Protect yourself from scams

Your safety is our top priority.

Scams can take many forms online, and we want to help you stay protected. Here are some key things to remember:

Be Cautious:

  • Verify all requests: Always double-check any requests for money (pera padala), personal information, or unusual actions.
  • Be wary of urgent requests: Scammers often try to create a sense of urgency to pressure you into making quick decisions.
  • Request for identification documents and clearances: Files and images can be sent through the kazam chat. You can request for government-issued IDs or law enforcement-issued clearances (NBI and PNP) to verify users you are transacting with.
  • Conduct video interview: The kazam platform allows you to conduct online interviews. Seeing the user and engaging with them in real-time can help you gauge their intentions. You can also double check if the IDs they sent matches the person you are talking with.
  • Use the GPS feature to verify location: You can double check the location of users with the GPS feature especially if they are asking for assistance in transportation.
  • Never send money: Never send money or share your financial details with anyone online, especially if you didn’t initiate the request.

Spotting Potential Scams:

  • Suspicious requests: Be wary of requests for money (pera padala), unusual fees, or sharing personal information.
  • Low salary, with a lot of skills and experience: If the user says they are highly skilled and experienced, but their salary is below or at the minimum threshold, then this may be too good to be true. Beware!
  • Demanding messages: Be cautious of messages that demand immediate action or threat of missing out on their services.
  • Be wary of users who refuse Video Chat: Users who avoid real-time interaction may signify that they have questionable motives.
  • Requests to move off-platform: Be hesitant to move conversations off the kazam platform.

If you encounter any suspicious activity or believe you may have been a victim of a scam, please report it to us immediately.

We are committed to providing a safe and secure platform for all our users.
