Detecting artificially inflated reputation is a major challenge, and even global technology companies like Google face difficulties in controlling this phenomenon.

It is clear that any meeting with a stranger, regardless of their origin, online with an unknown person can be dangerous. It is well known that on dating sites, on Snapchat, Facebook, or any platform, it is imperative to be vigilant. Even with identity verification procedures (KYC) and criminal record checks (as one can never truly know an individual, and identity theft is easy), the risk of theft or violence still persists. Prioritizing personal safety and being aware of the potential risks associated with online meetings with unknown individuals is crucial, and it is always good to emphasize this.
