Frequently asked questions

Who can leave a review?
Anyone with a verified email account. We require email verification to keep reviews accountable and reduce fake submissions. You should only review people you've actually transacted with.
How is a trust tier calculated?
It's an aggregate of the reviews on a profile, weighted toward recent activity and reviewer track record. A single bad review won't sink an otherwise solid trader, and one glowing review won't lift an unknown one to "Trusted".
Someone reviewed me unfairly. What can I do?
Claim your profile and reply publicly to set the record straight. If a review is factually false or breaks our rules, open a dispute or contact us and a moderator will review it.
Can I have a review or my profile removed?
Reviews that break our rules (harassment, doxxing, provably false claims) are removed. Genuine negative experiences are not removed simply because they're unflattering. See the Contact page to submit a takedown request.
Is this an official Pokémon service?
No. PokeScammers is an independent, community-run project with no affiliation to The Pokémon Company, Nintendo, or any marketplace.
