Has anyone else besides me ever gotten a scam dating email?

    At least once/day ... but they automatically go to my TRASH folder, so I don't normally see them (unless I'm checking the trash folder for a "lost" email).

    When I was with yahoo. they were pretty good at catching them but a few sneaked through. I have received none since I switched to gmail.

    I get them weekly at least, most end up in the Junk Bucket.  That said a few slip through and get deleted.  NBD  - There are weeks I do playing wack a mole

    I use gmail and a very secure operating system.

    A few got through back in the old Experience Project days.
    They got short shrift.

    Have never had any problem with them here.

    Have never joined any online dating site.

    My online profile is not enticing - deliberately.

    In general, at 62 I'm too old to be interesting or attractive to online cruisers - and I take that to be a blessing.

    Sex and romance scammers are a real risk.
    If you meet one it's a good idea to pass their contact details to police.
    They don't just target one person. They fish on an industrial scale.
    The damage they do to vulnerable people can be serious and tragic.
    By dobbing, there's a good chance that you will save not just yourself but many.
