The dating app SCRUFF shared safety tips on its Instagram to ensure that meetings arranged through the platform are conducted safely and responsibly.
One of the main recommendations is to verify the identity of the user you’re talking to. To do this, SCRUFF suggests using the verified profile feature and conducting video calls before the first meeting.
Additionally, the app advises users to prepare properly for the first meeting. It is important to share your plans and location with a friend or family member, ensuring that someone you trust knows where you will be. SCRUFF also warns about the risks of using substances that alter reality, such as alcohol and drugs, which can compromise personal safety.
The platform also emphasizes that safety should be the priority in all interactions. Being attentive and taking precautions can prevent risky situations and ensure that meetings are positive and safe experiences for all users.
