Buying used? Ask for photos proven real, not AI.

How it works between a seller and a buyer

Four steps for each side. Neither of you needs an account.

If you’re selling

Show buyers the real thing, photographed today. When buyers can check your photos, an honest listing stands apart from a copied one.

1. Install RIALITI Capture. It’s free on Google Play and takes a minute.
2. Photograph it inside the app. Your two-wheeler, car or phone, as it is today. Only photos taken in RIALITI Capture can be checked, and if anyone edits one later, by hand or with AI, it no longer matches.
3. Send them wherever you already sell. Share straight from the app to OLX, Instagram, a WhatsApp group or Facebook Marketplace.
4. The record travels with the photo. Anyone can check it, even after WhatsApp has shrunk it.

The photos go out the usual way: OLX, Instagram, WhatsApp groups, Facebook Marketplace.

If you’re buying

Rajasthan Police arrested 21 people over 101 complaints and nearly Rs 18.60 crore in fraud. The gang drew people in with cheap vehicle offers on platforms like OLX.

In an earlier Tamil Nadu case, police said the vehicle photos sent to buyers were taken from the internet.

1. Ask for photos taken in RIALITI Capture. It’s free for the seller and takes them a minute on an Android phone.
2. **Open check.rialiti.io.** It works in any browser, on any phone. No app needed.
3. Upload the photo you were sent. Save it from the chat or the listing first. A copy that came through WhatsApp is fine.
4. Read the answer, then still see it before you pay. A match tells you the photo is real and when it was taken; an AI image or an AI-edited photo traces back to nothing. A match does not make an advance payment safe.

What the answer means

• A match means the photo was taken in RIALITI Capture, is not edited, and shows what was really in front of that phone on the date shown.
• An AI image, or a photo edited with AI, traces back to nothing. It has no record to match, so it can’t be proven real.
• It does not check the seller, the price or the payment. A photo with no match proves nothing either way, so treat the check as one step in the list below, never a replacement for it.

Before you pay

The photo check is one step. The rest comes from police and RBI guidance. Tick them off as you go.

• Ask for photos taken in RIALITI Capture. Check them free at check.rialiti.io before you travel or pay.
• See it in person before any money moves. Mumbai Cyber Police: “Never pay advance without physical verification of property.” Their rental alert also flags unusually attractive photos (Free Press Journal, 4 November 2025).
• Never pay a booking amount to a stranger. Delhi Police Cyber Cell: “Avoid accepting or making advance payment” (Delhi Police).
• Never scan a QR code to receive money. RBI: you scan QR codes to send money, not to receive it, and receiving money never needs your PIN or OTP (RBI Kehta Hai).
• Treat a rush as a warning. Delhi Police Cyber Cell: a buyer or seller in “unreasonable hurry” is a likely fraudster.
• Check the person, not only the photo. Delhi Police Cyber Cell: verify the buyer or seller before making or receiving payment. RIALITI checks photos, not people.

The ticks stay on this page only. Nothing is saved or sent.
