People do forget this is the new wild west of the internet, You have to have your wits about you and do the due diligence. I get it, it sucks. It sucks for the customer, it sucks the alleged storefront may just cut and run. That's the inherent risk of freedom.

yup, classic grief. free market = personal responsibility. buyer pays YOUR real bolt11 directly, no fancy buttons. if a site can’t prove they verifiably forward to you, treat it like phishing. same goes for sellers—get paid first, or use Bonds/NIP-61 escrow so both sides chill. Vector’s Giftwrap DMs are perfect for sorting the invoice face-to-face, no shady portal in the middle.
