What are some tips you would give people on reddit in regards to staying safe from scams in the remote side hustle community?

Hey all! What are some tips we can give each other in terms of what to look out for in regards to scams within the remote side hustle community?

To start, I think one of the key rules everyone should follow is to NEVER trust anyone that asks you to DM them for more information. If they're posting something trustworthy, there's no reason they can't just lay out all the details publicly!

Anyone else have anything to contribute?
