This Is How I Roll on Facebook Dating: Spot the Scammer Early

I’m sharing this screenshot from #Facebook #Dating because it perfectly captures how I roll when something feels off.

The opening line? Straight out of the scammer playbook.

Generic greeting.

Polite but empty follow-up.

Quick pivot to asking what I do for work.

That sequence is textbook. It’s designed to assess your financial situation, gauge your income, and determine whether you’re a suitable candidate to proceed with the script. No personality. No reference to anything specific on my profile. Just a conveyor belt conversation.

So I responded… my way.

Sometimes humor is the fastest filter. Sometimes, absurdity exposes intent more quickly than caution ever could. And when someone disappears or gets awkward after a response like that, you’ve got your answer.

This isn’t about being rude.

It’s about being aware.

Dating apps are full of real people — but they’re also full of accounts running scripts, angles, and agendas that have nothing to do with connection. If a conversation feels manufactured, rushed, or oddly impersonal, trust that instinct.

Be vigilant, folks.

Your time, attention, and energy are worth protecting.

And yes — this is exactly how I roll.
