Meeting people on the Internet is becoming more common, and many couples find each other on online platforms. However, as in any other form of dating, there is a risk of falling for a scammer. Here are some tips that can help you check how real your new acquaintance is:
Study her profile and photos. If the profile looks incomplete, with low quality photos or inconsistent photos, this may be a sign that this is not a real person.
If the photos look too professional or perfect, they may not be photos of your new acquaintance.
Check her social networks. If your new acquaintance has other social media accounts and they match the information he gave you, this may be additional confirmation of his identity. However, keep in mind that scammers can create fake accounts on social networks, so you need to be careful and conduct additional verification.
Make a video call. If your new friend does not want to make a video call, this may be a sign that he is hiding something or is not a real person. A video call will allow you to see your new acquaintance in real time and verify his identity. Be careful with financial requests. If your new acquaintance starts asking for financial help or personal information, this could be a sign of a scam.
Never give out personal information or money to people you just met online. Take your time. Never trust a new acquaintance too quickly. Find out more information about him, take the time to understand how real he is and be careful what you do.
Send bouquet with verification/photo of delivery. If the recipient agrees to the photo, he/she most likely has nothing to hide.
As in any situation, it is important to be careful and act with common sense. If you have any doubts about the identity of your new acquaintance, it is best to refrain from communicating with him and not revealing personal information to him. If you do decide to continue communicating, then make sure you are protected and do not risk your safety. In general, it is important to remember that there are many scammers and deceivers on the Internet who use various techniques to deceive innocent people.
But, if you take precautions and use the available tools to verify the identity of your new acquaintance, then you will have a better chance of finding true love and avoiding trouble.
