Do not make an advance payment for goods shipped if you do not know the seller or if the seller has bad reviews! If in doubt, pick it up and pay in person.
No respectable pleb will ask you for a deposit before you meet.
Don't be fooled by scanned documents such as an ID card.
Check all the details in person and listen to your gut feeling. If an offer is too good to be true, something is usually fishy!
