Fake Profiles on Blendr

 Blendr is a dating app and works like any other app with Geo-location algorithm. If you have ever tried one of those, you know how this one works.

The biggest problem of online dating are the scammers. Wherever there are people that are interested in dating or hookup, there will be others that will try to scam them and take their money for nothing. This is how fake profiles are created, to begin with.

Fake Profiles on BlendrAs with every other popular app, Blendr has become the target for the cunning spammers but its defense system is pretty good.  The chances to encounter a fake profile on Blendr are pretty low since the developers do everything possible to ensure that behind every profile there is a real person that is looking for a potential partner.

In any case, you always need to be careful to whom you give your info to. In general, the scammers will try to redirect you to another site where you will have to pay in some way. So, if someone sends you a link that redirects you somewhere else than Blendr itself, just report him to the admins.

Usually, the spammers will try to talk to you at first and convince you that their intentions are pure. Remember that every real person in Blendr has no need to send you to any other site. You can simply exchange personal info within the app if you feel comfortable with each other.

Another type of scam is the guys that will try to take your money by asking for certain favors. For example, he/she will try to convince you that he/she is really interested in you but some financial problems prohibit him/her from meeting you in person. Well, you would be simply stupid if you accept to send him/her the money he/she is asking for. Nonetheless, some unsuspecting people might still fall for that.

Remember that the best defender of your wallet is you. If you are very careful with whom you share your information with, you will have very little chances of being scammed.
