TIPS ON SAFETY
We at Nagaratharkalyanam.com aim to provide you with a safe
environment where you can meet your dream partner. On our part, we ensure that
the content posted on the site is screened for inappropriate or irrelevant
content. We also have strict abuse-prevention systems in place. However, we
request you to follow the tips below to ensure security.
Guarding your details
You can stay under the garb of anonymity until you trust the
other person enough to reveal further details. This will give you control of
the way things move. Never feel compelled to reveal your name and contact
details until you are ready.
Proceed slowly
Create a separate email account that does not include your
real name or contact details in it. Use this to communicate with members. Be
aware and watch out for odd behaviour on emails. You could even get a trusted
friend read the initial mails to spot any warning signs of erratic behaviour
that you might miss.
Request a photo
A photo will give you a fair idea about a person. Request a
photo, if a person is not keen on providing one, it is likely that he or she
has something to hide.
Talk over the phone
Once you have made the initial series of emails and are
comfortable enough to talk, start conversing. Call from a pre-paid number.
Furnish your phone number only after you feel confident about the other person.
Meet safely
Meet the other person only when you are confident about him or
her. Meet in a common place like a restaurant. Never meet in lonely places or
accept lifts at least during the initial meetings. Do take a friend or relative
along for the first meeting and ask him or her to do the same. If you are going
to meet alone, do leave the name, address and phone number of the place with
family or friends.
Stay away from scams
There are some people who try to exploit others under the garb
of being suitors. If you are asked for money, refuse diplomatically. A genuine
person will not ask those whom they do not know well or intend to marry, for
any money.
Warning signs
Meetings are important to get to know better about the other
person. Ask a lot of questions and watch out for inconsistencies that help you
spot the con-artists. Pay close attention to the behaviour of the other person
while you are with him or her. Pay attention to displays of anger, intense
frustration or attempts to pressure or control you. The other warning signs to
beware of are acting in a resentful manner, making demeaning or disrespectful
comments or any physically inappropriate behavior.
