Safety Centre

Online dating can be a great way to meet new people and find love, but it’s important to take steps to protect your safety. Here are some online dating safety tips recommended by Metfie:
1. Keep personal information private: Be cautious about sharing personal information such as your full name, address, or phone number. Wait until you feel comfortable and confident in your relationship before sharing this type of information.
2. Use a strong and unique password: Create a strong and unique password for your dating account to help protect your information from hackers and scammers.
3. Trust your instincts: If something feels off or uncomfortable, trust your gut and take action to protect yourself. Report any suspicious behavior to the dating site or app.
4. Use the messaging feature: Use the messaging feature provided by the dating site or app to communicate with potential dates. Avoid giving out your personal email address or phone number until you feel comfortable doing so.
5. Video chat before meeting in person: Use video chat to get to know your potential date before meeting in person. This can help you determine if they are who they say they are and if you feel comfortable meeting them.
6. Never send money, especially online transfer, even if the person claims to be in an emergency. Never share information that could be used to access your financial accounts. If another user asks you for money, report it to us immediately.
7. Keep all your conversations on the Metfie app itself while you’re getting to know someone.
8. Report All Suspicious and Offensive Behavior to us. You also have the option of unfriend or block a person.
By taking these steps, you can help protect yourself while enjoying the benefits of online dating. Remember, it’s important to prioritize your safety and take the necessary precautions to protect yourself from potential scams and dangerous situations.
