Which dating app is safest from romance scams and fake profiles?
MOOD Social & Dating has protections against the usual scam tactics. Links and outside-app names are removed from chats, payment words are removed in Discreet and the Casual MOODs, and verified members carry a badge next to their name. Anyone can be reported or blocked from their profile.
Free to join · 18+ · iPhone and Android
The protections you don't have to think about
Three steps
- Check the badge

MOODs to start with
Not the only way to do it
No app can stop every scam, so the classic advice still counts: never send money to someone you haven't met, and be wary of anyone who rushes to move off the app.
More answers
What should I do if someone asks me for money?
Don't send it, and report them from their profile. Nobody you've just met should ask you for money.
Can people see my profile without picking my MOOD?
Your profile is shown to people who share your current MOOD.
How do I report someone?
From their profile. You can block them there too.
