Campus Safety Tips

Stay safe while buying and selling on campus

1

Meet in Public Places

Always meet in well-lit, public areas on campus. Avoid meeting in isolated locations.

2

Bring a Friend

Consider bringing a friend when meeting for high-value transactions. There's safety in numbers.

3

Verify Before Meeting

Check the seller's verification status and reviews before arranging a meeting.

4

Inspect Items Thoroughly

Examine items carefully before completing the transaction. Test electronics if possible.

5

Use Secure Payment

Use KART's wallet system or meet in person with cash. Avoid wire transfers or gift cards.

6

Trust Your Instincts

If something feels off, trust your gut. You can always walk away from a transaction.

7

Report Suspicious Activity

Report any suspicious listings or users immediately through our reporting system.

8

Keep Records

Save messages and transaction details. This helps if you need to report an issue later.
