How to Spot Scams on KENGOT: 6 Warning Signs
admin October 27, 2026
Most people on KENGOT are honest buyers and sellers, but scammers do try their luck on every marketplace. Learn these six warning signs and you will spot almost every scam before it costs you money. 1. Payment before viewing Any seller who asks for M-Pesa, a bank transfer or a deposit before you have seen the item is almost certainly a scammer. Genuine sellers let you inspect first and pay on collection. 2. A price far below the market rate A nearly new iPhone for KES 10,000 or a Toyota Corolla for KES 300,000 is bait.

Posting on KENGOT is free and unlimited, but a well-written ad sells far faster than a rushed one. These five tips will help Kenyan sellers get more calls, more messages and better prices. 1.

Buying in Nairobi is easy on KENGOT, but a few simple checks will keep your money safe. Whether you are buying a phone in the city centre, a sofa in Westlands or a car in Embakasi, follow these five checks before you pay. 1. Meet in a safe public place Meet the seller in a busy public place during the day, such as a shopping mall or a police station car park. Never go to a stranger’s house alone, and take someone with you for high-value items. 2. Inspect the item first Check the item in person before you hand over any money. Switch on phones and laptops, test every button, and check for damage. For vehicles, ask to see the logbook and confirm the chassis number matches. 3. Never pay in advance Never send money by M-Pesa, bank transfer or deposit before you have the item in your hands.
