- Fascinating video: Something weird is happening on Tinder.
- A number of too-good-to-be-true Tinder profiles are "live ID verified."
- That means that the user has done a liveness verification that their face matches what is in the photos.
- But each of them has a random photo at the end that seems almost like a mistake.
- It turns out that the live ID verified matches as long as at least one picture matches the poster's face.
- So that last random picture is designed to be forgettable, an odd thing you don't pay attention to… but is actually the scammer's face.
- Obscured as much as they can get away with while still having the live ID match it.
- If there's enough motivation, the swarm will find a way.
