Security

 

     Your security is important to you, your family members and us.   Initially this page will begin with links to sources of information on specific security topics related to shopping or selling online.  I hope to develop a full fledged domain on the topic of security to serve users of this site and others in the online advertising industry.

Thank you for your patience and loyalty as this web site grows and develops with the goal of stronger, healthier communities and cleaner environment.  If you have any concerns about an ad or your security as pertains to this web site and do not find an answer in the About Security page, please use the Contact tab at the top of any page.  

 We use Captcha so someone will have to type in the numbers when they want to send your item to a friend, or contact the seller.  This reduces the chances of a random computer generated email.
