Keeping your account secure

Most thefts from financial accounts begin with a trick, not a hack. These few habits keep your account safe from the common ones.

Turn on two-factor sign-in

Once it is on, anything that moves money asks for the app's code too.

  1. 1Under Profile → Security, turn on two-factor sign-in.
  2. 2Scan the QR code with an authenticator app (such as Google Authenticator or Authy).
  3. 3Keep the recovery codes somewhere safe and off your phone. Each works once, and if you lose your phone they are your way back in.

Never give anyone your codes

  • No one at Sarafi Iranian will ever ask for your SMS code, your two-factor code or your password.
  • Check the address before typing a password: sarafiranian.com. Links sent in messengers may lead to a fake site.
  • If your SIM card suddenly stops working, contact your carrier and the exchange's support at once; someone may have had a SIM issued in your name.

Withdrawal destinations

Every new withdrawal address or account waits for a while (a day by default) before its first use, and you are told about it. If you did not add it, disown it from that message; a disowned destination can never be approved again.

If something looks wrong

  1. 1Change your password. Changing it signs out every other session on your account.
  2. 2Turn on two-factor sign-in, or generate new recovery codes.
  3. 3Contact support so the account can be checked.
