What happens when I see a safety warning before sending money?
Safety warnings are real-time alerts designed to help you identify potentially risky transactions. These notifications act as an extra layer of security to protect your funds.
Understanding safety alerts
-
Identify the risk: The app may display a warning if a transfer appears unusual, such as sending money to a newly created account or a recipient flagged by other users.
-
Read the prompt carefully: Review the specific details provided in the alert message. These warnings highlight why the transaction was flagged as a potential risk.
-
Evaluate the recipient: Take a moment to verify that you are sending money to a trusted source. If the recipient is asking for payment under suspicious circumstances, stop the transaction.
-
Decide how to proceed: You have the option to cancel the transfer immediately. You should only proceed if you are 100% certain of the recipient's identity and the purpose of the payment.

Our protection commitment: These messages are automated safety measures integrated into the app to help prevent fraud and unauthorized transfers.
