Bug Watch Out For Online Dating Scams
As the title suggests we thought it might be good to alert users to the possibility of online scammers that target the various dating websites. In most cases the scammers operate from outside of Australia and are running different scams relating to health and personal hardship. They work to earn the victims trust and at some point an operation or airfare or something is needed so a request for money soon follows, then another and another.. Before you know it your the victim of a scam and your out of pocket. The rule is simple, don't ever send money to people who contact you via any website, dating, myspace, facebook or any other site your a member of. Email request for money should also be ignored and put straight into the junk folder. We partner with some of the biggest dating sites in Austalia and they have millions of Aussie members and profile verification measures in place, try running some searches from the boxes at the top of the page to see who is available in your area.
