Advices
If the seller or buyer suggest that you complete the operation through a trustee ask the verification of the identity of the person with which you will have relations to complete the sale or purchase in due time. Be aware of fake internet websites and trustee contracts. Do not buy any watches through mediators who declare themselves GmtBroker agents since, at the moment, we do not offer this type of service. Do not ever send money to unknown sellers through a money transfer service. Do not ever pay a watch through Western Union or Postepay. Always verify the telephone number that the seller has given, the telephone must function, the person must answer and prove reliability. The international prefix must coincide with the country of the person with whom you are making the transaction. Is the seller available in giving you further information, photos or documents regarding the watch? Does an internet research produce negative results or forum messages related to the seller? Pay attention to sellers with free email addresses and with pseudonyms that are not in line with the name of the seller. When an offer is too good to be true, often it is a scam.
For Sellers
In the case of sales through Paypal verify that the payment has been credited in a definite manner on the bank account indicated before sending or supplying the watch. Verify that the bank trasfer is present on your online bank statement and not that you have received presumed Paypal emails. In case of advanced/bank transfer payments verify that the payment is credited in a definite manner on your bank account before sending or supplying the items. Trust only statements that come from you bank.

- Attention to buyers who come from Nigeria, mobs specialized in online scams (and not only) exist. These people often ask you to conclude transaction in cash (counterfeit money) or by bank transfers that have scaming procedures, one of the most used systems of these organizations is the use of a letter from the bank in which it is asked that you proceed in sending the items so as to then send a bank transfer in your favor.
