2013, due to the number of puppy mills that sell sick or abused animals through online classifieds platforms, Geebo decided to stop accepting ads for pets. In May 2015, Geebo partnered with the AIM Group's SafeTrade Station initiative in order to provide a list of safe trading spots at police stations across the country. In 2016, in response to the Orlando nightclub shooting and other mass shootings, Geebo stopped accepting ads for firearms even though no firearms-related crimes were ever linked to Geebo. In February 2019, Geebo announced that they were monitoring the responses to ads made through the Geebo platform in order to try to prevent users from being contacted by obvious scammers.
