Staying Safe: How to Spot Red Flags and Avoid Matrimony Scams

Matrimony should feel hopeful and safe. weds.me manually verifies every profile, and these habits add another layer of protection for you and your family.

Watch for these red flags

• Requests for money, gifts or investment — for any reason.
• Reluctance to involve family or to video-call.
• Inconsistent details about age, job, city or marital status.
• Pressure to move off-platform or to rush a decision.

Protect yourself

Keep early conversations on the platform, involve a trusted family member, and verify major claims (workplace, education) before meeting. Never send money to someone you have not met and vetted.
