Tips to use Online Matrimonial Services

There is no limit to profiles when you start your hunt for a life partner on a matrimonial website. Searching in a refined manner will certainly help you expedite your search for the perfect person.

• Look for the profiles that are verified by the matrimonial sites. The sites generally notify on genuine profiles.
• Be honest while putting your filters like career, location, and hobbies to avoid profiles that do not match your interests.
• Choose the right package that meets all your requirements.
• Keep your families informed when you start meeting prospective partners.
• Use security filters to save yourself from cybercrime.
• Do a thorough background check using social media, your network and the matrimonial service you signed up with.
• Block the profiles that pester you.
• If you sense fraud, directly report it to the website.
• Since NRI scams are quite prevalent, beware while dealing with such profiles.
• Refrain from sharing too much information about yourself.

How to ensure safety on Matrimonial Sites?

Matrimonial websites are safe but there is no guarantee for the people registered with them. Providing the details asked by a matrimonial website is an easy task but the frauds begin after that.

• Reports suggest that maximum cases of fraud are conducted by profiles that claim to be living abroad. Sometimes they don’t reveal their citizenship status or jobs, and sometimes marry but leave the person back home and settle abroad.
• Fraudsters generally target the profiles of older people, widows and widowers, who are in a hurry to get settled. Their ultimate aim is to extort money from people by gaining trust.
• In some cases, fraud happens when scamsters build a physical relationship and ghost gullible people after breaking promises of marrying them.
• There are cases of dowry scams as well. Girls sometimes record conversation if any on dowry demand and blackmail the groom side of the family. Whereas, in some cases boys marry girls for money, jewelry, and other valuables and treat the girls badly.
• Watch out for the signs like if a person is too reluctant to show his/ her photos, avoiding meeting in person, asking about your bank details in any which way. Ask a lot of questions about different things to know the mentality and intentions and note the points that you find weird.
