Congressional Report Exposes Tinder's Stale AI and Massive Scam Exposure
A new report from the U.S. Senate Joint Economic Committee reveals that Match Group’s dating apps, particularly Tinder, failed to update their AI scam-detection models for years. This negligence allowed nearly 1.5 million fraudulent accounts to match with users in the U.S. in 2025. While Match Group has since implemented mandatory facial verification, critics argue the response was too slow, leaving victims financially devastated.
