At ikman, we are 100% committed to making sure that your experience on our platform is as safe as possible.
Here's some advice on how to stay safe while trading on ikman.
Meet the seller in person and check the item before you make a payment.
Research the job and the employer before you apply. Don’t give out personal information before meeting the employer in person. Avoid going to remote locations for an interview.
Buyers: don't make any payments before receiving an item. Sellers: don't send an item before receiving payment.
Avoid anything that appears too good to be true, such as unrealistically low prices and promises of quick money.
This includes bank account details, eBay/PayPal info, and any other information that could be misused.
ikman does not offer any form of payment scheme or protection. Please report any emails claiming to offer such services. Avoid using online payment services or escrow sites unless you are 100% sure that they are genuine.
ikman never sends emails requesting your personal details. If you receive an email asking you to provide your personal details to us, do not open any links. Please report the email and delete it.
Avoid anyone that asks for extra fees to buy or sell an item or service. ikman never requests payments for its basic services, and doesn't allow items that are not located in Sri Lanka, so import and brokerage fees should never be required.

This ensures that you are protected from spam.
