Sharing your exciting ACBuy finds helps the community discover new and trustworthy sellers. However, sharing the wrong way can accidentally expose your personal information. This guide explains the secure method to generate non-expiring links and share them safely.
Why Standard Sharing Can Be Risky
Direct links from your browser's address bar often contain session IDs or temporary tokens. Sharing these can:
- Leak your account identity:
- Grant unauthorized access:
- Reveal search parameters:
Always use the platform's official sharing feature for safety.
Step 1: Generate a Safe, Non-Expiring Link
Never copy the URL from the top of your browser. Instead:
- Navigate to the item or seller page on ACBuy you wish to share.
- Look for the official "Share""Copy Link"
- Click it. This generates a clean, public, and non-expiring link designed for sharing. This link contains no personal tracking data.
Tip: These official share links are often shortened or formatted differently from your browser's URL.
Step 2: Prepare Your Post for Reddit or Discord
Context is key for a helpful share. Include this information:
- Item/Seller Name:
- Price Range:
- Key Feature:
- Your Experience (Optional):
Step 3: Sharing Platform-Specific Tips
On Reddit:
Follow the specific rules of the subreddit (e.g., r/ACBuy, r/Reps).
- Use the "Link"
- Or, create a text post
- Always add post flair
- Engage in the comments to answer questions from other users.
On Discord:
Use the appropriate dedicated channel (e.g., #finds, #seller-finds).
- Paste your safe ACBuy link directly into the chat.
- Discord will often generate a link preview. Ensure the preview shows the correct item.
- Add a brief comment above the link to explain your find.
- Never share links via Direct Message to unknown users unless you fully trust them.
Final Security Checklist
Before you hit "Post," double-check:
- ✅ I used the official "Share" button, not my browser's address bar.
- ✅ The link does not contain
- ✅ I am not sharing
- ✅ My post focuses on the item/seller, not my personal details.
By following these steps, you contribute valuable finds to the community while keeping your ACBuy account and personal information completely secure. Happy and safe sharing!
