escrow is a big deal on this site; I've brought it up with my superiors, but until I get an okay this is how I have to do business.
Again, yes, I am selling these items, but I'm working for a legitimate company with rules, regulations and guidelines to doing business. PayPal is another option we sometimes utilize because their service is able to reverse funds and they have a great support team dedicated to finding scammers.
Short story time: I was selling an item direct through Paypal and the customer sent faulty emails titled as Papal from a random email address confirming funds sent, obviously a phishing attempt. I reported the email addresses/alias associated with the incident. ALL of us have been in a situation where a random person on the internet has tried to get over, yet here we all are :]
I'll keep you both posted about escrow options however, I want to conduct business with as little stress on the customer and my company as possible!
