Dangers of Online Dating

Romance Scams | Online Dating Scams | Internet Dating Dangers


Be aware of the potential dangers of online dating. By keeping your wits about you, you'll protect your heart, and your wallet.

Identity theft, scammers, and time wasters abound on the internet (not just on dating sites).

Most dishonest people on dating sites aren't dangerous (although, like anywhere, there are some who are), but can waste your time and potentially break your heart. Married, or cheating on their girlfriends/boyfriends.

It's easy to re-invent yourself on the internet. And therein lies the temptation, for some people, for romance scams.

Take everything you're told by a potential suitor with a grain of salt until you know you can trust them.

Make the time to find the nice people (and they are out there), and you'll benefit in the long run.

Online Dating Scams | Romance Scams

Don't fall victim to an online scam. Be very suspicious of someone who starts a correspondence, and then asks you for money. For any reason.

Mail order bride sites, and free dating sites, are particularly notorious for this.

Visit our Online Dating Scams page.




Identity Theft

Make use of the anonymity the respectable dating sites offer.

Don't use your real name as your user name and never give out your email address.




Spam

Most dating sites have anonymous on-site email. And for good reason.

Don't use your personal email address to correspond until you know and trust the person you're corresponding with.



Cyber Lover Scam | Sexbot

Some dodgy sites don't even feature real human beings! The CyberLover is a computer programme that mimics a real human being. The aim is to get personal information from you. Don't fall for the Sexbot!
