- The U.S. embassy in Colombia is urging Americans not to use dating apps while in the country after a string of deaths in tourist hotspots. Many criminals are using the sites to lure victims, according to officials.

Lived there for 3 yrs, in the high end area of Bogota ....This report doesn't tell how many Americans are drugged / robbed that goes unreported....Listen to me , Stay out of Colombia ...You are a target as a foreigner ...They can smell you coming ...It's not worth it .....risk vs. reward people !
All propaganda, I hope more men leave the feminazi west.
The real number is 50+ dead last year, I can't believe they took this long to report on it
@@JOEL00111please go and be more body bags 😂
El salvador was a most perfect Christmas new years I ever had thank u bukele
Stop lying so we can get the rest of the passport bros over there
If the date is way out of your league and too good to be true.....it probably is
A us passport gives you a few extra points as a package.
But you wouldnt give such advice to females seeking dates. Stupid misandrist society
@@wl6020 Well this passport bro got deleted for those extra points as a packaged deal in the ground
@@vaderetro1552 women have common sense and are not going to these dangerous places to do this
@@wl6020this is exactly the mentality that gets these bozos killed. What you are describing is called exploitation.
I just have to say that I have been a receptionist in hotels in colombia and people is crazy to get inside their room someone they dont know and be alone with them, it was super common and they even got angry when I told them to give me their ID, and god if they didnt have it I never let them inside and they would go really angry or ask for us to let it slip, I was like "men if you die I would be procecuted" never said it to their face but yeah, I never understood why people go to other country for this, do something else for god sake, there is a lot of other activities
Tell that to your girlfriend and your relationship wont last long...
You should have said that to them, those guys don't know the real dangers.
Well there are plenty of countries where you can actually bring someone you don't know to your room and it's pretty safe. Colombia just has a bunch of greedy murderers unfortunately. This country is definitely not on my visit list (and the dating scams are not even a reason). It's just not safe for tourists no matter the activity you are doing. My views are based on a dozen travel vlogs I watched, so maybe I'm not completely on spot but I don't care, just not worth the risk 🙂
@@uaer309 it's strange how Latin America is becoming more, not less, dangerous with time. I loved Mexico when I visited. No plans to go back now. Ecuador is presently descending into chaos. Brazil hasn't been safe for decades. Venezuela has collapsed. It's like some places will never develop.
@@ampa4989 just corrupt governments in the name of equity destroying all economic mobility which leads people to crime. just a by product of socialism.
Not meeting up with strangers is something you learn as a child and must remember as an adult. STRANGER DANGER.
WOW, talk about bad luck or being in the wrong place simultaneously. I've been to Columbia so many times. I've met so many people and even crashed over strangers' homes, entered their cars or went hiking in some jungle, or linked up with total strangers to show me around. I'm very shocked to hear this news, and I am an American living in California. I suppose it's changed for the worse since Covid. Prayers to the family and victims.
@@DisHappah why would you sleep at strangers' houses?? Plural?😭
@@mazvitaselemani I was young and a party animal. But I'm married now and have kids. I don't party anymore; I'm too busy working and caring for my family. I had a lot of fun and wildlife in my early 20s. I've also done 2 combat tours in Iraq and walked out untouched while many in my platoon got purple hearts. I was a fortunate guy I guess,
Everyone’s a stranger when you meet with them. Just sayin.
@@nosightgaming722not really. If you date a co-worker or a friend of a friend it's different.

Stop going to poorer nations to take advantage of the women. Try that.
Nono, please let natural selection do its job, the world needs it 😅
Why do you think these guys go overseas? They want the attention because they're the losers back at home lol.
Speak for yourself "privelaged" lady
Is it privilege when people work for what they have? Sounds like envy to me.

Don't bring tlc into this nonsense hahahaha
Hahahaha so accurate 😂
They say American women have become men. Anyways I go to Colombia every quarter it’s always been dangerous. Just gotten more aggressive now due to extreme poverty. Btw they rob locals too 😂
Why Americans (or others) are looking 4 love abroad? Nobody wants them ? They believe that woman from another contry or continent is better, easier ? There is srill an ilage of foreigne woman ,poor, who will do everything 4 the guy from US....Like you said- goys,is so many nice girls around, why to risk your life and pur yourself in trouble
That's so sad. It's likely not just 8. May the culprits be brought to justice!
It is Colombia bro, there won’t be justice. That is why preventions is key
How terrifying thinking about that 💔
It’s a country ladened with violent crime. Has been for decades, and nothing will be done. The corruption is top to bottom.
It’s not sad it’s pathetic 😂
It's South America. They don't care, they literally let cartels run their countries. Just don't go there
The price you pay for trying to hook up with strangers...
sometimes you dont pay anything, never done it?
@@robi6317no kidding. Dating online is common in America too. OP is a doofus.
To quote Louis CK, "it's free... if you're smart".
"Meet strangers in a public place" is ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE ADVICE. It will not help you avoid these drugings, I have 1st hand information from individuals here who were drugged. These girls may wait till the 3rd or 4th date or even longer to drug you. They're playing the long game. I'm in Medellin typing this. WATCH OUT, YOU ARE NOT A GENIUS when dealing with people who have months of experience trying and trying again to drug guys.

