We've updated our Community Guidelines to improve their organization and structure, making them easier for everyone to understand. What's new is a more navigable, accessible, and detailed presentation of these rules.

At Whatnot, we’re always working hard to keep the platform a fun and trustworthy place. So today, we want to provide you with an update on how we’re tackling scams on Whatnot: detecting bad actors more quickly, shutting down their accounts, and preventing them from coming back.

Whatnot is one of the fastest-growing marketplaces in the world, and with that growth comes increased responsibility to ensure safety at every stage of the buying and selling experience.

While Whatnot was built to create a safe, welcoming space for people to share their passions with others, a few years ago we recognized that the Sports Card community presented unique trust and safety challenges that needed solving.

The Whatnot Trust & Safety team plays a critical role in identifying issues and enforcing policies to help keep our community safe. Today, we’ll dig a bit deeper into how we evaluate, investigate, and take action on cases involving fraud, behavioral or logistical issues.
