Romance Scam: Wanted Love focuses on security

Wanted Love offers protection against romance scams

The protection of our members is very important to us. That's why you can rely on significantly more security with us than on free dating sites. We attach great importance to protecting our members from the danger of romance scams. Also known as love scamming, this is the modern form of marriage fraud in which fraudsters register on dating portals. They have only one goal: to get the contact details and ultimately the money of their victims.

To do this, the fraudsters pretend to be in love with the members and thus gain their trust. On free dating sites and social media platforms, men and women are at the mercy of the scam. Wanted Love focuses on more security. We make sure that exchanging contact details with us is not that easy. If we suspect fishing, we also block the members concerned.

We rely on verification

With Wanted Love, you are not easily exposed to the risk of a romance scam. We have taken various protective measures to protect you from potential fraudsters. These include, for example, the verification of our members. This is carried out by one of our employees after a paid membership has been taken out. This also means that you can always be sure that all members with whom you exchange messages via our chat are really who they say they are. You can verify yourself via an online webcam selfie photo, or you can speak to one of our experts via video chat. We use your webcam for verification.

How can you recognise a romance scam?

Romance scams are often not that easy to spot, especially if it's the first time you've been affected by one. In general, you should always be cautious if you are showered with declarations of love after just a short time or if arranged meetings are repeatedly cancelled at short notice. You should also be suspicious if you are asked for money during the course of an acquaintance or a chat. Do not exchange bank details, even in return for material favours.
