Catfishing is an unfortunate, but all too real, part of online dating. If you’re an active online dater and you haven’t been catfished, studies say it’s only a matter of time. Around 40% of people on dating apps, like Hinge, report being catfished, with some calling the problem a contributing factor to their dating app fatigue.
Still, if you move to a new city, getting on the apps can be a fun way to meet people. That said, there’s always a chance that these apps connect you to someone with bad intentions.
