**SafeOrStolen Partners with FasterCapital to Tackle Fraud and Build Trust in the Secondhand Market**

Peoria, AZ & Dubai, UAE – August 11, 2025 – SafeOrStolen, a next-generation security technology company, announces a major partnership with FasterCapital through its LaunchUp program. The partnership coincides with the official launch of the SafeOrStolen mobile app (available for iOS, Android) and live website ([safeorstolen.com](https://safeorstolen.com)), now providing instant legitimacy checks for used merchandise to consumers and businesses worldwide.

**Addressing Market Challenges**  
The secondhand market has exploded in value, projected to surpass $250 billion globally in 2025. Platforms like Facebook Marketplace, eBay, and OfferUp handle millions of listings, but many buyers and sellers remain unprotected—risking financial losses, ruined reputations, and costly legal entanglements from unknowingly transacting in stolen goods. Until now, there has been no simple, reliable way for honest users to verify items before buying or selling.

**The SafeOrStolen Solution**  
SafeOrStolen delivers an intuitive app and website that empower anyone to check a phone, electronic, vehicle, or other item using its IMEI, VIN, or serial number. Users get immediate verification by tapping into global databases from law enforcement, insurers, and trusted registries. Key features include lightning-fast scanning, real-time status results, user-submitted police report uploads for added transparency, and strong privacy protection for all participants.

With SafeOrStolen, both buyers and sellers are protected—not only from fraud and scams, but from inadvertently losing money, suffering reputational damage, or facing legal action. The platform serves individuals making casual purchases and business resellers handling high transaction volume.

**Why the FasterCapital Partnership Matters**  
FasterCapital’s LaunchUp accelerator provides SafeOrStolen with world-class mentorship, capital-raising guidance, and access to a global entrepreneurial network. The partnership will turbocharge SafeOrStolen’s growth, aiming for 350,000 to 500,000 users in the first year and more than one million globally by year two. With this support, SafeOrStolen will continue to expand features, grow its impact, and introduce premium services for advanced verification and enterprise customers.

**What Industry Leaders Are Saying**  
Hesham Zreik, Founder & CEO of FasterCapital, said: “SafeOrStolen is exactly the kind of impactful, scalable solution the market needs. We believe their technology will provide peace of mind to millions of secondhand buyers and sellers, setting a new standard for marketplace safety.”

Samuel Pfeiffer, Founder & CEO of SafeOrStolen, added: “Our mission is to ensure that anyone—anywhere—can safely buy or sell secondhand, free from financial, reputational, or legal risk. Our partnership with FasterCapital supercharges that mission, bringing real-world protection to every transaction.”

**Looking Forward**  
SafeOrStolen’s long-term vision is a world where verifying secondhand goods is as normal as checking the weather—routine, instant, and universally trusted. With support from FasterCapital, the company is actively seeking $500,000 in growth funding to accelerate product development, scale marketing, and expand its global reach. The rollout of the SafeOrStolen app and website marks a turning point in how individuals and companies can confidently participate in the booming resale economy.
