Finding love after 50 should be exciting. Not terrifying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But for thousands of older adults using OurTime, the popular dating platform designed for singles over 50, romance scams have become a serious problem. Scammers know that seniors often have retirement savings, own homes, and may be more trusting than younger users. They target OurTime specifically because of its older demographic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The numbers are alarming. According to the Federal Trade Commission<\/a>, romance scams cost victims $1.14 billion in 2023, with a median loss of $2,000 per person. But some victims lose much more. One OurTime user reportedly lost over $500,000 to a scammer who spent months building trust before asking for money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This isn’t about blaming victims. Scammers are professionals. They know exactly what to say and how to manipulate emotions. But you can protect yourself by learning the warning signs.<\/p>\n\n\n