@DisHappah please be careful. He'd been going to Columbia many times over many months and "dating" the suspect over many months, with many visits, over many months before he was drugged and murdered. It's not bad luck, or being in the wrong place wrong time it's a trajectory.

A lot of the "Passport Bros" go to these countries looking for "low maintenance" non-american women to date, which sounds exploitive in itself. The criminals just saw the opportunity most likely.

Low maintenance? No they're just looking for feminine, cooperative women that are NOT OVERWEIGHT loudmouths like most American women today.

Because they have money obviously @@msunje9862
The problem is that men believe money makes them handsome. Most of them don't even have as much money as they think and they still look just as bad. Sir the woman has eyes. She isn't blind she knows what you look like.😂

Alot of desperate people

@@gangstaberry2496 remember it is a business. More people struggle on dating apps, then meeting people. You still meet people the most through mutual friends and work. Dating apps don't want you to know that...the data doesn't lie
@@gangstaberry2496 exactly!! Me along with my coworkers and friends have met our significant others on pof and tinder. I don’t think you should dismiss dating apps. If there weird or whatever it’s because you’re talking to a weird or damaged person and I ignoring the red flags. Plenty of good decent people use the app but ofc we remember most of the horror stories
And this is why I don't use any dating apps. EVER. I have that little faith in humanity, that little trust.
This is in a third world country, it was passport bros who were killed.

@@DisHappahcovid + inflation + continued gov corruption
Stupid comment
Not really. Just an unsafe country.
Don’t go
This has been going on for years.
A lot of men go to these third world countries in search of love (or at least a fling). The scammers/ predators don’t need an app to find victims. They’re everywhere. Though it’s probably easier for some thief to catfish guys online, using a random pic of an attractive girl to butter them up and find out if he’s loaded.
…nowadays, five-zero is not exactly considered an older person…just sayin’.
Compared to the girl he was"dating"?!
Yeah, I know what they go there for...and karma gets them 👹
Most go for flings.
@Former_Pastor it's all propaganda, because men are leaving western countries and they're getting nervous. Straight men are leaving in record numbers!
I don't know in other latam countries, but here in Colombia we don't have a hook up culture, so the people you find that are open to meet and date complete strangers are probably not looking for something good, 90% of the time I would not trust the intention of those people, even if there are some people open to casual dating, but almost every one meet those dates through common friends, at the University, or some kind of activity groups. Plus, if you come with the passport bro mentality and attitude, 99% of the people who is going to approach you is either very dangerous for your life or just looking to get some money out of you and then moving on to the next one, and the other 1% would stop talking to you as soon as they notice the "passport bro" attitude.
"we don't have a hook up culture" - there definitely is one, but less on overdrive than the one in the USA
There is a hook up culture among young adults
very interesting that you say there's no hookup culture in Colombia, or at least less of one. very surprising indeed. How does one find a date then? a bar?
@@junsu21If you go through Monday-Thursday to the clubs in Medellin, you will only find prostitutes. There is a prostitution culture in Colombia, because although illegal, it is found basically anywhere in Colombia, and specifically in Medellin prostitutes go exclusively during the week. As soon as Friday-Sat-Sunday come, you can go to the club and you can be able to link with a Colombian. AS LONG AS YOU KNOW SOME SPANISH, I must say. If you only know english and expect to have a safe (or authentic) connection with a local just forget about it. You will get scammed probably. Colombians are not interested in Americans like other countries are. They will see you as a catch based entirely on your personality, because if they want your money, they will just take it.
What exactly is a "passport bro" mentality?
Most of South American countries are going through political turmoil. Countries like Ecuador, Colombia, Perú, Venezuela, Argentina you need to be careful when traveling. 🙂
These are passport bros
In fact, narcos are taking over
@@dustybuster78what’s wrong with that?
@@user-sj5ju4jb7t passport bros travel to third world countries where they're "popular" with poor locals which gives them options they don't have in the US/UK. It's creepy desperate dudes taking advantage of poor people.
how is that creepy? Women want men above their status level. If the women in their home country view those men as not high status enough, what’s wrong with going somewhere else where the women deem them desired? How are the women being taken advantage of? Can you explain? I’m a dual citizen, I view it no differently than moving to a new place for a better economic opportunity. But explain how they’re taken advantage of, I’m curious.
My heart goes out to the families of the victims
That’s not going to help

