Community Rules

Last updated: 8 November 2026

The rules

  1. Be kind. Disagree about prices, never about people.
  2. No hate, threats, sexual content or anything about children.
  3. No spam, selling or self promotion. eBay links to show a find are fine.
  4. No phone numbers, emails or meeting up to trade. Scammers use them.
  5. Only post photos you took or have the right to share.
  6. Report anything that breaks these rules. Two reports hide a message until the team checks it.

How messages are checked

Every message and photo is checked automatically before it appears. Messages with hate, threats, sexual content, contact details or links other than eBay are stopped. Photos are checked too, and the location data your phone saves inside a photo is removed before it is stored.

Anyone signed in can post once they have agreed to these rules. Photos in messages unlock after 3 days and 5 scans, and there are limits on how fast anyone can post. These limits keep spam out.

Names and photos

You can set a profile photo and a colour, and change your chat name once every 30 days. Profile photos are checked like any other photo.

Reporting and blocking

Hold any message (or right click it on a computer) to report it or block the person who sent it. When 2 different people report a message it is hidden until the team checks it. We review reports within 24 hours. Blocking someone hides their messages from you and stops them tagging you. You can unblock people in the community settings.

What happens if you break the rules

We can remove messages, mute you for a while, or stop your account posting in the community. Serious or illegal content is removed straight away and may be reported to the police or the relevant authority.

Contact and complaints

Report a problem with the report button, in the Help room, or by email to admin@scanjunki.com. If you think we removed your message or limited your account by mistake, email us and a person will look at it again.
