⚠ 10 Safety Rules for Online Dating

  1. Never share financial information. No legitimate date will ask for money, gift cards, or bank details.
  2. Use the platform's messaging system. Don't give out your phone number or personal email too quickly.
  3. Video chat before meeting. A quick video call confirms the person matches their photos.
  4. Meet in public places. Always choose a public location for your first few dates.
  5. Tell someone where you're going. Share your date's name, location, and expected return time with a friend.
  6. Trust your instincts. If something feels off, it probably is. Don't ignore red flags.
  7. Keep personal details private. Avoid sharing your home address, workplace, or daily routine early on.
  8. Report suspicious behavior. Use the platform's report feature for harassment or scams.
  9. Don't rush. Take time to get to know someone before meeting in person or sharing more about yourself.
  10. Use reverse image search. If a profile seems too perfect, check if the photos are stolen from elsewhere.
