- No fake urgency. No countdowns, no "only today".
- We never promise that selling earns income.
If someone asks you to pay "Zellany"
Zellany does not message you to ask for money. If someone says you must pay Zellany a fee to release an item or a payment, it is a scam. Report it. See How to spot a scam.
