Fraud
Suggestions and ways to protect yourself from fraud and scammers.
- Behavior and common sense rules for exercising caution when making purchases.
- Whenever possible, deal locally and meet the seller face to face.
- If someone asks you to send money via Western Union - you are probably being
approached by a scammer.
- Fake documents in the form of checks, cashier checks and money orders are
common. A bank will cash them against the balance in your account and when they are found to be fake the bank recovers their loss by extracting the
money from your account.
- Exercise extreme caution with the use of escrow services. Some banks offer
valid escrow services and money transfers, but be sure to check they out fully
before using.
- Do not release any credit card or bank information unless you are dealing with a
valid company such as PayPal.
- If you cannot deal locally and meet fact to face, consider using PayPal.
-
PayPal offers several money payment systems to submit and receive payments and
transfer money between members.
- To use PayPal both the seller and buyer must have accounts.
- PayPal offers some protection to the buyer and seller, but it is not
bulletproof. See PayPal about payment methods after creating an account.
- Transactions, contacts or purchases of classified ad listings made via
classified ad website link(s) are competely removed from any accountability or
responsibility of Ezy Golf Classified. The website link included with any

issue regarding website content located at that link.
- Ezy Golf Classified is not involved in any transaction, and does not handle any
payment processing or guarantee any transctions between the buyer and seller.
