Has anyone experience any problems with buyers from Turkey?

I have a buyer from Turkey who is purchasing a lot of my antique porcelain. He will be paying with a credit card through Square as PayPal is not allowed to operate in Turkey. Has anyone had any problem with International scammers buying online?

@susanchvala while accepting international cards with visa/mastercard/amex logos is perfectly fine with square, I would be careful as international chargebacks can happen.  I would want to know the customer and maybe even make sure the billing address and shipping address are the same, don't allow shipping changes, get a copy of the buyer's ID, or other information.  Ultimately the risk is on you, so I would be very careful selling antiques, especially with someone you do not know.

 

Just my 2c.
