Dating safely

Before you meet

  • Keep chatting on Swoonia until you trust someone — don’t rush to other apps.
  • Never send money or share financial info. This is the #1 scam tactic.
  • Be wary of anyone who refuses to video chat or always has an excuse.

Meeting in person

  • Meet in a public place and arrange your own transport.
  • Tell a friend where you’ll be and when you expect to be back.
  • Stay sober enough to keep your wits about you; watch your drink.
  • Trust your gut — it’s always okay to leave.
