Guide is in green because I was afraid of causing text invisibility on dark or light mode btw
This method is unethical. Don’t give up your dream life just to avoid making some people uncomfortable, people who don’t even care about you. If you are on here then you probably aren’t satisfied with your life right now. DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. And if you like trolling people, this method will actually be fun to do.
Thread OST:
Preface
I successfully ran this method for about a year and then moved on, as this one eventually became boring and I found more profitable methods. EVERYTHING in this guide has been tried and tested by me. I’m not the type of guy to give advice on something I haven’t done myself (unlike a lot of people on here). I did not use ChatGPT or AI in any way to make this guide. This is all written by me and coming straight from my experience.
If you only read parts of the guide before trying the method, don’t be surprised when it doesn’t work for you.
If you don’t care about safety, you can also skip the parts in written in blue.
If you want to talk in private then message me on Discord or Telegram. If you can’t reach me on Discord then my account may have gotten banned. Try Telegram. Discord & Telegram: EscapistNMA
You may be wondering why I’m bothering to share all this. Here is why:
- I want to give back to a forum that has helped me a lot (just from lurking, this is not an alt!)
- I want to encourage discussion and innovation on the topic
Introduction
Women on dating apps get a literal infinite amount of attention. Based on my own testing, a 6/10 (slightly above average) woman receives 99+ likes within the first 20 minutes of account creation, and over 10 THOUSAND likes on Tinder within 2 weeks.
Everyone knows the old method. Getting men to directly send money by pretending to be a female on dating apps like Tinder, or other social media. The scammer often claimed they needed money for food, rent, gas, or some other product. Men have largely caught on to this so this method is no longer efficient.
Heres what absolutely NO ONE has caught on to yet, making a fake activity/event with an online store owned by YOU, and convincing guys to take you (the female) there on a date. The online store will sell tickets to the fake activity/event, and they will buy the tickets ahead of time to secure a spot. You later leave them and keep the money.
With access to over 10,000 guys every week, you can quickly see how you could make 12k+ monthly with this method. If you scam just 5 guys a day, and sell tickets for 35$ each, convincing the guy to buy your ticket as well (more on this later), you can make an easy $10k in one month, and that is just the start. With multiple accounts and expansion to other dating apps, the potential is even greater.
For the dating app I cover mostly Tinder in this guide since its the best for this method but the info also applies to other dating apps like Bumble and Hinge.
Crime Level: Medium
Risk Level: Very low
If you take the necessary precautions then it will be virtually impossible for you to be caught in the unlikely event of an investigation. In addition, the chances of someone figuring out the method, then reporting you to the police, then the police giving a shit is quite low.
Of course there is still a risk. I will do my best to teach you how to stay safe, but no criminal is truly uncatchable. The point is to make catching you not worth the effort.
Why this method won’t become oversaturated
The sad truth is that most guys who come across this guide won’t have the balls or dedication to put in the work and actually follow it. They will cope their way out of it. If you are serious about ascending and succeeding then this method will surely work well for you, even if its now public.
This guide covers the following in chronological order:
1. Tinder/Dating apps
2. Instagram & Snapchat
3. How to chat with guys
4. Fake store setup
5. Cashing out
Lets begin
Why iPhone is best for Tinder
You will want an iPhone to create the Tinder. iPhone is better for this rather than a Samsung because iPhones are more popular with girls and are harder to spoof with, so Tinder somewhat has its guard down for iPhones. This means that you have a much higher probability of succeeding in creating a long lasting account with no shadowban. If you bought a used iPhone make sure to reset it before downloading Tinder. Apple also takes privacy more seriously than Android manufacturers so Tinder sees reset iPhones as completely new devices, but it may be able to recognize an Android if was used for Tinder before. A Samsung could still work though if you can’t get an iPhone.
Do NOT use a computer or an Android virtual machine for Tinder, they will get detected and shadowbanned by Tinder 100% of the time. So forget about Nox and LDPlayer. No girl has ever signed up to Tinder using a computer, and Tinder knows this. Do not do anything that a real girl signing up/using Tinder wouldn’t do. Tinder has data on millions of girls and if you do something out of the ordinary, you will stick out and get flagged.
