Protecting Yourself From A Romance Scam.
 

Author: Alan Prince
1. Never give out personal details to the person you are chatting with. Remember that you just met, and are getting to know each other better.

Keep such important personal details such as your home phone numbers,work addresses,credit cards and bank account details from your new friend.

These are the details that scammers are always in a hurry to get from you.

It's not unusual for a chatter,who is a scammer to insist on having your phone number right away so that he or she can call you.

Once you give out your phone numbers, then be prepared to receive lots of calls from the person.
The fellow would do all he/she can to impress you and warm up to your heart with their constant phone calls.

Also, do not give out other details that are personal to you or any of your family members.

2. Use reputable dating sites.Don't use free ones,as scammers tend to shy away from paid ones.
Remember that most scammers come from regions where the poverty level is high, and credit cards are not readily available.

Therefore, you should sign up with paid dating sites, to ensure a greater level of security for you.

Some of the paid dating sites have been actively weeding out scammers from their site in recent time.

They have assumed more responsibility to protect those people who are paying for their services.

But all the same, you need to be careful on the paid ones too.Some categories of scammers can easily pay their way on a dating site and also use the services there. So, it pays to be on your guard at all times.

3. Look for someone in your local area.This is still the best form of dating.Most people I know who were scammed in recent time, eventually got to date someone in their area.
Some are married already.

Don't live under the impression that you can't find true love in your localty. You surely can. You only need to look very well in order to find a person.

You may also consider a person in your state, or another region of your country. The chances are that a date that you meet in person is less likely to be a scammer.

Even if there is a shortage of eligible men or women around you, you might just look around in a town next to yours.

So, rather than looking for a person abroad when next you are searching for a date on the internet, you could just search for a person in your area.