@@saccount-z3 Yes, its same. Many european women go to east asian countries to find a husband. Mostly Japan and Korea, but also China. But the men also come to europe. These married couples are increasing constantly
I've seen the testimonies of the Passport Bros. These wealthy or middle class men are going to South America and The Philippines looking for the women or men of their dreams.
And getting drugged or killed
Philippines is a whole lot safer. No dating apps related killings.
Wealthy is a stretch 😂😂😂
If they were wealthy they’d have enough money to find a woman in America

How desperate do you have to be to go to another country just to have a date?
Maybe they just like foreign people and culture, so many of you people say goofy stuff.
Not sure if you know what they got working in Columbia
Very average girls playing like they're 10s. Lot of useless drama, wokism, 3rd wave feminism ... And Colombia have some super hot chicks .
Extremely 😂
Its because the western woman is typically brainwashed by Feminism to point that they make for bad companions, friends, and citizens. Many men would risk being mutilated overseas than pick from the broken 304s of the west
Why would you go to another country and use a dating app.... People really that desperate for attention and affection?
Look up passport bros. It will answer your questions
it's because they can't get dates in the US and think that foreign women are "easier" and "low-maintenance"
Yes, so many men from the US come here just for s*x. They go to most sketchy places where even Colombians don’t go
Men you mean
@@missandry2669these dudes are finally getting humbled, love to see it
As a Colombian, if I had friends from the USA, believe me, I would tell them not to trust anyone there to start a love relationship or a date, there are women there who know everything, They are very mischievous and interested in money, they are not going to achieve a good love relationship and apart from breaking their hearts, it also breaks their pockets, especially the neighborhood women and/or prostitutes. Perhaps one of the things that in my opinion makes me angry is that people are opportunistic and want to make a living very easily, through deception and lies, I cannot stand. IMHO!
Thank you. Your advice and shout out counts!
All spanish women are turning into con artists is sad what this feminist movement is really doing. There would be no passport bros if women in America were so undesirable
Medellin and Cartagena are a hot spot for gold diggers and murderes, I see gringos often getting along with the barrio girls around the Poblado and is like SERIOUSLY DUDE! You came her and you are fine withe most trashy ladies you can get in this city?
I mean they are there looking for prostitutes, not love
Why are you angry at those women ? They live in country that is collapsing and these men from USA travel there bc they know those women are poor and desperate! Pretending as if these men want love and nice wives while they visit clubs and red light district lol.
May Tou Ger Xiong rest in peace. His legacy as a activist touched so many lives and standing for what is right.
So many Asian men dying in Colombia
Though that may be true, he clearly went there for 🐱. Girls that look like that girl would've never have gone on a date with a guy that looks like him so they go down there to get what they can't get here.
Truly a tragic end... What kind of causes was he involved in? May he rest in peace, indeed.

When I visited last summer there are were so many older guys in the expat Facebook groups bragging their 25 -30 yr old wives. Groups of guys giving "advice" on hooking up with Colombia women in clubs. I'm not surprised this is happening...
Okay- but are not gonna put a little bit of blame on these guys for basically getting on those apps for just 1 night stands in a foreign country they dont live in??
Exactly my thoughts. You go to another country trying to use and discard their women, then they end up using you in the end. I call that Universal karma.
Don’t think the punishment fits the crime. If I hooked up with a stranger in USA or Europe through tinder I would assume that the hookup was consensual and nobody was using anyone.
My fellow brothers traveling to Colombia please do NOT think that by coming to Colombia suddenly makes you irresistible to beautiful woman ESPECIALLY if you cannot speak Spanish it’s hard to build a good honest relationship with a woman if you cannot speak their language! If you do decide to travel here to Medellin and date please watch your drink and DONT use apps like tinder I personally know woman who scam/Rob tourist on that app it’s sad and don’t fall for woman being super friendly it’s a red flag

