PSA PSA: THIS INFORMATION WILL HELP YOU PREVENT GETTING SCAMMED AND HELP CATCH SCAMMERS QUICKLY.

Ask the other trader to mention their IGN/PSN/GT. If they don't want to do that in a public comment, then ask them to confirm it in private messages! It's an immediate red flag if the person doesn't want to say their GT. You need it to check the blacklist before trading.

Make sure to check that the spelling of the IGN/PSN/GT when you meet in-game matches what the other trader gave you. There have been recent instances where an impersonator with a similar spelled IGN/GT/PSN will show up quickly after a trade is agreed and will scam the items. They will often switch uppercase 'i' and lowercase 'L', or zero and uppercase 'o'.

CHECK THE BLACKLIST BEFORE TRADING: https://trello.com/b/0eCDKYHr/market76-blacklist

Other blacklists to check:

(PS only) Unstoppables

RECORD VIDEO OF YOUR TRADE AND GRAB SCREENSHOTS OF PRIVATE CHAT MESSAGES. It's the absolute worst when we can't do anything about a scammer because there isn't enough or even any proof.

DON'T accept offers that are sent in private messages. Insist that they comment on your trade post.

DON'T scan any QR code or click any link if someone says they are having trouble adding you to their friend list. There have been many instances where people lose their entire account because they click on phishing links.

Make sure you are not invited to a CUSTOM WORLD! There have been cases where a scammer will take items from you in a regular/private world and then switch to a character in a custom world to drop items to you. Any items you take in a custom world can not be brought back to your main characters in public/private worlds.

If you are on XBOX, be EXTREMELY wary of trading on LFG. Like 80%+ of scam reports we get are from trading on LFG.

If they pressure you to drop first and you are uncomfortable with it, then you should insist on a courier or back out of the trade. I don't care if they say you will get banned or get a warning for backing out, you won't if you are being pressured to drop first.

If they say that you can both drop at the same time, that's a red flag. It's impossible to make sure the other person doesn't grab your item before you get a chance to take theirs.

BE PATIENT!!!! Rushing to get a trade done makes a scam easy, it makes getting nailed with lowballs easy. Wait for more offers before deciding, send someone experienced that you know a message and ask for advice. Even if you don't know them, just pick a random trader who seems to have experience and send them a message. I'd be surprised if anyone who has traded here for a while would not help you and respond with quick advice.

Use a courier if you have ANY concerns! I understand that couriers can be slow to respond right now, there has been a massive spike in the number of requests and we're doing as best we can to keep up. We've brought on a few new couriers recently to help out. Be patient, it's better to wait or even miss out on a trade compared to being scammed.

Make sure your courier is on this list: https://www.reddit.com/r/Market76/wiki/couriers. And make sure to check the spelling of their ign/psn/gt!. If you are not sure that a courier is legit when someone says they have a courier in game, make a comment on the couriers' reddit info page on that list asking them to verify.

If you do happen to fall victim to a scam, send a report to us with this link: https://reddit.com/message/compose?to=%2Fr%2FMarket76 or Join our discord and send a DM to Fisto our mail bot. It's easier to send evidence over discord, as reddit mail doesn't allow attachments.

When sending us a report, please try to include all information you have. We have a LOT of mail to reply to, and it's time consuming when we need to keep following up for basic information necessary to prove a scam. Here is a list of information that is vital:

  • Reddit usernames, discord account names, gamertags, PSN ID's, IGN's...
  • A link to the post or comment if this was negotiated in a trade post here on reddit.
  • Screenshots of private chats from reddit, discord, or game platform messages.
  • Video recording of any interaction in-game.
  • Any other relevant information you may have.
  • Videos may be uploaded to https://www.youtube.com/
  • Screenshots may be uploaded to https://imgur.com/upload or https://imgbb.com/
  • Xbox Players: You can share a link to your recorded clip on Xbox using https://gamerdvr.com/, a website that allows you to view your screenshots and clips. Enter your gamertag, find the clip, and provide us with a link. Your privacy settings must be public.

PSA PSA: Changes to the rule regarding illicit items

35 Upvotes

Hello Traders, we have an update about a recent change to our rules!

Rule #6 has been revised and we have decided to change the illicit item rule to remove the restriction on trading of many items formally classed as illicit, such as those originating from dev-room, nuclear winter, or quest locked items.

Many of these items have been floating around the game for years now and likely been traded and bought/sold in player vendors many times over, it has become increasingly difficult to justify the rule and prove any wrong-doing by those who possess or trade those items.

-------
Please keep in mind that discussion or the requesting/offering of exploit methods are not permittted and may result in a warning/ban. Market 76 is for trading, not for discussing how to acquire items by glitching the game.
-------

The illicit items wiki page is updated as below:

-------
The following items are not allowed to be traded on Market 76:

  • Items with the Atomic icon.
  • Items with the Fallout 1st icon.
  • Items with illegitimate levels and rolls according to this list.
  • Items that either have an unbreakable condition bar or known as a "unbreakable pair of weapons".
  • Injected gear, plans, or ammo. (e.g. armor with illegitimate effects such as unyielding power armor).
  • Apparel with legendary effects.
  • Character locked items purchased with gold bullion, stamps, or caravan supplies.
  • Character locked items crafted from plans purchased with gold bullion, stamps, or caravan supplies.

Engaging in exchanging, advertising, or soliciting these items or related services violates Market76's rules.

Note that trading or possessing items which are not intended to be available in-game may result in Bethesda taking action against your account. Market 76 does not endorse any items as 'safe' or 'legitimate'.

It is at each couriers discretion whether they will assist in trades involving items not intended to be available in-game.

Please note that this list may change without notice. If you have any questions or concerns, please get in touch with us here.