Getting the phones, sims, and data plans safely
If you use your personal phone for this method then it will be easy to trace you. You need a phone that isn’t connected to you in any way on paper.
This should be obvious but make sure to ONLY use cash or prepaid cards when buying things in person for this method. If a store does not accept cash, leave and come back another day with a prepaid debit card (purchased with cash).
When buying the equipment, its best to wear something that covers your face somewhat but not to the point where you look suspicious, like a cap and/or sunglasses (use something else for winter). Its best to leave your house in one set of clothes, and then change into a different outfit in a secluded location before entering the store. Change back into your normal clothes before returning to your home. Changing clothes is likely overkill though so only do it if you want to be extra safe cause its super fucking annoying.
Some stores will require personal info like an email, full name, zip code, and home address to buy phones, sims, and data plans, so get those ready ahead of time. Make up a name and find a random address near the store on google maps. In my experience they don’t verify the email so you can give a fake one aswell. Do not choose an apartment as your fake address because you will have to guess the room number and they can have weird room number formats.
Faraday bags are small special bags that block all signals between the inside of the bag and the outside world. Without a faraday bag, cell towers will constantly pick up signals from your phone even if its off , giving away you and the phone’s location, therefore it is critical that the phones you use for this method are kept in faraday bags whenever not in use to avoid your movements being tracked. iPhones need this, not sure about Samsungs but might aswell be safe.
You can buy them for cheap online. Always make sure the bag is legit by testing it with a phone call and then some sort of internet test like a Discord call. Neither call should work while the phone is in the bag obviously. The bags from the brand “Hodufy” worked well based on my testing.
Make sure you bring your faraday bag with you, so that when you buy the phone(s) you can put it in the bag and safely bring it home. If you bring home the phone(s) without it being inside the faraday bag, that phone could be associated with your house in an investigation. NEVER let the phones leave the faraday bag while in your house. Only use the phones in an area at least a 20 minute walk from your house, the further the better.
Do NOT bring your personal phone with you when you go to the store, even if its off. Unless its in a faraday bag it can probably be tracked.
You can also leave a YouTube video or something open at your computer at home which would help make it appear that you were home during that time, but this is overkill.
Preparing for Tinder
Get a new phone, new sim and a prepaid data plan. Try to get the prepaid plan from a company that has a parent company that does non-prepaid data plans. The one that does prepaid plans usually uses the same network as the parent company, meaning that Tinder will think that you have a non prepaid plan when signing up, increasing your accounts trust score. The higher your trust score, the harder it is to get banned.
When you get the iPhone, actually set it up like a real person would: add some (fake) contacts, enable siri, add a background, take some pictures, create an Apple account (you will need an Apple account anyway when signing up for Tinder). I’m not sure if setting up the things besides the Apple account makes a difference when creating the Tinder, but it doesn’t hurt. You have to assume Tinder can see everything. Install Snapchat and Instagram aswell.
Find a nearby college and optionally a job ahead of time that you will add when creating your Tinder account.
How to get photo verified on Tinder
Option 1: GF or Female friend
Simply tell them you want to catfish guys on Tinder and offer to pay them (if necessary) in order to do the face verification and give you some pictures. If you think they will say no, you can try using the tactics from option 2 on them. If they still say no, you can move on to option 2 or 3.
Option 2: Low inhib method
Go outside and convince girls to do the face verification. What worked for me was convincing them that I’m working on a face verification app for a computer science project for my university and offering to pay them $20. Depending on your phone and Tinder app version, the Tinder icon may show on the bottom of the screen during the verification. (It showed up for me on iPhones but not on Androids) If it does, cover the logo with your hand or a piece of non translucent tape and claim that there is a sensor there that you need to obscure or else it will mess up the face scan.
Waiting outside colleges or highschools and approaching girls as they come out worked best for me, since the girls there are young and dumb. I only saw success convincing women under 22. Highschools are better because the girls are less likely to have an existing Tinder account, which could ruin the profile setup if she gives you pictures that she already used for her Tinder.
