Tips for Connecting Safely

TryMyWork is committed to your security and safety, but online connections can open you up to risk.  There have been several reported crimes linked to online commerce.  In the interest of your security we want to remind you of steps you can take to stay safe while using TryMyWork.  If you have any safety concerns please let us know at (970) 631-8746.

To reduce your risk, follow these tips from Dan Clements and Owen Rubin, private security specialists:
·       Pick a public place to meet
·       Do not include a home phone or address in your listing
·       Set a specific time and place to meet

If you are either a Service Provider or a Customer travelling to a first meeting you also should:
·       Tell a friend or family member where you're going
·       Take your cell phone along if you have one
·       Consider having a friend accompany you
·       Know who you are meeting
