Staying aware of scams when dating online could keep you safe. Having gained your trust, criminals play with your emotions and request money urgently. Always meet them in person and check in with your family and friends. #TakeFive

How well do you really know this person? Stop 🛑 and think 🤔. Romance scammers might try to build a relationship with you and convince you to send them money. Never send money to someone you’ve met online. Talk to your friends and family to get a second opinion. #TakeFive

Some online dating profiles can be fake 💔 Criminals try to build relationships and gain people’s trust, then invent reasons for needing money. Never send money to someone you've met online. Always stop and think before sharing your personal information.

Love at first sight! Or is it? When you’re dating online, check out the person, not the profile. Do your research, and always ask plenty of questions to ensure your date is genuine #KeepDatingSafe

Take a moment before clicking on that link! You may get a text that appears to be from a genuine organisation, but it could be a scammer attempting to steal your money or information. If you think you’ve been scammed, contact your bank immediately.

What a bargain… or fraud? 👀 Sometimes, online adverts for goods and services can be part of a purchase scam. Always take a moment to consider whether an online link or website is reliable before buying goods online 💸
