Dating Safety Tips & Scammer Protection | Kadhaley

Online Dating & Matrimony Safety Tips

Dating online should be safe and empowering. We implement strict systems to filter fake profiles, but your personal vigilance is key. Memorize these crucial safety rules to protect yourself.

1. Protect Your Finances (The Golden Rule)

❌ NEVER send money or share bank details under any circumstances.

Financial requests are the hallmark of online romance scammers. Anyone asking you for funds, wire transfers, emergency medical expenses, transportation fees, or investment tips (like cryptocurrency schemes) is a fraud. Block and report them immediately.

2. Stay on Kadhaley for Early Chats

Scammers want to move you off Kadhaley to WhatsApp, Telegram, or Line immediately to avoid our automated detection systems. Keep your communication on our safe chat until you trust the person completely.

3. Request a Video Call Early

Catfishing (using fake pictures) is common on paid apps. Kadhaley offers 100% free built-in video calls. Request a quick video call within the first few days of matching. If they refuse, make excuses, or say their camera is broken, cease contact immediately.

4. Plan Safe In-Person Meetings

• Meet in public: Always choose a crowded, public space (cafe, mall, restaurant) for the first few dates. Never go to their home or invite them to yours.
• Arrange your own transit: Don't let your date pick you up or drop you off. Control your own transportation.
• Inform a close contact: Tell a trusted friend or family member exactly where you are going, who you are meeting, and when you expect to return.
• Keep your belongings secure: Never leave your drinks, bags, or phone unattended during a date.
