1
Bring out your inner detective.
Before getting involved with someone you meet on a dating app, take some time to search for their online presence and verify their identity. Look for inconsistencies or red flags in their profile, and use reverse image search to ensure their profile pictures are authentic.
2
Be a mystery
Not only do most women love some mysterious vibes, but it will also keep you safe from scammers.
Keep personal information private: Be cautious about sharing sensitive information like your address, workplace, or financial details with someone you’ve just started talking to on a dating app. Scammers often try to extract personal information for malicious purposes.
3
Suspicious!
Look out for inconsistencies: Pay attention to any inconsistencies or suspicious behavior during conversations. Scammers may use elaborate stories or constantly change their narrative to gain your trust. Trust your instincts and be skeptical if something seems too good to be true.
4
Don’t be a generous hero
Avoid sending money or gifts: Be wary of anyone who asks for financial help or attempts to guilt-trip you into sending money or gifts. Scammers often exploit individuals emotionally to gain their sympathy and manipulate them into providing financial assistance. Never send money to someone you’ve only met online.
5
Meet up in a public space
Meet in a public place: When you decide to meet someone offline from a dating app, always choose a public location for the first few meetings. This ensures your safety and reduces the risk of falling victim to potential scams or dangerous situations. Let a friend or family member know about your plans and consider sharing your live location with someone you trust.