Ask them for 4-6 pictures in different locations first and then make the profile on the iPhone after receiving the pictures to the iCloud email you made on the phone. Then you will get them to do the face verification.
Option 3: The solo methods
These ways don’t require any extra people and let you use any girl’s face you want. If you think very long and hard like I did (plus MONTHS of testing), you might be able to figure some out yourself but if you don’t want to waste your time you can message me to purchase them because I don’t want them becoming too well known or it can mess with my other scams.
Making the Tinder
When creating the account select some interests and put any bio you want but make sure its something a real girl would put. I don’t recommend putting your Snapchat or Instagram in the bio, it will lower your account trust score.
If you are not using option 3 for verifying the Tinder, just try to sign up as close to a house as possible. Do NOT sign up at a library or other public space.
Tinder trusts accounts more if they were created inside a house. They determine this based on your GPS coordinates. There are ways to spoof your GPS but they have their own issues so I never used them.
When I discovered option 3 I started going up to to random houses and leaned against them while creating the accounts. This makes Tinder think you are signing up from inside a house because GPS can be inaccurate up to a few meters. Of course try to find a house where you can get up close to the wall without getting caught.
Do not install or open Tinder unless you are ready to do the photo verification in the same session. If you try to create an account and then close the app when it asks you to do photo verification, you may be shadowbanned.
Do not reuse ANYTHING when making the Tinder. Every account should have its own phone (new or reset), number, sim card, Apple account (email). If Tinder can recognize any of these from a previous account or even an account creation attempt, you will probably get banned or shadowbanned instantly.
If the phone number you have was used for Tinder before in the past by someone else theres a chance that Tinder will mess with your account or account creation even if you did everything right. It might stop you from making an account or shadowban you. In that case reset your phone, get a new sim, and try again with a new number.
Using the Tinder
I suggest you leave the account for 24 to 48 hours after creation. Don’t open Tinder during that time. This lets you rack up likes before you start swiping, which I believe helps your account elo and increases your trust score.
Once you open Tinder after waiting, start with 3-10 swipes daily with 30-50% of them being right swipes (where you give the guy a like), and add 3-10 more swipes onto that number every day, until you reach 50-100 swipes per day. I personally don’t go over 50 swipes because I want to keep the accounts as safe as possible but you could probably get away with 100 if you distribute the swipes throughout the day. Don’t do exactly 50 or 100 swipes obviously, or you will look like a bot. Deviate the number within 5 swipes.
You will start getting matches and you can start talking to the guys immediately, but let them message you first always. Now just talk to them like a normal girl.
I don’t recommend buying the Tinder Gold subscription because for free you already get way more men than you can handle. Girls don’t typically by Gold either so it will lower your trust score. Only buy it if you live in a poor country and need to use the passport mode to scam guys in developed countries. This will make you seem a bit more suspicious to guys if they notice you are using passport mode, since girls don’t usually use it. If you need Tinder Gold, make sure you only buy it with gift cards, or else Tinder will see that you aren’t a real girl because of the name on the card.
For Bumble its different, buying the subscription won’t hurt your account (still, use a gift card). You will need the subscription if you want the Bumble account to be as effective as Free Tinder, or else its not even worth using. Bumble tries to only show you guys who haven’t liked you when you are swiping normally so its hard to get a lot of matches even if you received a shit ton of likes without the subscription.
Tips
- Avoid swiping right on guys that wouldn’t have a chance with your fake girl. Aim for guys that are around 4-6 out of 10 on the looks scale as they will be the easiest to scam. If the guy is too ugly he will be suspicious that he matched with a decent looking girl. This assumes your girl is 5-6 out of 10. If your girl is ugly then you can swipe right on subhumans.
- Don’t swipe right on guys that are too far away. If they are more than an hour away then they are too far. Sometimes the distance that Tinder shows you is completely off but you should still follow this rule.
- Don’t swipe right on guys who seem too broke, like some 18 year old college kid who has no car. If they have a job listed on their profile, a car in their pictures, or are over 25, they are good to swipe right on.
