The most important rule: Never send money, financial information, gift cards, cryptocurrency, or expensive gifts to someone you have not met and do not completely trust.
Recognize common warning signs
- Professing intense love unusually quickly
- Avoiding video calls or repeatedly making excuses not to meet
- Stories that change or details that do not add up
- Pressure to move conversations away from SparkMingle immediately
- Requests for money because of an emergency, travel problem, medical issue, or business trouble
Protect your personal information
Keep early conversations inside SparkMingle. Do not share your home address, workplace, passwords, banking details, identification documents, or other sensitive information before genuine trust has developed.
Meet carefully
Meet for the first time in a public place. Arrange your own transportation, tell someone you trust where you are going, keep your phone available, and leave if anything feels wrong.
Use your instincts and our tools
If a person makes you uncomfortable, stop communicating. Members can use SparkMingle’s Block User and Report User options. Provide an accurate explanation and any relevant information so the concern can be reviewed.
True love is built on trust and honesty—not transactions.
