Selling my old phone on eBay. How do I protect myself?

It's an LG Thin Q 7 with fingerprint recognition. I am almost positive that the battery is non removable and there is no SIM card. I reset it to the factory settings with data wipe out. Is there anything else I need to do?

If you’re in an urban area, consider selling locally via Craigslist or FB Marketplace, for cash. I’ve had a disturbing number of scam buyers when selling electronics on eBay.

You should encrypt the phone and then wipe it for security reasons.