- Don’t spend too much more time on Tinder than a real girl would. When I was a beginner I used to spend 8 hours a day on Tinder which I suspect contributed to my first account getting banned after only 3 weeks. After that I started doing only 1-3 hours in the evening plus 1-3 weekend morning hours. Combining this with the other strategies I mentioned in this guide, I never got another account banned again.
- Most of the time, look through the guys profile before swiping, including their pictures and interests. This makes you seem more genuine to Tinder. Only swipe without looking through the profile once or twice for every ten swipes.
- Don’t swipe too fast. Spend around 5 to 10 seconds on every profile before swiping left or right. This obviously makes you seem more legit.
Dealing with Tinder bans
Tinder bans suck but they aren’t the end of the world. Reset your iPhone and follow the guide again. Figure out where you went wrong and don’t make the same mistake again. If you did this on Android you may need to buy a new phone, not sure. Make sure you don’t reuse the same pictures for Tinder and also don’t sign up or use the app from the same location as before.
Instagram/Snapchat explanation and tutorial
On Tinder, about 50% of the time the guy will ask for your SnapChat, 25% of the time your number, and 25% of the time your Instagram. This will change depending on the age of your girl, but I mostly used girls aged 22-18 because they get the most attention.
On SnapChat, guys will “snap” with you back and fourth. A “snap” is a photo that must be taken live (at that exact moment) with your phone’s actual camera. This is almost impossible to fake on mobile. On PC its easy but snapchat shows that you’re on PC, which ruins everything because why would a real girl use a laptop to snap her friends? It raises men’s guard significantly. Emulators/virtual machines are outdated and don’t work either.
If you want this method to work efficiently, its critical to be able to send real looking snaps on Snapchat, because every normal girl sends snaps. Theres been many ways to fake snaps in the past on mobile but they always get removed because the Snapchat developers actively seek out these methods and remove them. I’m one of the only people on this planet who knows how to send fake snaps on mobile that look completely indistuingishable from real snaps in 2025.
You can “snap” them using the glitch that allows you to upload whatever image you want and make it looks 100% like a real “snap”. This instantly convinces them that you are real, and lowers their guard to pretty much zero, especially since they saw that you were also photo verified on Tinder.
Pretty much every girl has Snapchat, so if you don’t have the fake snap method when a guy asks for your Snapchat you will be forced to convince them to take either your number or your Instagram instead, which will be suspicious. Your chances of scamming them after that are lower.
Any time such a glitch is posted on the internet, Snapchat works fast to fix it so I will not post it here. You can get it from me for a price because unserious people need to be filtered out or they will just get the glitch removed. If you need proof that I have the glitch, feel free to send me any picture you want and I will send it back as a snap on mobile. Don't send it on here though obviously. Message me on Discord or Telegram.
“But what images am I going to snap them with?” More on that later.
Setting up the Snapchat
Create the account and choose a username with only letters. No numbers or special characters/symbols. This is so that it will not be as obvious to Tinder when you share your username. This is important because Tinder may shadowban you if it thinks you are promoting your Snapchat or Instagram too much, which you will inevitably be doing if you are talking to ten guys at once. For example, if your fake girl is named Rachel O’pry, have the user name be something like “rachelopryyy”, do not use anything like “rachel_opry2005”.
Snap score is a number associated with your account which shows how many pictures you have sent and received on Snapchat. Your Snapchat account(s) will need to have a snap score over 100k to seem legit. Ive tried lower snap scores but most guys get suspicious immediately.
The slow way to get a high snap score account is to create a fresh one and spam your entire friends list using the multi snap tool. The more friends you have added, the more score you will get. To get friends there are Discord servers where people add eachother for the sole purpose of snap score farming. You can join those, or you can add random people and spam them at night before they block you when they wake up. Farming it yourself could take a few weeks though which is quite a waste of time.
The quick way is to buy Snapchat accounts with high snap score. In my experience, they typically get banned within 2 weeks unless you buy from a good source. My old source isn’t around anymore but at the time I bought a shit ton of backup accounts which are still good to this day. If you’re interested message me.
