Spotting a romance scam.
Romance scammers target people of every age, and they are often patient and charming. The warning signs tend to be the same:
- They ask for money, gift cards or bank details, often for an emergency, a medical bill, travel costs or a business problem.
- They want to leave the site quickly and move to WhatsApp, text or email. We'll warn you if someone tries this.
- They can't meet or video call, and there's always a reason why not.
- Things move very fast, with declarations of love within days.
- Their story doesn't add up: details change, or their photos look like a model's.
The golden rule: never send money or share bank details with someone you've met online, however long you've been talking. If in doubt, stop, report and talk to someone you trust.
Meeting for the first time.
- Have a video call first, so you know the person is who they say they are.
- Meet in a busy public place, such as a café, garden centre or pub at lunchtime.
- Arrange your own way there and back.
- Tell a friend or family member where you're going and who you're meeting, and check in afterwards.
- Keep personal details such as your home address to yourself until you know someone well.
- Trust your instincts. It's always fine to leave early.

Safety questions
How do I report someone?
Use the report button from within the site, or contact our support team 24/7 by phone or live chat. Complaints are resolved within five business days, and content confirmed as harmful or illegal is removed straight away.
Is every member verified?
No. Verification is optional, so not every profile has a badge. Members can verify by ID (a blue tick), a live video check or profile validation.
Will other members see where I live?
No. Your location appears only as your nearest town or city, and your real name and email address are never shown publicly.
Someone has asked me for money. What should I do?
Don't send it, however convincing the story. Stop replying, report the profile from within the site, and contact our support team. Asking for money is one of the clearest signs of a romance scam.
Can I block someone?
Yes, instantly. Once you block someone they can no longer contact you or see your profile.
