Arizona has always been a place for big skies, bold sunsets, and adventurous spirits. But lately? It’s also become a playground for online dating scammers. Yep, our sunny state is topping the charts when it comes to fake profiles, romance hustles, and smooth-talking “suitors” who are more interested in your wallet than your heart.

Why Arizona? Well, scammers see opportunity in a state full of transplants, retirees, and open-hearted singles who actually want to connect. And instead of enjoying a happy hour in Scottsdale or a sunset hike in Sedona, too many Arizonans are finding themselves tangled up with love-bombing liars or “long-distance lovers” who mysteriously need money for plane tickets.

But don’t let the scammers kill your vibe. With a little know-how, you can swipe, flirt, and date without losing a dime (or your dignity). We’ve pulled together a no-nonsense guide on how to stay safe while dating online—check it out here before you message your next maybe-soulmate.
