1. Evaluate the Channel’s History and Activity
Check the channel’s age, usage frequency, and activity. A well-established channel with consistent usage and no signs of spam or involvement in suspicious groups is far safer than a freshly created one. Look for:
- The channel’s creation date: Older channels with a clean history tend to be more trustworthy.
- Post activity and group memberships: Ensure the channel hasn’t been part of any banned or flagged groups for inappropriate behavior.
- Red flags: Be cautious if the channel shows signs of spammy activity or has a history of bans. A “clean” history is essential for long-term viability.
2. Examine the Follower/Contact List Quality
When it comes to followers, quality trumps quantity. Fake channels often come with inflated numbers of bot followers or inactive members, which can harm your credibility. Instead of focusing on follower count, prioritize:
- Real engagement: Do the channel’s followers actively engage with posts?
- Relevant contacts: Ensure the followers are relevant to your niche or intended purpose. Generic or irrelevant followers may not be beneficial in the long run.
3. Verify the Seller’s Credibility
The risk of scams or fraudulent sellers is high, so it’s vital to verify the seller’s channel legitimacy before proceeding. To protect yourself:
- Request proof of ownership: Ask for recent login screenshots, chat history, or other verifiable proof that the channel belongs to the seller.
- Seller reputation: Work only with sellers who have a solid track record or positive reviews. Trusted marketplaces and forums are your best bet.
- Avoid shady sellers: If anything feels off or too good to be true, proceed with caution.
Note: Click the Chat button to ask for the channel name and communicate directly with the seller. You can ask any questions you need before purchase. It is important to know how to complete the transaction or escrow securely in the Sebuda marketplace.
