Ask HN: How to receive money when you don't trust the buyer?

1 points by whrobbins 9 years ago | 1 comment

I'm selling an Android app to somebody in Asia. Unfortunately I have no reason to trust the buyer.

Wire transfers require my account numbers, and PayPal is too easily reversible.

Does anyone have experience with something like this? How can I facilitate a transfer without leaving myself open to high risk?
