Picture this: a buyer on Depop slides into your DMs with a personal phone number, urging you to move the sale off‑platform. That tactic is a classic off‑platform scam aimed at bypassing the app’s protections. Keep all negotiations inside Depop, where buyer‑seller verification and payment safeguards exist. If a seller insists on texting or emailing, politely decline and report the user to Depop’s support team. Block the number and consider adding it to your phone’s spam list. Before sharing any personal or banking details, double‑check the buyer’s profile and look for red flags like overly generous offers or rushed urgency. Staying within the app is your safest bet.
