In 2022, nearly 70,000 individuals reported falling victim to romance scams, resulting in financial losses of $1.3 billion. A significant portion (19%) of these scams originated on dating apps.

Tinder plans to enhance its ID verification process by incorporating a video selfie submission and requiring users to provide a valid driver's license or passport for a blue verification checkmark.

However, implementing ID verification raises concerns about privacy, including potential data breaches, misuse, and government surveillance.
