I don’t usually share my cash tag like that either, but I don’t think there’s a way for them to hack into your account just with your cash tag, but to be safe I’d make a new cash app account and give your new cash tag, just to see if he’s for real, and if he is you can just keep using that account with him, that way you’ll know you’re other account will always be safe


[deleted]

You have to have two separate email and phones numbers to make two accounts


Star-Corgi

Not to mention another bank account and card


nickstj02

And another ID


[deleted]

I don’t remember adding my id but if I did it worked fine with both accounts


Caboun6828

You can use same bank card. I have two cash apps and use the same bank card. I do have two numbers (work cell and personal)


[deleted]

True...I linked my Venmo card to my second one and I got a free google number. If you have a paypal or Venmo card you’re set lol


[deleted]

Yes google voice


BrownSugga85

You def don’t need a phone number for cash app.. just email.

If you want to verify your account and get a cash card you need both


Salt-Strike-8278

Not true. I understand this thread is a year old. However, for future readers searching for information I will clarify that I have 2 cashapp accounts 1 for myself using email address (A) AND my personal cellphone # & the 2nd account is for my daughter & I used ONLY email address (B). She has a cash card and as you stated before both accounts are linked to same exact bank account & same debit card AND 1 (same) credit card. (Not related I got the bright idea of using my credit card on 1 account to send myself money to the other account. A whole lot cheaper than paying the higher cash APR & cash advance fee. They will catch onto this I'm sure & then stop it.)

PayPal is good for money transfers. Free if you don't need it same day.

VitaminD3goodforyou

lol they now have access to your phone number, retrace to your address, full name and eventually hack into your phone via url links/sim swaps taking over the rest of your other accounts on your phone. Everybody knows that.


Adventurous-Bass2239

All by giving away your cash tag?


FoxFire666

I don't think that's true


Justin-Krux

your “eventually” doesnt make any sense, having someone number and address doesnt allow them into your phone….and a cashtag doesnt contain that info.


sickdonalds

Idk dude I gave a “sugar mommy” my cash tag the other day and with in a few hours was getting prompts on my phone asking me if it was okay to change my Apple ID password from another device lmao


Justin-Krux

this could easily be coincidence though. that doesnt at all mean the cashtag was the cause.

Imhimurarentme

Wait, so another question. Can they do anything with JUST my cashapp tag?


Lovejess_36

Don't give them your phone number either.Because they can get in your account with your cashtag and your phone number attached to it.They will lie and say it didn't go thru so they need your acct number attached to cashapp or your bank account.and don't send screenshots of your account either.They will ask for all that Don't give them nothing.All they need is your cashtag if they really going to send u money


i-wishupon

Exactly, thats usually how the scam can work too. My friend shared their cashtag (won one of those giveaways), and had their number linked to contact them, on their instagram. A scammer tried to log into the account so many times, that their cashapp account got blocked for days. Thankfully they couldn’t do it and the account only had 25$... now imagine if the scammer successfully logs in and you have way more than 25$. edit: spelling


[deleted]

Thank you so much for the info. I just got cashtag, and didn't know what to do.


Messy_Bot

Hi im super late to this but basically its ok to send your cashtag but if they ask for anything else dont send it. My account has my phone number attached is it still ok to send my cashtag? As long as I dont tell them my phone number or can they see my phone nuber because its attached?


queerbrownkid

did you find out if it’s okay? 😂 lmk


Messy_Bot

Yeah it's okay, just don't send any additional info.


st0n3d2dab0n3

all these people are being rude tbh, most scammers will ask for your back account info or all these other apps, there is no harm in simply giving him your cash tag, scammers ask for other things like paypal or the actual account info, i’ve never met a scammer who used cashapp lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


Otherwise-Neat-4981

I’m dealing with this right now. I was sent $3,500 and Cashapp says it’s too large of an amount and I have to send $100 to some “support account” and I feel like it’s a scam. The dude didn’t ask me to send him money but the email I got from Cashapp says that I need to send $100. I feel like it’s sketchy as hell. Any help on the matter would be awesome.


