Scam listings can look normal
Clean photos and a low price can hide missing proof, vague condition wording, unusual seller signals, or device details that should have been confirmed.

The scam problem
Online shopping scams are already a mass-market problem.
Citizens Advice estimated that more than seven million UK adults were deceived by a scam in the past year, and online shopping was the most common trap. Safeguard is built for the moment before you click buy, when a listing still has time to be questioned.
Pressure makes buyers skip checks
Good tech deals move quickly, so the boring checks are often skipped exactly when they matter most.
The right question is not obvious
A buyer may not know to ask about battery health, IMEI status, serial proof, revision history, included accessories, or return terms until it is too late.
Protection
How Safeguard protects you
No tool can guarantee a listing is safe, but Safeguard slows the decision down and checks the parts scammers rely on buyers missing: proof, condition, seller signals, price context, and unclear wording.
Inside the extension
What Safeguard provides
Safeguard lives on the eBay page while you shop. These are the tools you get the moment the extension is installed, shown exactly as they appear on a real listing.
How it works
Run the check before the purchase decision.
Open the eBay listing
After installing the extension, open the eBay listing you are considering. Safeguard adds a Review with PCIFIC button near the normal eBay buying controls.
Press Review with PCIFIC
PCIFIC pulls listing details through eBay’s official API where available, so the check is faster and less dependent on reading the visible page by hand.
Read it in eBay or the sidebar
The result appears inside the eBay interface and in the extension sidebar, with risks, reassuring signs, seller questions, best next actions, and Checkup handoffs where supported.
No account scraping. No training on your checks.
Pcific Safeguard reviews the eBay listing you choose and uses eBay’s official API where available to get listing details faster. It does not scrape your account activity, does not train models on your data, and does not take buyer actions for you.
- No model training on your data
- Official eBay API for faster listing checks
- No buying, bidding, offers, or messages
Frequently asked questions
What counts as a Safeguard check?
Each buyer listing report or seller listing review you run uses one check. PCIFIC Checkup handoffs and standalone seller-tool helpers stay separate from the core review allowance.
How many checks do I get?
Guests get 3 free buyer checks and 3 free seller reviews while logged out. Signed-in Free accounts get 6 buyer checks and 6 seller reviews each month. PCIFIC Plus gives you a fresh monthly allowance of 150 buyer checks and 150 seller reviews, so upgrading does not subtract the checks you already used.
Are Plus checks more detailed than Free checks?
No. Every PCIFIC check uses the same detailed review standard. PCIFIC Plus gives active users a larger monthly allowance and includes seller tools as they launch.
How does billing work?
PCIFIC Plus is £4.99 per month, billed through Stripe. You can manage or cancel your subscription anytime from the billing portal.
Will Pcific Safeguard act on my account or train on my checks?
No. Pcific Safeguard does not train models on your data and never publishes, buys, bids, makes offers, or sends messages. It uses eBay’s official API where available to read listing details faster and produce guidance for you to review.
Does it guarantee a listing is safe?
No. Pcific Safeguard is a decision-support tool. It helps you notice risks and ask better questions, but you still choose whether to buy.
