How to protect yourself
- Verify the registered company name and registration number.
- Pay to a company account and keep the contract and correspondence.

- Treat an unusually low price as a question, not an opportunity.
If you suspect fraud, preserve the evidence and report it to the platform and the relevant authorities.
