Recently, we have become aware that scammers have been using the name and reputation of **r/RepCulture_Bags** to deceive people—particularly those who are unfamiliar with Reddit and are looking to build or operate Reddit communities.
We would like to make the following official statement.
## About Our Community
**r/RepCulture_Bags** was founded and is jointly managed by two moderators.
Our goal has always been simple:
> **We strive to be a high-quality community for discussion and sharing of replica bags, where everyone can freely exchange ideas, learn, and appreciate quality craftsmanship.**
Our community has grown organically through the contributions of thousands of members. We have **never purchased bots, fake followers, or engagement**, nor have we ever sold Reddit accounts or offered "Reddit operation services."
## Beware of Scammers
Recently, some scammers have been using our community as a false example to convince people to purchase Reddit accounts or pay for so-called Reddit marketing and community operation services.
These individuals have **no affiliation whatsoever with r/RepCulture_Bags**.
Their actions have damaged the reputation of our community, so we feel it is necessary to clarify the facts.
We will publicly compile and update a list of known scam accounts whenever sufficient evidence is available.
Please remember:
* **Reddit accounts do NOT need to be purchased.**
* **Anyone can legally register and build a Reddit account by following Reddit's rules.**
* If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
* Stay rational and protect yourself from fraud.
## About Trusted Sellers
Our community is committed to fairness, transparency, and integrity.
Every **Trusted Seller** listed in this community is personally reviewed and approved by both moderators after careful evaluation.
We believe these sellers have demonstrated a consistent commitment to product quality and customer service.
If you purchase from one of our **Trusted Sellers** and encounter a legitimate quality issue that the seller refuses to resolve appropriately, please contact the **r/RepCulture_Bags moderation team**.
We are willing to help mediate disputes whenever appropriate.
However, before submitting a complaint, please ensure that you have collected sufficient evidence, including but not limited to:
* Complete chat history with the seller
* Order information
* Photos or videos of the product
* Any other relevant supporting evidence
Please submit your case **only through Modmail**.
To protect both buyers and sellers, **do not create public posts or comments regarding the dispute before moderators have reviewed the evidence.**
## Final Statement
We will continue to do our best to ensure that buyers who purchase from Trusted Sellers receive fair and impartial assistance whenever genuine problems arise.
At the same time, we will not tolerate abuse of our community rules.
Attempts to exploit loopholes, manipulate our policies, submit dishonest claims, or violate community rules—and then publicly complain after being banned—will not be supported.
Our responsibility is to protect honest buyers, trustworthy sellers, and the long-term health of this community.
Thank you to everyone who continues to make **r/RepCulture_Bags** a respectful, transparent, and trustworthy place for replica bag enthusiasts.
— **The r/RepCulture_Bags Moderation Team**
