Reporting Policy

Reports can be submitted for any listing that you believe violates AutoPaddle's policies or poses a risk to other users.

• Suspicious listing: Content that appears fraudulent, too good to be true, or potentially a scam.
• Scam risk: Listings or seller behaviour that raises concerns about financial fraud.
• Wrong information: Inaccurate vehicle details, misrepresented condition, or incorrect specifications.
• Duplicate listing: The same vehicle listed multiple times, potentially to inflate visibility.
• Prohibited content: Listings that include external links, inappropriate content, or violate platform rules.

Submitting a report is straightforward and can be done directly from any listing page.

• Sign in to your AutoPaddle account.
• Navigate to the listing you wish to report.
• Select a reason from the report dropdown in the listing's action panel.
• Optionally, provide additional context in the details field to assist our moderation team.
• Submit the report — our team will review it promptly.

Once a report is received, our moderation team will review it against our policies.

• Reports are reviewed in order of severity — reports involving active fraud are prioritised.
• If a listing is found to be in violation, it will be suspended or permanently removed.
• The seller's account may be suspended, restricted, or banned depending on the severity and history of violations.
• A moderation log entry is created for all reviewed reports for accountability purposes.

The reporting system exists to protect users, not to be weaponised against competitors or individuals with no genuine cause for concern.

• Submitting false or malicious reports is a violation of our Terms of Use.
• Systematic misuse of the reporting feature — such as mass-reporting a specific seller without cause — may result in account action.
• AutoPaddle reserves the right to penalise accounts found to be abusing the reporting system.
