How do I spot a scam?

Nearly every scam has the same shape: it wants money, it wants the conversation somewhere else, and it wants it quickly.

1. Anybody who asks for money, a gift card, a crypto transfer or bank details is a scam. There are no exceptions to this one.
2. Anybody who wants to move to another app in the first few messages is worth suspecting.
3. Anybody with a story that needs you to act today is applying pressure on purpose.

Report and block. You will not be the only person they have written to.

To report one, use the three-dot menu.
