HYDERABAD: Next time you swipe right on a dating app, beware, your money can be siphoned off. City cyber police said fraudsters are honeytrapping men from age group of 18 to 30. Women or men pretending to be women, emotionally trap male victims citing financial problems."In such cases , either on social media or on dating apps, fraudsters target male victims. They first talk to them for several weeks to gain trust. Then they emotionally trap the men, saying they are unable to make rent or pay for treatment of a family member. Once the man sends money to these cons, they stop replying to the victim’s text messages," S Harinath, Rachakonda ACP( cybercrime ).Udit(name changed), 23, an IT professional was conned of Rs 8,000 by a woman he met on the dating app-Tinder."I met Kanika (name changed) through Tinder . We clicked off soon and had amazing conversations. She was very witty. One day, out of the blue, she offered me physical intimacy in exchange of money. I was disturbed by her sudden change in behaviour and asked if something was wrong. She told me her brother was sick and she needs money to admit him into a hospital. Worried, I sent her Rs 8,000. Next day after she didn’t reply to my texts and calls, I realised I have been conned,” said Udit.There are many such cases in the city but most victims avoid filing a case, said cyber cops." We can only help the victims if they file a case. In a recent case, we received a similar complaint from a man who gave away almost Rs 2 lakh after chatting with a woman for over a month. The accused woman said that her father was sick and she had no money for treatment. After he transferred the money, she stopped talking or responding to him,” said ACP cybercrime, Harinath.
