• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

how come in the fs/ft rules it says make sure to get the buyers full name / address / phone number? what good does that do? i mean if you sell somebody something, and you ship first, and they dont pay, what good would there phone number do?

i know there has to be a reason but i cant think of one, sorry if this is a stupid question, but please respond
 
If a FS/T deal goes awry, it is helpful to have contact info that you have confirmed in advance. A quick phone call may cost you a few cents, but if the deal goes bad and then you try to call them and it's a wrong number, you might be screwed.

BTW, all trading here is done at your own risk. Taking precautions to protect yourself is like wearing a condom. :)
