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.
