How to Protect Yourself From Hackers on OurTime.com

Like many dating websites today, OurTime.com suffers from fake profiles, scammers, and hackers. But dating sites like OurTime — due to its demographic of users over 50 — is becoming more of a target than ever.

Often, scammers will use real-looking pictures of beautiful women in their 50s in order to lure you into conversation.

Once in, they can use any of the information you give them to guess your password and hack into your account. Or they may quickly try to communicate off-site, where they’ll make an ask for money.

So what can you do to protect yourself?

1. Have a strong password

DO NOT use your birth date, your son or daughter’s birth date, or your address. And you certainly never want to use a variation of the word “password” itself.

The strongest passwords are 10+ characters long and contain a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and other symbols.

2. If something smells fishy, accept that it probably is

Does a woman claim to be American, but she writes in slightly broken English?

Hunches that you have about the authenticity of another user may not be unfounded.

As long as you stay smart, you can enjoy dating without falling victim.
