Dating App Dangers – Tinder, Hinge, Bumble
You create a profile on a dating app. A short while later, you receive a few messages.
You start hitting it off with your new friend, who lives nearby. After a few weeks of chatting, you agree to meet up. You head to the meeting location. It’s dark, and the place you’re meeting is kind of deserted.
But you’ve been talking for weeks, so you overlook the dangers.
Then, as you wait for your friend, a group of gang members jumps out from nowhere. They assault and mug you. You’re hurt, confused and angry, and call the police to report what happened.
Eventually, the police trace the assault and robbery back to the dating app. In reality, you were never talking to a real person. Instead, it was a group working together to rob unsuspecting victims. The group creates fake dating profiles in order to scam, assault and victimize people like you.

Victims of Dating App Scams
Dating apps can be dangerous. Even though it may seem like harmless fun or a promising way to find a new flame, the truth is that dating apps have their risks. Unfortunately, you might be a victim of assault and robbery, like the situation described above. Sometimes, sexual assault can occur. Even financial exploitation can victimize someone who uses a dating app.

When Is a Dating App Legally Liable for Harm to One of Their Users?
Here are a few scenarios in which a dating app may be legally liable when one of their users experiences harm:

  
A user creates fake profiles to lure victims. They use the same photo to create multiple profiles. Then, they meet with victims to hurt them. The dating app representatives could have been using image recognition to recognize the fake profiles and send a warning to people who received messages.
  
A group of individuals creates a fake profile to carry out assaults and robberies on unsuspecting victims. They victimize a man. The man reports the assault to the police and the dating app. However, the dating app doesn’t delete the profile or block the IP addresses of the users. The group goes on to commit additional crimes.
  
When a woman uses a dating app, she receives threatening messages from another woman. The woman calls the police and decides to press criminal charges. The offender pleads guilty. Even though the victim tells the dating app about the criminal conviction, the dating app doesn’t take any action to block the user or warn future victims.

When the operators of a dating app do not take reasonable steps to protect their users when they could have, they may be legally liable when a user is victimized.
Dating Apps and the Duty to Warn
Legal liability for dating app violence is a challenging issue. The Communications and Decency Act shields dating apps from liability for what users say and do online. In general, the speech that a third-party posts on a site isn’t attributed to the site owner. In other words, it’s hard to hold a dating app accountable for the actions of their users.
However, there are some circumstances where the owners of a dating app can be liable when someone gets hurt. The dating app may have a duty to warn users when they have actual knowledge of dangers. The duty to warn comes from state negligence laws. The dating app is a business. Because they exist to attract consumers and make a profit, they have a duty to their customers. The duty to warn is a type of legal liability that may exist when the dating app knows that a user poses a danger and fails to take reasonable steps to protect others from harm.
