We have been made aware of attempted fraud where Tiptapp's brand is being misused to scam sellers on platforms such as Blocket, Facebook Marketplace, and similar websites and apps. While this behavior is beyond our control, we are actively working to inform and prevent such incidents as much as possible.
We want to clarify that as a seller on platforms like Blocket or Facebook Marketplace, you will never need to verify your identity with BankID or provide credit card details for a buyer to use Tiptapp to arrange the collection of an item you are selling.
We have a collaboration with Blocket where a buyer may need certain information from the seller to use Tiptapp for item collection. In these cases, only the address where the item is to be picked up (and a phone number if the seller wishes to track the transport via a link sent by SMS) is required. As a seller, you will never need to fill out any forms or verify your identity in any other way.
We encourage everyone to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity directly to us and to the platform or company whose product or service was used in the attempted fraud.
Tiptapp prioritizes the safety of our users and the public and takes these incidents very seriously.
