Dating Safety
Scams, catfishing, privacy, red flags, safe meetings
Meeting people online works best when you protect yourself along the way. Dating safety advice here covers the risks that come up most often — romance scams, catfishing, oversharing personal information — and the habits that reduce them, from checking who you are talking to before a first date to choosing where to meet.
Our online dating safety guide walks through the whole process from the first message to the first date. Safety features also differ between apps, so check the dating app reviews before you sign up, and read up on relationship red flags to spot problems early.
