Investment Scammers Prey on Dating App Users, Interpol Warns

Users of dating apps like Tinder, Match and Bumble should be on the lookout for investment-fraud scammers. Cybercriminals are taking advantage of a surge in dating app users with a sophisticated fraud scheme. They convince victims to download an app, purporting to be a trading app, and open an account. The apps then show earnings/profits within a short timeframe, making victims believe they have made the right decisions and are trading successfully. They are made to believe they can reach gold or VIP status, said Interpol.
