Signs of fraud to watch out for

Here are the key warning signs of scammers. Keep an eye out for these red flags to stay safe:

• Asking for money: Scammers often request money for medical bills, travel expenses, or other excuses.
• Rushing the relationship: If someone professes deep feelings or tries to move things forward too quickly, it’s a potential red flag.
• Avoiding real meetings or video calls: A match who refuses to meet in person or have a video chat may be hiding their true identity.
• Dodging questions: If your match avoids answering your questions but bombards you with their own, they might be trying to steal your identity, access your passwords, passphrases, or other security information.
• Requesting personal information: Be cautious if anyone asks for sensitive details like passwords, credit card numbers, or other private information.
• Pushing for communication off the platform: Scammers often try to move the conversation to a private number or another app to avoid the safety measures of the dating platform.
• Suggestion to follow a link: If someone you’re chatting with sends you a link and insists on you following it, it could be an attempt to steal your data or infect your device with malware.
• Fake verification requests: We never charge for verification. If someone asks for payment to verify your account, they’re a scammer.
• Impersonating Support: Genuine support will never ask for personal information. Always contact our Support Team through verified live chat or by emailing support@kismia.com.
• Underage users: Our platform has an age limit. If you encounter someone underage, report them immediately.

What to do if you suspect a scammer:

• Stop communication and block the user.
• Report the account: Provide details of the scam so we can take action.