As a traveler, I will never understand why most Americans seem to turn into idiots as soon as the leave the country. No joke, I've had to save several tourists from dangerous situations that they've put themselves in, both men and women.
I truly don't get it, but people just strut around like the own other countries, and then they get into a lot of trouble, either with the law or with locals.
If you are leaving the country, check the state department website, do your research, and don't just go off with strangers.
Alcohol
Good advice. I think sometimes people travel to other countries with the mindset that every country is so much better and safer than the US, so they let their guard down. Every country has positive and negative aspects, so you have to be vigilant everywhere you go.
It's the same vacation brain people get on cruise ships or when they go to Vegas. They just loose common sense
True, some people do that. But it’s definitely not most Americans. Let’s give a shout out to the many Americans who act smart, responsible and culturally respectful while traveling abroad.
@Yukiwodashite Did it ever occur to you that they act like that just everywhere? Don't tell me there are no idiots in other countries.

100%. The gangs and women are working together makes for a dangerous package. The woman are experts at making everything seem legitimate, while the gangbangers are experts at setting up and executing the crime against the victim.

@@RichBoy-dc2dqWhy are men travelling for women I thought you men were done with American women so why you still chasing women also I am not American I am curious.
Prolly Depends on the country
I mean online dating is dangerous anywhere in the world. You should use extreme caution and take safety precaution. Tell somebody where you’re going, with whom, share a picture of your date and your location with a trusted person. Meet in a public place, and watch your drinks. Honestly if you don’t do things like that, you probably get assaulted or worse in New York or DC too, let alone in a foreign land where you know nobody. Use common sense instead of blaming a nation.
Nothing positive comes from south of the border…
it’s just especially more dangerous in Colombia it seems
These things don't happen in some other tourist destinations: Japan, Dubai, Ireland for example.
Always one of you.
@@Chad_Max at the moment nothing positive is coming from north of border.
The world is a dangerous place especially in the current economic environment where the poor are getting squeezed so hard.
We don't have an alternate world we can run to so we can hide.
Spent 3 months in Medellin 2 years ago. So many passport bros. Even good looking men looking for prostitutes. If you actually want to date and marry a genuine Colombian woman you need to plan to stay there longer, learn language and culture, avoid provenza, and don't go out of your way seeking women who obviously look touched up.