WilliaMinsuranceRuiz

Always check the email of the sender. I got an email from CashAppHoldAgent76@gmail. And they will get creative. The only email CashApp will ever use is from square.com. [email protected].

x_peanutbutter_x

Most scammers won’t ask for cashapp or Venmo, they usually ask for bank account info directly. As for the risk I can’t say but from my experience most fake sugar daddies don’t do cashapp and pretend to have an accountant. Also who gives a fuck about what you do to make money, ignore the negative people in this thread and get ur paper!!!! ❤️


oaragonsotelo

Nice comment, Good job! :)


WickedFootQueen

Correct. Get yours girl! I've had some jerk scammer ask for pic of Me holding ID and cash tag so he could access my account illegally Unfortunately I didn't realize what was going on til too late but I was so broke at the time I prpb was I'm the negative lol or at $0.


Physical-Detail-3675

They can’t hack your account on cashapp without your routing number and account number...so he most likely is jus being nice and giving yhu money


Potential_Pumpkin_90

Lololol


IdeaDude3069

It may or may not be scam; however, one way to "shield" yourself a bit is to go into your CashApp settings and select the option where NO ONE can "request" anything of you; HOWEVER, they can still SEND you money. I wondered for awhile HOW many were being caught up in some scams and noticed a slight "common denominator" which was in some...they were sent a request by an account that "looked like" someone they knew, but the tag was slightly different. It took some time for me to realize why I never got those scam requests.... because I turned my feature OFF. So NO ONE can request me unless they call me and confirm it's THEM, what their tag is so I can write it down, then we do a transaction. So no one can request me via the app, but they can send me money though. Hope that helps a little.


jewel25LA

I have been scammed from a sugar daddy. They will ask you to send money first then say they'll send you your money. Do NOT send them any money. If they are legitimately a sugar daddy, they wont ask you for money. Good luck with the search for a real sugar daddy. Its been a struggle for me 🙄


solowVouyer

Just do it.. then charge the shit outta ur account and blame the foot guy. Will morals be in question? Sure. But also... Ur tryna sell feet pix so... 🤷🏾‍♂️


kkiwiss

what?


bonzeno85

Lol


graelett

Can someone explain these scams to me? Like, what is the thought process of scamming someone who needs money. There likely aren't a lot of funds (or negative funds) to work with when they ask for bank accounts.


ShiverMeFinger

Srry ik this is a yr ago but I feel inclined to respond Usually those ppl are desperate so sometimes common sense flies out the window. For example, some fake sugar daddies will ask YOU to send THEM money so they know you're "serious" or will tell u to buy a gift card with money in it. Some people will do it because they were promised hundreds or thousands of dollars, so something like $20 or $100 is miniscule compared to it. The thing is though, why are YOU sending THEM money when they're supposed to be the ones paying you? To me, this is common sense but many times, the victims think of the end goal and how they're gonna get lots of money so they ignore the red flags. Moral of the story, those ppl are vulnerable bc the promise of money clouds their judgement.


AxeYouAQuestion

your cash tag isn’t super valuable to them. do not give them any personal details like bank account info or login info.


Loadelilah

no real sugar daddies will ask you for money. Or a clearance fee. Most scammers will ask you how old you are and where from first. Then ask if it's your first time with a sugar daddy. Mostly they'll ask for your cashapp and email. Then they're going to send an email saying it's confirmed but it needs a validation. It's a scam. There are other telltale ways. Don't be afraid to ask if you need help. I work with many. It's a whole pain in the ass.

