Post Body

So this is more of an informal post more then anything else. I lurked in this board and many other before I finally decided to start making post. During that time I developed a few habits that have helped me home in on what could possibly be scam.

Let's say you come across a R4R post and it has really captured your attention. Naturally you want to get the person on the other end to respond to either your comment or post.

Before you fire off your best pickup line or cheesiest dad joke I would suggest doing a few things first.

 • Look at rhe age of the account posting. if it is less then a week old and only one one post. 🚩

 • Check out the comments of the account. If the only comment is add me on Snapchat <username> 🚩

 • Head over to their profile and look that the post history. If they have posted in several different R4R boards within a small time window then rhat is a 🚩

These are the three most common things I have seen to be associated with scam\catfish accounts. I am sure there is a lot more but i just wanted to get this information out there because i believe that this board hass the ability to become something amazing and there are already some people out there that are bringing some crazy good energy to it.