Unreal advice. Most If not all of them looking for a green card
@@kevinmithnick9993 nah genuine people can be found anywhere however I do agree with you for my own self and what I've grown up seeing in the Caribbean community which is why I personally would not risk it. It's just better and safer to date those in similar positions as you.
@@sonderexpeditionsThanks for your comments with many details.
Can you explain please to me more about avoiding "Provenza"?
Its close to Poblado if I remember well. Why in specific Provenza?
Very scary - might be okay to visit family or known friends there - but avoid all strangers
Stop dating in Colombia?! No, stop going altogether. It's not worth your life.
Stop using dating apps in foreign countries and that’s it, I went to Colombia and nothing happened to me
@@dragonballenlatino9090 Same. Was a nice country.
@@dragonballenlatino9090Ok, and a lot of people go to Colombia and something happens to them. Uncle of mine went there a while back and got robbed at gunpoint.
Same could and does happen in pretty much every major American city too minus the kidnapping part.
@@Smiley957sucks for him, but it doesn’t mean it will happen to everyone
There’s hundreds of women in America that are facing the same problem but no one is telling them to be careful, why?
Are you kidding? The cancel and woke culture is very real, men are no longer even approaching women in the US.
Right ! If anyone tells women to be careful it is seen as discrimination guys
You strong and independent, go figure it out
@@revilloteoj1934😂😂😂😂
@@revilloteoj1934you men are strong and logical why do y’all need video warning y’all to use common sense
South America is dangerous for Americans. Why take the risk if you can choose destinations?
stay in your bunker
Go to New Mexico, you’ll be safer there😒
Sadly, even Ecuador has become dangerous like Colombia
South America is a very big area... There are plenty of unsafe areas in the US too
@@PatternRecognitionist what does that even mean
Am I supposed to feel bad for sexpats and PPbros who get unalived for thinking that LatAm is _dating on easy mode._
So dating is suppose to be hard? I'll take my chances overseas.
@@RichBoy-dc2dq Yeap
@@RichBoy-dc2dqdo take the chances, I will see you on news in few months.
@@msunje9862 Why would anyone want an American woman? Y'all don't like men it seem so men will go elsewhere.
@@RichBoy-dc2dqwho said anything about dating American ? There are so many safer counties but y’all keeping going to dangerous ones and being victims. No sympathy
This is so common in South America , Latin America and Mexico , It's really sad what society has become confiding in people is a really hard thing to do nowadays and most of these nations are corrupted the greatest gift our lord Jesus Christ gave us is our intuition plus look at what happened to people like Mark James Kilroy and Kidnapped Americans In Mexico
México is chill asf.
Viva México cabrones! 🇲🇽
@@Ogassochainsaw decapitations less than chill but ok
@@user-rg9xd9mu5r So I guess you would say the same about United States where there occur mass shootings every week.
Yet passport bros have dudes believing in a fantasy 😔
Never heard of cases of killers luring people using dating apps in Chile, Argentina and Uruguay at least
Don’t resist physical harm?!? That was really written? Resist, do not go to a secondary location, give material items and run if you can.
I think they mean don’t fight back during an armed robbery. Just comply and give them what they want. It’s not worth getting shot or stabbed fighting for your wallet/phone
Oh Lord. Instead of dating ? It’s a kidnapping. Kidnap for ransom.
Ya it is Columbia, they have been like that since the 80s. Idk why people would risk their lives there but they can travel to Philippines or other safer countries with beautiful women
Most of them aren’t dating in the first place they’re using the apps to find prostitutes
We were always taught not to talk to strangers when we were kids but now as an adult, you gave to teach adults not to talk to strangers. It’s funny how it’s the opposite now.
How about avoid South America
And America. Actually everyone should avoid Earth. Too dangerous here.
@@simonstevenson6686 100% of all death has happened on earth
especially DATING apps in a foreign country ... its already dangerous enough smh
Matt is racist😅 he will be the first to use a dating app😂😂
ya how about going somewhere where you're not in danger of DYING. I wouldn't go to South Africa either.
I guess trying to find someone to date just ain’t worth it anymore….at least not on dating apps….😢
This is in a third world country, it was passport bros who were killed.
@@dorino9057 whats your point lol
in 1st world countries it is
@@dorino9057 they don't want to make him the face of "passport bros" , that is why they keep using the word " dating " in the video
@@lhistoireenvideo5877 or mb they are actually tourists who wanted some fun? Passport bros go to Europe and Asia
Nope. Let them go. Passport bros please sign up and go. Enjoy.
I can feel the bitterness 😂
@@Tearflavoredcereal nope happily married thank you. But American modern men with pookie tendencies never learn. As a woman from another country. We know how to spot the dumb ones
Passport bros are losing.
I heard about something similar on Instagram from a guy who got drugged but survived this same situation. The guys who like to claim "passport bros" ya'll better be safe out in these type of countries because the grass isn't always greener on the other side.
They won’t be because they don’t listen and think they’re smarter than everyone
My friend got divorced and lost everything he worked hard for.....I'll take my chances in Colombia.
@@RichBoy-dc2dqHopefully your on the news soon
@@missandry2669 Your comment is eviI. You're the perfect example of why men are going overseas.
Yes, western women will take the shirt off your back, but Colombia is just too dangerous. Even Brazil is safer!@@RichBoy-dc2dq
Just get off dating apps altogether ffs..
maybe people should just like, not go to the kidnapping capitol of the world 😐
Thank you for the segment.
Yeah, I have NEVER felt comfortable meeting someone off of a dating site. Like you never know who is on the other end of the messages. No thank you. And then on top of that you’re gonna do this in a foreign country????
Im constantly amazed at the naivete( i hate to say stupid) of some people that take these risks despite existing info about these tragedies already known. I just dont get it.
