Tinder: Recognize fake profiles - all important criteria

Recognize fake profiles at Tinder: How to make online dating safe
So that the fun of dating at Tinder is not slowed down by a wrong profile, here are the most important criteria with which you can identify a fake profile:
- Online status: Even the most active Tinder user has to take a break. However, if your Tinder match always says "Active before 0 minutes", you should become suspicious.
- Description text: You should take a closer look at the description text for your match. If too many special characters are used here, this indicates a fake.
- Pictures: You should also take a closer look at the pictures. Many fake profiles have multiple images, but they only look similar at first glance.
- Intrusive news: The first night promises the hot night - really? Unfortunately no, because it is often necessary to register on another page for the "meeting".
- With a simple trick you can find out if your match is a fake.
Tinder: Check match for fake
- Take a screenshot (iOS / Android) of the profile picture of your Tinder match.
- Upload this to your computer, for example via USB, or send the picture to yourself by email.
- Then open Google Image Search on your PC.
- Upload the image of your match on Google Images using the photo symbol in the search line and start the search.
- You can now see where this image has been used everywhere. If there are too many results, you can be sure that it is a fake.
