Summary

Romance scams on dating platforms have become increasingly sophisticated through account takeovers, synthetic and AI-generated identities, coordinated fraud networks, and ban evasion, contributing to £20.5 million in reported UK losses during the first half of 2025. The passage argues that a one-time verified badge is no longer sufficient because account risk can change after onboarding. It recommends a risk-based verification model that uses passive signals such as identity attributes, device data, phone and email intelligence, and age indicators before applying stronger checks like document verification, selfie matching, or liveness detection to higher-risk users. Platforms are also encouraged to connect identity, device, network, and account signals to identify linked fraudulent profiles and repeat offenders, while continuously monitoring login, behavioral, and identity changes to trigger targeted re-authentication or biometric reverification.
