FAQ
Should I report suspicious links?
Yes. Report the account and avoid opening links that ask for login, payment, crypto, or personal information.
What should I do if I already sent money?
Stop communication, block and report the account, contact your bank or payment provider, and preserve receipts or screenshots.
Are paid venue deals or promotions allowed?
Profiles that use SameHive for spam, deceptive offers, fake venue promotions, lead generation, or commercial exploitation may be removed.
Why should I avoid moving off SameHive too quickly?
Scammers often try to move conversations to channels with fewer safety tools. Keep early conversations on SameHive when possible.
Can Premium or credits recover money lost to a scam?
No. Premium and credits are SameHive product features, not financial recovery tools. Contact your bank, card issuer, or payment provider.
