KEEPING SAFE ON A DATE

In the interest of keeping you safe and really aware while dating, especially internet dating, I really want to share an experience with you that was shared with me today. The lovely lady who shared it with me got off very lightly.

After dating someone she met on the internet they decided to move to the next level and become more intimate. After a lovely romantic dinner they checked into a hotel for the night. He paid for the evening and she paid for breakfast. It was fun, romantic and the future looked good.

A little later that day she received a call from Credit Card Fraud Protection to say that her credit card had been cloned. She left her credit cards in her bag while she took a shower. Her Date had access to all the details.

Her date called her a little later asking her to pay half the hotel bill. Please note that he posed as a London Barrister, declaring how very financially stable he was, in the process of buying an exclusive property (when she checked on him it was clear that this property had already been sold to someone else).

If you are looking for your life partner it is vital that you make sure he ticks the boxes of your top requirements before you let him into your intimate space. I am hoping that HONESTY is top of your list :)

Along with some very genuine, caring, kind, honest men with great integrity, the internet dating world is plagued with fraudsters, con-artists and men who cannot be trusted. You need to be aware and keep your guard up. Listen to your gut feeling and watch out for RED FLAGS.

There is no way that you can be sure of who someone is and what their values are after only 1 month.

Safety is your primary concern and building a successful relationship follows that.

Wishing you success in finding love

Love
Shelley
