Guide to not getting scammed

Here's a little guide I created, it's not perfect but hopefully it helps and please feel free to build on it.

Not sure if this is allowed, but here's what I do.

I started contacting vendors off IG. Spoke to like +20 via WhatsApp. Got their pricelists and fed it into AI. So when I want something, I put my order into AI and let it come back with the vendor that has the best bang for your buck.

I would take the sellers contact info (usually a screenshot) and upload that into Gemini and prompt it to find any information regarding the sellers number, website etc. The profile images are usually 95% AI generated.

Now. This is where it gets sketchy. A majority, if not all are middle men. Don't fall for the "we are the direct manufacturer" a majority of the time it's bs. Ask for reviews, they should be able to provide you with WhatsApp customer feedback or telegram link, anything. COA's/Quality reports that they provide is a crap shoot and can be forged. Even if they give you a "legit" COA, it's most likely not.

Make sure you have safe guards in place. PayPal - make sure this is a vendor account, so your money is still safe and insured if they don't deliver you can get a refund. Some vendors go with Alibaba as a front, still good, because it still ensures your money is protected.

Get a small order. Something I'll do is get something that you know once pinned, you know it's legit. Like NAD+. If you don't get that nausea or heavy chest side effect, then you know it's bunk or Selank or Semax (there might be others out there that you can try).

You can do 3rd party testing yourself but it's like $300-800 per vial.

Shipping usually takes a few weeks to a month.

Hope this helps!
