Finding love should be exciting, not risky. Follow these tips to protect yourself while using Marry Me Juliet and meeting new people.
While we work hard to maintain a safe community, we cannot guarantee the identity or behavior of any user. You are responsible for your own safety when interacting with others, both online and in person. Trust your instincts and prioritize your wellbeing.
Never share your home address, workplace, financial information, or other sensitive details with someone you haven't met in person multiple times. Scammers use personal information for identity theft.
Be wary if someone: refuses to video chat, has inconsistent stories, professes love very quickly, asks for money, or pressures you to move off the platform quickly.
Before meeting in person, have a video call to verify they are who they say they are. If they consistently avoid video calls, that's a red flag.
Keep conversations on Marry Me Juliet until you're comfortable. Scammers often try to move to other platforms quickly to avoid detection.
For your first several dates, meet in busy public places like coffee shops, restaurants, or public parks. Don't meet at your home or theirs.
Always tell a friend or family member where you're going, who you're meeting, and when you expect to be back. Consider sharing your live location.
Drive yourself, use rideshare, or take public transit. Don't rely on your date for transportation, especially early on.
Never leave your drink unattended. If you do, get a new one. Drink responsibly and stay aware of your surroundings.
If something feels wrong, it probably is. Don't feel obligated to stay. It's always okay to leave or end the date early.
Never send money to someone you've met online, no matter how compelling their story. Romance scammers are skilled manipulators who create elaborate stories to steal money.
Scammers often claim: medical emergencies, travel problems, business troubles, or need help with customs fees. These are lies designed to steal your money.
Never share bank account details, credit card numbers, Social Security numbers, or other financial information with matches.
If someone asks for money, report them immediately. You may also report to the FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov.
Call 911 (US) or your local emergency services immediately.
Use our block and report features to protect yourself and others. We take all reports seriously.
If you've been a victim of a crime, save messages and any evidence. This can help law enforcement.
Healthy relationships are built on mutual respect and clear communication.
