How to Protect Yourself
Only Send to Trusted Individuals
Cash App is designed for sending money to friends, family, and trusted small businesses. Avoid sending money to strangers.
Verify Recipient Details
Always double-check the recipient's $Cashtag, phone number, or email before sending money. A typo can send money to the wrong person.
Enable Security Locks
Set up a PIN or Touch ID/Face ID for all transactions. This adds an extra layer of security to prevent unauthorized access.
Be Wary of "Free Money" Offers
If an offer seems too good to be true, it probably is. Legitimate giveaways and money offers don't require upfront payments.
Report Suspicious Activity
If you suspect a scam or unauthorized transaction, report it immediately within the Cash App or to official support channels.
