How to be aware of online dating scammers - Dr Dato’s Brief
Monday, June 13th, 2011
Whichever dating sites that you sign up with, you will likely come across potential dating scammers, but they all try to operate under the radar. Often women are the most targeted by these dating scammers but if you know a few things beforehand you can avoid the frustration of being scammed by such users.
Usually there are tell-tale signs to spot scammers and they start from the actual dating profile that they put up on line.
Sometimes, these dating profiles will have a nice photo and often little information about themselves but that is not to say that they could be legitimate profiles by genuine users who haven’t had the time to update their profile.
Other signs include a message that doesn’t appear to be ‘personalized’. This means that the user has pretty much copied and pasted the same message to the members they want to target. Remember, they need to get through as many as possible in order for them to have success, because often most members will be astute to their game and they just need that one vulnerable single person who is craving for that relationship.
The subject of online dating scam has hit the headlines of big news and due to its importance, I will cover more on this topic in the future.
