After the massive security breach of controversial infidelity dating site, Ashley Madison, a serious concern for the safety and security of many online dating patrons has surfaced.
Anthony Volpe, CMO of highly rated international dating site AmoLatina , is confident that his members are safe and secure with expert, industryleading methods. He shares insight on what online romanceseekers should look for when searching to join or while a member.
- The dating site uses superior antivirus software, such as McAfee and Verisign, or some type of SSL certificate
- Member information is never shared with third parties, including private messages, contacts, and transactions
- There must be a screening process in place to assure the authenticity of the individual signing up to prevent frauds or scams
- There is some refund policy for scam victims
- The site utilizes a customer service hotline available 24/7, 365 days a year
- The site utilizes video chat for live conversation in realtime
- Live private chat without the need to download software or a program
- A phone call capability
- Any interactive gettoknow feature that establishes assurance to it’s members
Also, scammers are always lurking and waiting for someone to bite the apple. Below are some tips to avoid scammers:
- Stay on the website. Scammers will often lure would be victims away from the site to third-party instant messaging services or social media in order to avoid detection by any antiscam algorithms the website may have in place
- Do not reveal sensitive personal information. Fraudsters may attempt to use this information for identitytheft or blackmail
- Stick to paid websites. Investing a little money up front could save digital daters a lot of headaches in the long run. Dating websites that charge their members tend to have measures set in place to prevent them from becoming victims. Reputable sites like AmoLatina.com will clearly outline their antiscam policy.

- The website is a quality experience
- The matches follow your guidelines, criteria and expectations

This was a really helpful post! I haven’t looked into online dating at all while I’m still in college, but if I’m still single in the future then this absolutely might be something that I’ll consider.

I’m so old school- I’m super critical and hesitant of most things online. I just don’t trust the safety of most sites. These are great tips!! I hope people stick to these guidelines and stay safe.
You go girl- I am scared of online dating due to too many horror stories and go the old fashion route… doesn’t always work out well either 😉
Way to be brave to try online dating, i do not know if I could ever do it!!
Love this! I actually was with my ex for 4 months and we met via online dating and now I’m talking to someone that I met on an app!

I am actually in a long term relationship, so this doesn’t apply to me, but I definitely can tell this is a great resource for people who are interested!
I’ve used Tinder before (not now because I’m in a relationship) and it can totally be sketchy. It is really important to be aware of what to look out for.
This was a really interesting post! I have never dated online (I’ve been in the same relationship for almost 9 years), but I love seeing and reading about it! Very important tips!

I’ve never online dated (thankfully I have no need for that)!
I’ve never tried online dating, but these are some amazing tips. I’ve heard from friends who have tried online dating some of their stories some good and some bad. I’ll definitely share this with one of my friends
I’ve never tried online dating, but I’ve always been a little wary. My friends have used a few well-known sites though, and they never felt like their safety was at risk. These are some really great tips. It sounds like AmoLatina really is concerned with the safety of its users, which is definitely a comfort.
I’ve never tried online dating but this post is definitely helpful and important for people that do! Awesome advice
