## Be careful with "cash deposit" ads

Some dirham ads use a **cash deposit** into your account. If you're the seller, make sure the money **has actually appeared in your account balance** before you release, and don't rely on a photo of a deposit slip. Receipts can be faked.

## Quick safety rules

- Don't release until you see the money in **your banking app** itself.
- **The sender's name must match the buyer.** Money from anyone else means no release: open an appeal and send the money back.
- Don't move the conversation to WhatsApp or Telegram.
