Safety Tips for Online Dates

Today, several platforms offer different possibilities for online dates. It always seems very tempting to meet someone in the comfort of your home with a screen in between. Maybe too comfortable?

Unfortunately, many today take advantage of social networks for scams. A common strategy is to use information stolen from social networks to create a fake persona.

Some even use the term Sugar Daddy to hide their bad intentions. In short, they propose to buy photos or videos of girls naked or having sex. However, what happens next is that they don’t pay and use the video and photos to blackmail the victims.

And that’s why you shouldn’t sell any compromising photos or videos on a social platform where people could easily identify you and your friends.
