> Couple of fairly simple things they could do to at least help somewhat:

Thing is that they don't really care.

Mostly what they care about is handling returns which is what costs them money so they're targeting items with high return rates, and that's it.

They don't actually care about you getting scammed if they get their cut and don't have a lot of overhead.

All of this brainstorming is meaningless when the economic incentives of the company aren't aligned with the consumer.



Yep for sure. Was just a response of simple things they could do, if they cared. Obviously nothing they won't have thought of themselves, was really just pointing out that it's not the case that there's nothing that can be done about it, as the parent comment to mine seemed to suggest.
