Rooms safety

Inspect first. Pay second.

ApnaMate hides the exact address until the room owner approves a request, but approval is not verification of ownership or legitimacy.

Rental-scam warning signs

  • The advertiser refuses an inspection or says they are overseas but demands a bond or rent first.
  • The price is far below similar rooms and you are pressured to act immediately.
  • You are asked to send money by cryptocurrency, gift card, wire transfer or a payment link outside a trusted service.
  • The photos or description appear copied, inconsistent or linked to a different address.
  • You are asked for a passport, driver licence or bank login before verifying the property and advertiser.

Safer steps

Keep communication in ApnaMate. Inspect in person or use a trusted representative. Confirm who controls the property, read the agreement, understand bond handling in your state or territory, and do not send unnecessary identity documents. If money was sent to a scammer, contact your bank immediately.