A lot of guys use Snapchat like a dating app on its own so you can scam a decent amount of guys that randomly try to add you (wannabe slayers). If you do this, DO NOT accept any friend requests from accounts that seem Indian or foreign. They are from mumbai and this will completely fuck your profile visibility because it will show you to more oversea Indians instead of people in your area.
Setting up the Instagram
Like with Snapchat, choose a username with only letters. Look at profiles of real girls for profile inspiration on what to write for your bio (profile description). An aged Instagram (old join date) will be best because what girl hasn’t been on Instagram since elementary school? You can try to find aged accounts online but its quite hard to find a legit seller. I have a few that I can sell, so message me if you are interested.
If you can’t get an aged Instagram account you can either skip guys who ask for your Instagram and take a hit to your efficiency or try to make a new one but if you do that then expect a lot of suspicious guys. Don’t bother trying to convince a guy who asked for your Instagram to take your Snap or number instead. They will almost certainly be too suspicious to scam at that point.
You’re going to want 200-1000+ real or real-looking followers, which is pretty easy to get if you are patient. I don’t recommend botting/buying followers because usually they seem fake and theres a chance your account gets a scam warning put on it by Instagram, meaning any guy who tries to follow you will get a warning to beware of scams. That would be an absolute death sentence for your Instagram account.
You can get followers simply by posting good pictures. When you get followers, follow them back and then follow people from their followers list, they will usually follow you back. Then later unfollow enough people so that you have more followers then you are following. To avoid getting flagged, I never followed more than 20 accounts per day. Theres also other strategies for getting followers which you can research on your own, this is just what worked for me.
Like Snapchat, a lot of guys use Instagram like a dating app on its own so you can scam a decent amount of guys from Instagram alone who find you and slide in your Dms.
How to get pictures for Snapchat and Instagram
The quick way:
You need pictures that are not reverse image searchable. Originally I went on social Discord servers and stole pictures from the selfies channel. These pictures are usually not reverse image searchable but double check every picture you download. Make sure the girl’s body and hair is somewhat consistent in the pictures you steal. Then I used a program called Facefusion to face swap a face of my choice onto all the pictures then cleaned them up with Photoshop. The problem is if too many people do this then the pictures will actually become reverse image searchable, so you can use the quick way to start out but try to move on eventually to the better way explained below:
The good way:
Eventually I started generating all my photos with AI because finding consistent pictures became a hassle. With the proper setup, you can achieve complete photorealism.
Don’t use an online service to do this, they are mostly shit. Instead download ComfyUI and find a model + LoRa combo that generates realistic looking girls. I used the BigLoveXL2.5 model with the DM D2 SDXL LoRa and Subtle Candidness 3 LoRa but theres probably better stuff out there now. You can find them on a site called civit.ai. Its pretty easy to set up with a YouTube tutorial. Just make sure you use the exact settings recommended for the model and LoRa that you use or else the images you generate will look off. Getting the image generator AI to consistently generate the exact face you want is a pain in the ass so I just used Facefusion to swap the face of my preferred girl onto the AI generated photos.
If your computer is complete ass then you will have to use an online service to generate the images. I recommend renting a virtual GPU and running ComfyUI on there.
How to chat with guys
Make basic conversation when you start talking. usually guys ask questions, you should answer them and ask something back (usually you can just ask them the same thing they asked you).
let him try to shift the conversation to the topic of a first date, until he does that, just continue basic conversation. Only shift the conversation yourself if its been days and he still has not offered to take you out. When the time comes, bring up your fake event/location, making it clear that you want to go there for a first date.
If he already has a date idea without asking you what you want to do, say something like “we could” and then ask if he likes something related to your fake spot (the guy will usually say yes), then offer to go there instead. This almost always works. If he doesn’t immediately agree you can beg him a bit. If hes not budging, block him and move on. Don’t waste your time.
Try not to mention your fake spot by name while on Tinder, always say “theres a place that does X” or “theres a few places that do X, [Name] is a good one” If one of your accounts gets banned, the name of your spot might become a word that triggers bans or shadowbans. If the guy is asking for the exact name of the place and you haven’t moved off Tinder yet then just say you forgot and have to ask your friend the name.