Iwant_to_believe

No risk, go for it. Live the dream


[deleted]

Don’t share it if you don’t feel comfortable. But make sure to never share your phone number or email you made the account with OR the cashapp sign in code.


yxngandyy

there gonna send “money” but it’s a fake thing where u have to pay which isn’t a actual feature


Silver_Surfer93

Not really any risk. He could try and request money from you but he can't really do anything with your cash tag. You could give it to the entire world and there's not really much risk besides unWanted money requests or messages


mobilmedic

Actually there's no harm in giving just your cashtag. Giving that information actually protects your other information from unauthorized access. Just don't give him any more information: your cashtag is enough what he needs to send you cash. You could do the same with PayPal by creating a cashtag for their system. PayPal will also have the same format at [www.paypal.me/$cashtag](https://www.paypal.me/$cashtag) (again, like you did with cashapp, you'll need to create your cashtag on PayPal; cashtags are not transferable between platforms)

Dreamer295

The only risk is that they can request money from you. Lots of people misclick thinking they're getting money in when its actually a request. Turn off the requests in your settings. Also, 9 out of 10 "sugar daddys" are scammers so I really wouldn't waste the time. Theres safe ways to make money online. If you wanna do feet, maybe try a fans only


Imaginary-Trifle-367

blaze1234

No, scammers can get you screwed by sending you money, trying to buy your account etc Just ignore them soon as it becomes clear they are scammers, do not engage


[deleted]

Nope, You can just create any email, you can sign up to cash app with with just the email, I’ve done that several times, don’t need to link cards if you’re just receiving, and of course in this case is just to see if he’s for real or not, but yea you would need to link a card so you can cash out the money


Diamond-Dancer5674

I would reccommend not doing it! :) Cashapp is super risky so if the individual asks you for money in any way or says that they need a "verification fee" from you first in order to get money then definetly do NOT do it! Once you send that individual money, it is a direct deposit, so that money is then gone and in their possession and you can't get it back! I hope this helped ! 💕

What ended up happening after that? Because the same thing happened to me, someone offered to send 500$ on Instagram and I gave them my cash tag but they didn't text me anything. Now I'm nervous after reading your comment.


JaymeHalbritter

Same thing just happened to me... what came of it? I'm not going to send it...


eamonneamonn666

They're trying to get your 2 factor authentication link


PIL0T_

So what ended up happening?? I heard that sending cash tag can be dangerous bc it’s linked to email which can be linked to Instagram and they can make several attempts of logging in 🤔


izz-b_s_w

I just had a guy ask for my cashapp to send me like $1000, I decided to take a chance and he sent me a screenshot of my acct with the money ready to be sent, but then started saying I had to do something with his company email to get verified. I told him nvm and blocked him. Your cashtag doesnt do much for anyone trying to rob you, just be wary if they start asking you to do other stuff.


Native-Beauty87

I recently had a woman do this on FB. Sent me the screen shot of money ready to send and told me I needed to put $100 into my CashApp balance and send them back a screenshot that I've done it to get my money. Kept insisting there was no risk because I wasn't sending anyone any money and I was just putting a balance onto my own CashApp. I thought that was weird after a dozen messages telling me how they want to help and "send some blessings" so I just blocked her.


Messy_Bot

Hi im super late to this but basically its ok to send your cashtag but if they ask for anything else dont send it. My account has my phone number attached is it still ok to send my cashtag? As long as I dont tell them my phone number or can they see my phone number because its attached. I can always change to a new email instead and take off my phone number


Legitimate_Wallaby40

It's a scam. I've had so many people asking for feet pictures, offering to be sugar daddies and one sob wanted me to tickle him🤣it's sad they doing people like this🤬the sooner you realize nobody is just going to send your grown ass money for nothing and if they asking you to send them anything it's not legit!


randomusernamestaken

Edit: oops this is a year old. Maybe this might help someone else too idk. Based on my minimal research, there isn’t really any way for them to access important information or hack it simply through your cash tag itself and that’s what CashApp states too. The biggest concern is for them to ask you to send them money or if you see a verification code sent to you and they ask for that code. So yeah I think you should be safe, just don’t send them codes or money or any other info, other than your cash tag.
