Quite often, mostly because of the solitude, many of us begin working with internet dating sites for finding either a good friend, a bride or a companion. However, oftentimes this can end up in a genuine nightmare. To stay away from this, one should respect some essential rules that I will share during this article.
Dating sites scams are in a multitude of variants. From guys pretending to be sexy girls, to fake wealthy entrepreneurs that are in a foreign country and urgently need a loan, these criminals are often very well prepared, endowed with all the psychological know-how required to easily persuade believers.
In order not to become a target, the golden rule is never to send money to individuals met on this kind of sites, without meeting them in real first. This is due to the fact all over the world, but especially in Eastern Europe, Asia and Africa, there are people using such sites with the only goal of getting funds. Undoubtedly, they have no interest in actually dating you. They are using various stories in an effort to make one send them money, with a high dose of thrill: some family member needs an immediate surgical treatment, they need money for college and so on. If they will ask you for money in order to buy airplane tickets in order to travel to you, then ensure you do not make the error of sending them. Instead, you can buy the digital ticket on the web.
The favorite method they have for receiving money is always Western Union, even that infrequently they can use other funds transfer services. The main attribute of this is the fact that any transfer made is not able to be undone. So, you will not stand any chance if you will ask to get a refund. They money is gone for good!
I hope that after reading this article, you will all realize the risks involved in using dating sites and you will take all the needed measures in order to protect yourself from these scams and not to become a victim.