Eventually the guy will ask to move off of Tinder and you will agree. At this point you can freely name your fake spot when the guy asks the name of the place you are going together. After he looks at it, get him to buy the tickets. The way you do this depends on what kind of fake spot you created. For example, if you made a fake concert or festival, then just ask him to buy the tickets immediately for you both in case they sell out.
Offer to pay him back for your ticket later when you get some money if he doesn’t initially want to buy both. This usually works. If not, don’t force it. If he doesn’t budge you can say you will try to convince your parents to buy your ticket.
If your fake spot does not seem 100% legit, unmatch the guy before you name the spot. Unmatching a guy makes it way harder for him to report your account and get it banned if they figure you out. If Tinder finds your account suspicious at all, it only takes a few reports to get banned. Also unmatch immediately if a guy starts getting too suspicious, like asking to call, facetime, etc.
Chatting tips
- Keeping track of dozens of guys at the same time is quite challenging, especially when starting out. If you try to keep it all in your head you’re going to slip up eventually. Instead make notes or a spreadsheet with entries for each guy you move off Tinder with. Track the following things for each guy:
- NEVER send any links on Tinder, even if you have good reason to. It lowers your account trust score.
- If the guys profile says hes looking for something short-term (it either says long term or short term on the profiles) act like you might be down to hook up after the date by asking him if he has his own place and playing along if he invites you to come over after the date. This will increase your chances of scamming him since hes blinded by the idea of a first date hookup.
- You want to seem interested but not desperate. Originally I tried acting uninterested to try and get guys to pursue me more and make myself seem less suspicious but the guys just lost interest. Acting like you have options but also like you want to get to know them worked best for me.
- If talking on Snapchat, always half swipe to read messages first. That way you have time to think of an answer and it doesn’t seem like you are trying to figure out what to say next as much. If you don’t know what half swiping is just search it up. And don’t half swipe if the guy has Snapchat premium since they can see it. (only retards buy that btw)
- If you fail to scam a guy, always analyze exactly what went wrong, and make sure it doesn’t happen again. When I was a noob, it only took one guy to say my spot looked too sketchy since it wasn’t on Google Maps. After that I spent weeks creating and perfecting a Google Maps listing, which I will teach you how to do.
- Some guys you just won’t be able to scam no matter what. Don’t let it get to you, move on.
- Train your voice to sound like a female. It can come in handy if a guy is a little suspicious and wants to do a voice call. Theres plenty of tutorials on YouTube. You can also try using a voice changer but the first guy I tried it on realized instantly. I never perfected my female voice so usually I had to end up blocking guys if they really wanted to call, losing a sale. That doesn’t have to be you.
- To increase profits, you can try convincing him to go on a double date. Show him a fake hot friend and get his buddy to buy 2 more tickets/bookings. This tip works best if you are already scamming with multiple girls on multiple phones, since you will have the social media accounts to really make it seem like your friend is real.
- If you are sending pictures on iMessage or SMS, screenshot the picture and then send the screenshot instead. This way if a guy decides to save the picture and check the date/time, it will show up as if the picture was just taken.
After he buys
First of all, make sure he actually bought the tickets. Sometimes the guy says he did but I check the store and he actually didn’t. There can be many reasons for this, maybe he forgot, maybe he plans to do it later but just wants to appease you for now. Try to subtly remind them later without making it obvious that you can see whether they actually bought the tickets or not. Pretend you’re just making sure he got them or you that forgot.
In rare cases, a guy never ends up purchasing the tickets after he says he did, even after pestering him. The reason for this is still a mystery to me because they continue behaving as if they think you are real. If this happens then end things with him with the strategy explained below, don’t keep bringing the tickets up or else he might actually figure out whats going on.
Once you confirm the tickets were bought then you’re going to have to break things off somehow without him figuring out what just happened (because if they do then they may try to file a chargeback or a police report). My favorite way to do this was asking them if they are more left wing or right wing, and then acting mad no matter what they answer, then block them. This strategy saves them from thinking too hard about what just happened. They just think you’re a crazy bitch.
Only snapchat makes it obvious when you get blocked, so if you are talking to the guy on iMessage, SMS, or Instagram, make sure you tell them that they are blocked aswell so they don’t keep trying to message you.
