Date/able Podcast

From being swindled for money to catching a catfisher, we're chatting with real people in our community to see the prevalence of romance scams like we witnessed with the Tinder Swindler. Spoiler Alert: they are pretty damn common, even years before they've got mainstream press. We're talking to 6 daters: Leesa, Scott, Katie, Chris, Priyanka and Randy along with scam expert Adam Levin. We discuss why even the best of us can fall victim, signs to look out for to avoid a scammer, and how to protect yourself online while still embarking on your quest for love (safely) using dating apps.Learn more about Adam Levin's work at https://adamlevin.com/ and check out his podcast 'What the Hack' and his book Swiped: How to protect yourself in a world full of scammersFollow us @dateablepodcast.
