Safe Collaboration & Scam Prevention

Paid services & professional collaboration on Paira

Paira connects students and professionals for mentorship, mock interviews, resume help, and other growth-focused services. Some users may offer paid support — however, all payments and transactions happen outside of the Paira platform.

Because we are not involved in or able to oversee any financial exchanges, Paira cannot guarantee the outcome of paid agreements. Please proceed cautiously and protect yourself:

Before agreeing to pay

  • Clearly confirm the service, timeline, format, and expected deliverables
  • Review work samples, professional profiles, or credentials
  • Discuss pricing in writing before the service begins

Stay alert for red flags

  • Requests for bank transfers, personal financial data, or rushed decisions
  • Sudden price changes or pressure to pay upfront
  • Promises that sound too good to be true (e.g., guaranteed job offers)

If something doesn't feel right: pause the conversation and report the behavior using Report a Scam or Report a Safety Concern. We review all reports confidentially and take action on violators.

Paira's mission is to support authentic collaboration — not financial risk.

Stay smart, verify information, and only engage in transactions that feel safe and transparent.
