Your Safety — Tips for Staying Safe
Matrimonial connections begin online but involve real people and significant life decisions. Please keep the following safety tips in mind:
- Never send money — Do not send money, gift cards, or any form of financial assistance to someone you have only met online, regardless of their story or circumstances.
- Protect your credentials — Never share your passwords, OTPs, banking PINs, or financial account details with anyone you meet on this platform.
- Verify independently — Before making any major personal decision (such as engagement or marriage), independently verify important information such as employment, family background, and identity.
- Meet safely — When meeting someone for the first time, choose a public place, let a trusted person know where you are going, and arrange your own transport.
- Report suspicious behaviour — Use the “Report” button on any profile or message if you suspect fraud, impersonation, or inappropriate behaviour.
- Report money requests — Any user who asks you for money or financial help should be reported immediately.
- Trust your instincts — If something feels wrong, step back and report the profile. Your safety is more important than any connection.
- Emergency services — If you are in immediate danger, contact your local emergency services (dial 100 for police in India). Do not rely on this platform for emergency assistance.
