I take only cash no matter the excuse. It's your money.
Bring a friend with you when you meet the buyers.

Correct.
But.
I do just the opposite. I use a throw away email address. I never give out my phone number at first.
Only after I get the phone number from potential buyer.
I don't deliver. I don't meet (distance) half way. Meet at a public place. And if you have never done this before or live in a high crime area - take a friend.
Cash paper money. And if a lot - meet at bank and verify bills. In my area the bills faked the most are the $20.00. Yes, you can buy a pen to verify paper bills.
Zero - No checks no matter what the story is or what the check is.
For a large money sale - wire transfer only.
All checks can be faked no matter what anyone states here.
