If that new relationship you’re in seems just a little too good to be true, it probably is.
With the rise and rise of cyber dating more and more people are finding suitable partners… but just how suitable are they?
Are they claiming to be a secret agent, or a jet fighter pilot, or even a millionaire? Do you really trust them? Well, a new service in the States has come to your rescue. It’s in the form of a specialist dating detective agency called Datesmart.
The specialist agency has been established for 10 years now and was founded by Carmen Naimish who spotted the niche. He said:
“I look for inconsistencies in a person’s life history, comparing their claims to the findings, whether it’s their age, marital status or the severity of trouble they’ve been in, criminally, financially, or with their prior relationships, if someone lies about one thing, they usually lie about other things.”
The goal at DateSmart is to be pre-emptive. “Daters are more at risk today, especially online daters,” says Naimish. “Being armed with accurate information about an individual can save your heart and your bank account. One of our investigations revealed the man my client was dating had been arrested for burglary two years prior, and he was currently under arrest for soliciting prostitutes. I showed his mug shot to the client, and advised her to have no further contact with him.”
Whether having met on-line or by formal introduction, a crucial concern of DateSmart daters is whether the individual really is who he or she claims to be. “Our clients usually suspect something is not right,” says Naimish. “Their instincts are normally on target. Our investigations turn up unsavory information 80 percent of the time.”
About half of DateSmart clients try do-it-yourself online background checks first before using DateSmart. “They either could not find the answers to their questions or did not understand the results they received,” says Naimish.
