美国国会联合经济委员会发布调查报告,曝光了Match Group旗下多个交友应用平台上的浪漫诈骗问题规模。1根据调查,2025年第三季度,Tinder和Hinge平台上近150万个诈骗账户与至少一名用户匹配,其中近50万个账户已与受害者交换了联系信息。1美国浪漫诈骗每年至少造成13亿美元的经济损失。1
一位名叫玛丽的受害者通过加密货币向诈骗者支付了约10万美元。1参议员玛姬·哈桑表示,这类诈骗"在财务和情感上都是毁灭性的"。1报告指出,Tinder多年未更新大多数机器学习模型,导致风险防控能力薄弱。1
针对这些问题,Match Group已推出面部识别验证功能和新的AI检测模型。1然而议员认为这些改善措施来得太晚。1哈桑与共和党参议员里克·斯科特在6月提出了立法建议,拟建立中央举报门户来应对此类诈骗。1
A joint investigation by the US Congressional Joint Economic Committee has exposed the scale of romance fraud plaguing major dating platforms operated by Match Group.1 The report details how nearly 1.5 million fraudulent accounts matched with users on Tinder and Hinge during the third quarter of 2025, with approximately 500,000 of those accounts exchanging contact information with victims.1
The financial impact of these scams is staggering. Romance fraud costs Americans at least $1.3 billion annually, according to the committee's findings.1 One victim, Mary, lost approximately $100,000 through cryptocurrency payments to scammers she met on Plenty of Fish.1 Senator Maggie Hassan described the scams as "devastating both financially and emotionally," highlighting the dual harm inflicted on those targeted.1
The investigation revealed that Tinder had failed to update most of its machine learning models over an extended period, leaving the platform vulnerable to fraudulent activity.1 In response, Match Group has implemented facial recognition verification features and deployed new AI detection models to combat the problem.1 However, lawmakers have criticized these protective measures for arriving too late.1 Senator Hassan and Republican Senator Rick Scott introduced legislative proposals in June to establish a centralized reporting portal for these scams.1
