Romance scam checker

Is your online partner real?

Romance and "pig-butchering" scams take life savings from kind, smart people every day. Answer honestly — nothing is stored — and check their photos below.

About them

You met online — dating app, social media, a game or a "wrong number" text
They always have a reason not to video call or meet
They said "I love you" or talked about marriage within weeks
They work abroad: military, oil rig, ship, doctor with an NGO, engineer on contract
They asked for money, gift cards or help paying a fee, ticket, customs or hospital bill
They suggested investing together in crypto, forex or a trading app
They moved the chat to WhatsApp, Telegram, Google Chat or Signal quickly
They asked you to keep the relationship or the money secret
Their story has gaps — photos look like a model, details change, grammar does not fit their background
They want to send you a parcel, money or gold "for safekeeping"

Reverse-search their photos

Scammers steal photos of models, soldiers and doctors. Save a profile photo, then upload it to:

If the same face appears under other names, it is a scam.
