Dating platform Scams
Features like 'share my date' aim to help reduce instances of scams on the dating platform. However, misuse is still prevalent. A recent report by Business Today highlighted the problem faced by a 28-year-old man from Delhi who had a bad experience with online dating. He met a woman on Tinder and they decided to meet in person. They went to a café for hookah, cocktails, and nachos. But when the bill came, it was a whopping Rs 10,000, which was much more than he expected.
When he complained about the high bill, he was threatened and intimidated. This shows the dark side of online dating, where people can be tricked into spending a lot of money.
This kind of scam is becoming more common in India, where men are being tricked by people they meet on dating apps. The man who was scammed shared his story to warn others about the risks of online dating.
