Dublin dating

* The girl/guy has not browsed your profile before contacting you. A 'scammer' is not really interested in getting to know who you really are, their intentions may be to take money from you or make you visit other websites which are not provided by adultdate365.
* Their physical appearance in the profile picture is unusually beautiful and exotic. A 'scammer' may use pictures taken by a professional photographer.
* Their profile does not provide much detail about her personality and only contains references to sexual interests. A 'scammer' will try to encourage you to quickly turn your attention away from finding out more about her.
* They may request you to send some money to her for various reasons. Do not send money to other people on the site or outside adultdate365. You will never get your money back and the reasons behind the request are highly likely to be fake.

What can you do?

* Be alert and be wary of members who ask for personal contact details from you too quickly.
* Do not disclose personal details to someone you are not sure of. We are able to detect scammers' activity on the site but we cannot control what happens outside our website; i.e. on MSN or other sites.
* Do not click on links provided by other members. You may be asked to register to a free service which is fake or it is used to attract you into a scammers' scheme.
* Do not share your credit card details with other members. A 'scammer' may ask you to pay for registering to another service and will take money from your account; most of the time the exact amount of the charge will not be made clear to you.