Yep. Especially when each case can almost be tied to a dating app. I'm in an expat group and can't believe there are still people who defend using Tinder as a great way to meet someone in a foreign country.
they thinking with the head below the waist. Judge Judy gets it. Watch her and she'll teach you.
No....let the passport bros keep at it😂😂
Someone is salty 😂😂😂😂
@Tearflavoredcereal really? As I'm in a happy marriage? Awe you tried tho....just loud and wrong
@@successfulMillennial doesn’t sound like it 🤷🏻♂️
@Tearflavoredcereal I didn't ask what you think I sound like. Take your L and go bro..
Passport bros dying .
Good.
Men risking their lives for 🐱. 😂
my heart goes out to his family ❤ this is scary..
Can't trust anyone at all
so negative
Rip passport bros. That foreign pootang is dangerous.
As Colombian living in tampa Florida- I always tell young people
To be careful where you go an d with whom - if you know a Colombian friend here in USA 🇺🇸 and you know the person well
Is better to go there with that person- don’t trust people online that you can’t perceive who they are and what is their intentions
Be safe my fellow Americans 🙏🏻
How about just avoiding Columbia all together?
Ya I never had a desire to go to a third world country
Colombia is amazing. Safer than the US that's for sure. I go multiple times a year as a solo female.
@@mogulmadethis person is a scammer murderer for sure.
No one will listen to this. Men have been warned about this in Colombia for years but they believe it can't happen to them. I started going to Colombia when people warned me it was dangerous and I acknowledged the risk. These guys who go now are in denial of it.
They are too egotistical and self centered to accept it can happen to them. They only learn the hard way so let them
Passport bros these streets aren’t as sweet as you think they are in these foreign countries. RIP
Some people think girls in the US are ran through, so they go overseas to find Colombian or Venezuelan chicks; those girls are just as ran through if not more and have way more experience; People in South America know this - it is a totally different world out there.
Ya those columbian girls are harsh ran thru. I always noticed in high school they’re the ones who are always teen moms too
I went to Colombia recently. I’m a woman. I could not get over the prostitution in the streets. Like I literally was in shock. The women show their wares, for all to see and it is like a meat market.
Why are you referring to women like they’re usable objects?
PP Bros are scared
That’s how they presented themselves. They were prostitutes though so I guess that’s the point.
Love Colombia. Had the best two months there, nothing happened to me, but I did exercise many precautions. If you’re not willing to take lots of precautions the place will be dangerous for you.
You should post a quick Dos and Don'ts for all the passportbros....I know most of it is basic common sense but still might help...
Wow I guess that’s it for the passport bros.
Looks like all those passport bros are going to learn how to be good partners now as opposed to trying to find a disadvantaged woman in an economically disadvantaged country.
No the problem is coming to our south america they should just go to Thailand
You just go to a different country, I don't know why this is a shock to anyone Colombia has had one of if not the highest murder rates for decades
good partner to who? Western women?🥲
You're a FOOOL if you're using Colombia to judge their movement. Colombia along with Mexico have always been dangerous countries with high murder rates and police corruption. The fella just went to the wrong country, should have gone to his country of origin. Maybe Colombia is a lot convenient and closer to fly to and fro
@@rteddydaciusno one said it had to be western but going to any country and using hooking at red light distract is not how you will meet your wife
passport Bros taking an L 😢
Big L
Ever American man who travel is a passport bro????
@@RichBoy-dc2dqyes. That’s their logic. And usually it’s towards black men so I’m confused why they’re calling this a passport bro when he’s Asian.
You can’t be too desperate on the apps if it looks too good to be true trust me it’s bc it is.
If you are a 3 or a 4 and can’t snag anything at your own level or slightly above say a 5 max, don’t go to another country and believe an 9 or 10 is just going to all of sudden want to go out with you!
You tell’em, dork!
@@blackout07blue He's not lying the real dork is the guy who thinks he can get a 10 outside the country but can't get a 10 in his country, I thought Tate taught you guys this?
@@Solotv84 hahahaahhaa thanks for this. Their self-esteem is impressive
dont blame dating apps as much as just that travel to these more remote countries has just become more dangerous than 10+ years ago. this is just yet another new way they've figured out how to lure and find victims.
The dating apps are a big part of it because these men are using them to solicit prostitutes. That’s the part the news keeps leaving out
100% personal responsibility.
Sure miss those days where ppl just approach one another in real life. Regardless of the country, dating apps can be dangerous 😢
I mean, you could equally get murdered by someone you meet in a bar.
not "equally" no. you cannot. there is something humans have called intuition
you can tell when a situation or person or place is "bad news". something dating apps completely bypasses. you can only pick up these cues nonverbally and in real life.
@@angelika87 your intuition is naturally flawed in a foreign country. Guessing or feeling vibes is not going to cut it. You need a lot more than that. In your native country though, yes.
@@independenceradio sure but intuition is one of the things that are needed and at dating apps people can pretend to be anyone they want, so it's easier to be fooled
@@Juuxr Both have pros cons. In person, you have less time to think and react. Peer pressure is easier. On an app, you have way more time to think and react, and vet the person (requesting social media, friends, etc).
It's best to have a trusted local accompany you, whether random in person or a dating app. They know everything we can't see or know. When I traveled, I was with locals
I was thinking of going solo. I will no longer make the trip. This is sad and scary
Passport Bros are in for a rude awakening, lol.
Passport bros really put their viewers in danger for cheaper 🐱
