You already know, or should know, that Tinder is more than just a dating app. And it is that there are not a few cases of scams and scams that occur while some candid soul is looking for the love of his life. But it's not the victim's fault, it's the scammer's. The techniques and hoaxes to defraud users who are looking for a partner in this application are becoming more elaborate and ingenious. It does not matter if it is a bot that someone has created for fun, to spam some other service or tool, or even some scammer to steal your personal data or get you to send them money.Be that as it may there are keys and red flags that you should know to avoid coming across a fake profile and being the victim of a lonely hearts scam. This is how you can tell if a Tinder profile is fake or not.
Watch out for the photos
It is, or should be, the first alarm bell of a fake profile on Tinder. There are usually several patterns. The most blatant is the one in which, directly, there is no profile picture Some users do it to avoid showing their identity, others to attract attention. Would you like a profile without a photo? Think twice. And it is that there are ingenious descriptions that seek to like it, but it can be a red alert about a fake profile or managed by a bot.
Another issue is that the scammer has posted a photo of a particularly attractive person Something that attracts a good number of likes.And, having spread the networks, discard the photo and leave the profile without a photo. Still, a profile without a photo should make you suspicious.
Less brazen, but just as disrespectful, are fake profiles with photos of other people In these cases, if there is a minimum of suspect, the first thing should be to see if all the photos match. As much to see if it is the same person in all of them, as if there is a coherence of quality, style and others. There are usually a lot of selfies in a Tinder profile, and it's easy to tell if they are model photos or amateur photos.
The good thing is that, if there is a photo and there is suspicion, there is always the possibility of performing a reverse image search on Google. It consists of taking a screenshot of one of the profile photos and looking for it on the Internet. If you are on social networks like Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn or other forums or profiles there will be results in sightSo you can "stalk" and investigate if they belong to a real person who could well be on the other side of that profile, or if you have come across a fake profile and a criminal who is using other people's photos. To do this you just have to use this Google search engine and load the image to look for similarities.
By the way, having only one photo on a profile should also trigger your alarms. Either it hides something or it is a fake profile with an image taken from the Internet without the possibility of showing others with the same person.
Attentive and attentive to the descriptions
It is the other key point. There will generally be no descriptions on fake accounts belonging to bots. But it is possible that it is the profile of a scammer that gets a description attractive, funny and funny. Many users tend to opt for funny phrases, so it is a difficult point to discern.You simply have to be attentive to check if the personality of the description and the one that is shown later in the conversation are coherent.
Where you can tell something is wrong is when the description has spelling or grammar mistakes Many of the scams are usually given from countries where they do not speak the local language, so they use translators with little organic and realistic results. Like made by a robot. If so, block and report that profile.
You weren't so lucky, it's a scam
Suddenly, when you haven't matched for days or with matches in which the other person doesn't answer, you get lucky. Fat. A super attractive profile that you never thought would notice you has matched you And not only that, he is also more than willing to talk to you all the time and without waiting .Suspicious, right?
No, you haven't been so lucky. That only happens in the movies. If a super attractive profile shows a lot of interest in you, stop to think and see the possible alerts. It is most likely a scam. It is usually noticeable because they show excessive interest and your profile and theirs do not match in style, qualities, hobbies, etc. It's often the key for Tinder scammers to take advantage of that feeling of luck that comes from hopelessness in this app
The key here is that, by the time you realize it, this person has already offered you a lot of confidence and starts asking for favors. Whether you send him money, send him personal information, etc. Sorry, but that's not what people normally do on Tinder. Most likely, at some point things will get tense and force you to send money.
You answer too quickly
We all like a little attention. And when there is a crush and there is emotion, the desire always prevails due to lack of time. However, you should stop and think if he is replying too quickly. And we're not talking about availability. We're talking about immediacy That is, every time you send a message you get one back almost instantly.
In these cases it is usually an indication that the profile is managed by a bot or a robot That is, an automated program to Launch a series of messages as soon as you type. It is your trigger to fire everything you have already programmed to say. You will generally carry the conversation by not being able to really interact with the content. The good thing is that no robot is effective enough to impersonate a human, so you should realize that it does not answer your questions correctly or that it is not able to carry the thread of the conversation.If he does all this answering instantly, I'm afraid you've found a fake Tinder profile.
Beware of links
If so far your match has passed all your tests and behaves like a "normal" human person, there is still one more barrier to overcome to know that it is not a fake profile. We referring to links and interest in leaving Tinder quickly.
And it is usually the modus operandi of those users who are looking for something other than getting to know you. Rather, they want to steal your data or make you a victim of Spam. Therefore, when you least expect it, and usually somewhat abruptly, it will try to get you to access websites outside of Tinder. Deception can come from many sides: to see more of their photos, to see art that person creates, to see something hilarious... This is how they can send you links to unsafe web pagesor that contain tools to steal your data, for example.
The same is true when looking to chat quickly outside of Tinder, where the conversation and environment are safe Be very careful when giving out the number phone or go to pages to chat or that force you to register with your email account. Most likely, he is looking to get this information and not talk to you.
