Dating safety tips

When you meet

• Meet in a busy public place the first time, like a café or restaurant. Not at home, a hotel, or somewhere quiet.
• Tell a friend who you're meeting, where, and roughly when you'll be home.
• Get there and back on your own. Don't have them pick you up at home.
• Keep an eye on your drink, and know your limits with alcohol.
• If you feel uncomfortable, just leave. No need to apologize.

Money? Always no

• Never send money, lend money, or buy gift cards for someone you met online, no matter how sad or urgent their story is.
• If they bring up investments, crypto, gambling sites, or offer to "help you make money", it's almost always a scam.
• Be careful if someone says they love you after a few days, or rushes you to move to another messaging app.
• Never share your passwords, verification codes, or ID photos.

Report anyone suspicious

You can report or block someone from their profile or your chat with them. They won't know it was you, and we review every report within 24 hours.

Please report anyone who asks for money, sells something, harasses you, sends explicit photos, uses someone else's photos, or looks under 18.

If you're in immediate danger, call 110 (police) first.

What the blue check means

A blue check on a profile means the person passed real-person verification: they took a selfie doing a pose we asked for, and our review team confirmed it matches their profile photos.

It only means the photos are really them. It doesn't mean we've checked their identity, background, or character. Follow the tips above with verified users too.
