At SearchAndaman, your safety and trust are our top priority. We ask for a one-time password (OTP) verification for the following reasons:

1. To confirm your identity
   OTP ensures that the person creating a listing or contacting a service provider is genuine and not a bot or fake account. This helps maintain authenticity on the platform.

2. To protect against fraud
   With OTP verification, we reduce the chances of fraudulent listings, spam, or misuse of the platform. It acts as a security layer for both customers and businesses.

3. To keep your account secure
   OTP ensures that only you have access to your profile and transactions. Even if someone knows your number, they cannot log in without the OTP sent to you.

4. To build trust between buyers and sellers
   Verified users mean verified interactions. Service providers and customers feel safer knowing they are dealing with real people.

In short, OTP verification keeps SearchAndaman safe, reliable, and trustworthy for everyone.
