If you like to frequent dating apps like Tinder, beware of « romance scammers » whose love of money beats any love for you.
Tinder users are being warned that some users of the dating app are more interested in having a relationship with your money than having a relationship with you. According to EarthWeb (via U.S.Sun) the Tinder app is filled with what they call « romance scammers » who are looking to rip you off. These criminals want to build up your trust and help you develop romantic feelings toward them in order to wipe out your bank account.Once they have your trust, « romance scammers » start asking you for money
These scammers can be found hanging around the Tinder app or other dating sites like Bumble and Hinge. By kissing up to you, they are building up your trust in them while you also develop romantic feelings for these crooks. Once they feel that they have you « hooked, » you’ll get requests for some money, or they might ask for the login info you use for banking and financial apps. Another brazen request they make is for you to buy something for them, perhaps to prove your love.
