When using Cash App to send money, it is recommended

• Only send payments to people who you trust
• Verify and double-check all recipient information before sending any payment to confirm you are sending money to the correct person
• Check the other person’s profile to help determine if it is the correct person
• Don’t send money to someone promising something in the future (like free money in return, for example)
