Reporting Prohibited or Illegal Items/Content

markto.ch maintains strict rules against prohibited or illegal items and content. Reporting such listings helps protect the community and ensures the platform remains a safe and trustworthy marketplace.

1. Identify Prohibited or Illegal Content
Examples of items or content that should be reported include:

  • Illegal goods (e.g., drugs, weapons, counterfeit products)
  • Stolen property or items obtained unlawfully
  • Offensive, hateful, or discriminatory material
  • Fraudulent services or misleading advertisements

2. Use the Report Feature

  • Locate the “Report” or “Verstoß melden” button on the listing, advertisement, or user profile.
  • Click the button to open the reporting form and flag the content for review.

3. Select the Appropriate Category

  • Choose the reason that best describes the violation, such as illegal item, prohibited content, or fraudulent listing.
  • Accurate categorization helps the moderation team process the report efficiently.

4. Provide Supporting Details

  • Include any relevant information that may help moderators assess the situation, such as suspicious descriptions, images, or messages from the seller.
  • The more context you provide, the easier it is for the team to take appropriate action.

5. Submission and Review

  • Submit the report, which is then reviewed by the platform’s moderation team.
  • The team evaluates whether the listing violates markto.ch policies or applicable laws.

6. Actions Taken by markto.ch
Depending on the severity of the violation, actions may include:

  • Immediate removal of the listing or content
  • Suspension or banning of the user account
