When doing online dating, you should know that there are alot of con artists out there. There are actually women who will take you for a ride while you think it's love. You have to learn how to be careful with whom you meet, because anything can go wrong. To help you stay safe while doing online dating, I have put together some tips that I think you will find useful. Here's the first tip for remaining safe online.

1) Watch out for Ms. "too good to be true"

Yes, beautiful women are on the online dating sites and if you're not careful, you may mistake her beauty as fools gold. It's easy to believe that a woman is the right person for you just based on how she looks, but to really get a feel of if she's genuine or not, you have to pay attention to the little details.

If there are alot of inconsistencies about her, you will want to analyze her behavior further. For example if she gives you her phone number and she can never talk at night time, you will want to be suspicious of what she's doing at night - even on her days off. Your intuition won't lie to you. Trust your gut, and stay away from women that seem deceitful.

2) Don't list your contact information on your profile

Sometimes when I look at profiles, I see that some women will leave their email address in it. Not only is this against membership rules, but it's an easy way to get alot of scammers to email you. Don't do this with your profile or list your phone number either in it. Instead, take your time and communicate the normal way - through the dating site's email system.

You will want to take your time so that you can ensure that you're getting to know her better before things escalate to higher level. Don't do what alot of women do in their profile. This technique will get you banned and will attract alot of bad women to you.

3) Ask questions

All dating sites don't require a background check to get started, so you will have to do your best to try and find out as much information as you can about a woman. You can start by asking questions. Ask her questions about her lifestyle, past boyfriends, jobs, and even what she likes to do on a daily basis. This will give you a good idea of the kind of woman that you're dealing with and whether or not she's the one for you.

4) Make sure she has a photo

Alot of fraudulent women won't include a photo. They will put the right things on their profile in order to attract a wide variety of men to them. Don't be one of these men. Always go with a woman with a photo because you know how she looks and you will be able to get a good instinct of whether or not you should be dealing with this woman.

All of these tips for remaining safe will help you to have fun with online dating while being cautious at the same time.

Be sure to remain safe today in order to not get the run around with a woman.
