How do I advertise on MySoberRoommate?
If you would like to advertise with us, simply contact us and let us know at holler@mysoberroommate.com.
How do I tell the difference between members who have a room to fill and members who need a room?
People who have a room to fill show up in search results as a rectangular photo (or as a drawing of a couch if they haven't uploaded a photo), and people who need a room show up as a circular photo. You can search for members who have a room, need a room, or are open to meeting a roommate and finding a new place together in the Advanced Search.

What do I do if someone sends me an inappropriate or suspicious message?
We care very much about the MSR community and want it to be a safe and positive experience for you. To do that, we need your help! If you get a message that seems suspicious, please hit the "flag" button in the upper right above the sender's picture right away to report them to us, and/or email us a screenshot of the message--the more info you can give us, the better. You can also block a member from contacting you by selecting the "padlock" icon in the upper right above their picture. Please also keep in mind a few tips to help protect yourself, your personal information, and your money:
• Never send money to someone you meet online, especially by wire transfer or money order. We at MySoberRoommate will never message you asking for money. Scammers often request that you wire them money, especially overseas. Don't wire money to strangers or to someone who claims to be in an emergency.
• Never give out your credit card number, bank info, SSN, or other identifying information that someone could abuse.
• Be on the lookout for the hallmarks of a scammer. Red flags typical of scammers include, but are not limited to:
-Quickly asking you to talk or chat on an outside email or messaging service
-Vanishing quickly from the site, then reappearing under a different name
-Talking about destiny or fate
-Claiming to be recently widowed, injured, etc.
-Asking for your full name, address, and/or bank account info under the guise of sending flowers, gifts, money, or certified check
-Making an inordinate amount of grammatical and/or spelling errors
-Claiming to be from the U.S. but currently traveling, living, or working abroad
-Asking you for money
-Claiming to be a MySoberRoommate representative seeking personal information or a deposit.
