Can You ‘Hack’ Your Dating App to Get Better Matches?

Dating apps are now as much a part of modern courtship as going to the movies or buying flowers. But dating apps like Tinder, Grindr, or Bumble, present significant privacy risks. You are obviously looking to entice someone and therefore want to create a level of intimacy, but you are speaking with someone you have never met. It requires a delicate dance of revealing enough information about yourself to beguile without sharing too much. And you need to accept information from people on the other end of your conversation, hoping they are acting in good faith. Scammers know this. Beyond scammers, many of these dating apps use the data you give them to target you with ads. When you consider that hundreds of millions of people use dating apps around the world to meet new people, there is a lot of data to be mined.

Hackers have stolen email addresses, direct messages, and other personal data from users of two dating websites, according to a data breach expert. Earlier this week, someone alerted Troy Hunt, the founder and maintainer of the data breach alerting website Have I Been Pwned , that hackers had breached two dating websites, CityJerks and TruckerSucker. The stolen passwords are scrambled with a weak algorithm that could potentially be broken and allow hackers to see the actual passwords. Hunt said that the tipster told him the breach was advertised on a hacking forum. TechCrunch independently verified that the data stolen from CityJerks and TruckerSucker is being advertised on the forum.

Hackers steal emails, private messages from hookup websites

Millions of people around the world use online dating sites and apps. And there are many success stories of people finding love and companionship online. But as well as the successes, there are also online dating scams — and these are on the rise. Online dating scams — also known as romance scams or romance fraud — take place when someone believes they have made a connection or match through an online dating site or app — but the person they are talking to is, in fact, a scammer using a fake profile. The scammer manipulates or grooms the other person to gain their trust over time — ultimately so they can either ask them for money or obtain enough personal information about them to steal their identity.
