Practical guide

Avoid fake profiles

Fake profiles remain one of the main risks on dating apps. This guide focuses on practical signals that help you filter better and protect your time.

The best approach is gradual verification, not blind trust or blanket suspicion.

Check profile consistency

A vague bio, contradictory details, or repeated evasive answers are worth noticing. A real person can be discreet without being inconsistent.

Watch for fast escalation

Immediate requests to move off-platform, urgency, or pressure are common low-trust signals.

Use report and block early

Do not wait for extreme behavior. If something feels off, use safety tools early to reduce risk.
