subject: Online Dating Tips Including Background Checks on Potential Mates [print this page] Online dating has become very popular over the past 10 years. It's a great way to meet new people and maybe connect with that special' someone. But what too many people don't realize is that though online dating is fun, it can be dangerous. You can never know if the person on the other side is really what he/she portrays to be or not. The only way you can be sure is to perform a criminal background check.
The number of people looking for their partners online is increasing, but so is the number of people who are more interested in identity theft, financial scams, and worse. The only way to protect yourself is to perform a check before meeting someone you know very little about. It's the right approach to Internet dating.
Just to have an idea of the hazards/risks of online dating, you can perform a simple test. Create a profile on one of the many free online dating websites. Upload a good picture, not necessarily of you. Fill in interesting information about yourself and basically create a very engaging profile. Once you have successfully created a profile, you will realize that nowhere during the process, you were asked any questions to verify the information you added. The lack of identity verification system is very common on dating sites. Within minutes you will start getting emails from interested members!
Performing an online dating check is very simple. With the advancement in technology, you can perform the background check sitting at home in a matter of minutes. You just need to submit the first name and last name of the person you need to check. The website returns the results of the individual, his/her personal details, education history and criminal records, if any, etc.`
To sum up, it's always better to be safe than sorry. There are many people out there who are honest and are looking for the love of their lives. You can definitely find that person if you take the precautionary steps. In this modern internet world, don't just blindly trust anyone. Be clever and make use of the available resources.
