As a senior, how can I date online safely?

Online Dating Safety

When dating online, you must take many additional precautions. When you meet someone online, progress cautiously. Do not divulge any of your critical personal information – this includes addresses, financial information, workplace and home phone number. Before you meet someone in person, speak with him or her on the phone. If they seem overly aggressive, controlling, or angry, then do not agree to a meeting. If you do set up a first date, agree to meet in a public place, and be sure to tell friends and family members when and where you are going. Remember – no matter how reputable a person sounds, if they ask you for money or financial information, immediately cease all contact with them.