Always end things with the guy on the same day that you were supposed to go on the date. That way he won’t have time to plan a date with another girl and try to actually go to your fake location to make use of his tickets.
Making the fake store
You will need to hide your personal IP address when creating the fake store, so that it can’t be easily traced back to you.
For the browser I recommend use the LibreWolf browser with a private window. “Antidetect” browsers have their own issues and LibreWolf works just as well if not better.
Linux is more secure than Windows for this but I know most of you won’t switch just for this, so atleast disable as much Windows telemetry (spying) as you can. Theres many tutorials on YouTube on disabling it.
If you have a laptop then use a hotspot with the data plan you bought for this method away from your house.
If you have a desktop you will have to use a VPN + residential/mobile proxy. If you don’t know what a proxy is then Google it please.
Use Mullvad VPN and any residential proxy (with a low fraud score). Mullvad is the only VPN you should use for this. They literally got raided and the police got nothing, because Mullvad doesn’t keep logs. Any other VPN service will instantly fold to the police and leak all your data to them upon request (yes including Proton).
Have Mullvad running on an operating system level, and then attach the proxy at the browser level. There are brower extensions let you route your browser connection through your proxy. This way Mullvad will be a barrier between you and the proxy (otherwise the proxy owners can see your real IP). You need the proxy as a barrier between your store builder site and Mullvad because Mullvad IPs all have a high fraud score and will get your store flagged otherwise. I would recommend an extension but the one I use doesn't seem to be available anymore on the extension store, so just find one with decent reviews and give it a try. You can use the site dnsleaktest.com to see how your connection/IP appears to websites.
Use prepaid debit cards to buy the store builder platform subscription and anything else mentioned. You can buy them online with crypto or IRL with cash. I don’t think the online service I used is available anymore either but you can find providers on the website kycnot.me. Obviously hide your IP when doing this aswell.
The type of business you choose to fake will have to be one where paying beforehand to buy tickets or make a booking is plausible. Fun and active date activities work best. Here are some business ideas to get you started: festival, concert, petting farm, boat rides, mini golf, pottery, skating.
I used Shopify for my fake stores. You can also try Stripe if you want to code the website yourself or Wix, but I cannot comment on them because I never used them.
The biggest obstacle for me with the store was getting a bank account to connect to the store. If you care about staying safe and avoiding taxes you are going to need a bank account thats not connected to you in any way on paper. Originally I tried buying accounts on the dark web but they either didn’t work or got banned rather quickly. And don’t bother using the bank account creation guides that have recently popped up here… they are copy pasted from old dark web forums and are outdated as hell.
I ended up convincing multiple people that I was a real business owner but Shopify didn’t support my country (this is actually a thing), so I needed them to connect their bank to my Shopify. They would keep 5% of profit for doing basically nothing, and then send me the rest in crypto. If you try this then don’t work with anyone from a shithole country. They will propably try to scam you. I ended up working with people from the Netherlands and Germany, who I found on job forums/Discords.
A different scam I’m running nowadays lets me create legit bank and crypto accounts so if you don’t want to go through the headache of finding a bank mule or acount then hit me up I can sell some accounts.
Once you have a bank account to connect to the store, the rest is pretty straightforward. Watch a tutorial on store setup for whatever platform you used. Add your fake products to the site. Use the following tips to make your store effective and look legit:
- Have multiple products, even if no ones supposed to buy them (Store themed merch for example).
- Buy an aged domain (4+ years old). This helps but isn’t required.
- Most of you probably won’t buy an aged domain because they can be expensive, so use Namecheap.com if you’re going to get a fresh domain. They are cheap, don’t flag accounts, and offer a free business email
- Find legit stores that sell similar services and copy them (but don’t copy 1 for 1)
- Set up a business email which you will add to your site (will be @website.com instead of @gmail.com)
- Add a refund policy to your site which states you can only get a refund if you cancel at least 72 hours prior, this will usually prevent guys from trying to get a refund.
Setting up Google Maps
Its essential to get your fake business on Google Maps. Guys expect to be able to find your spot on there easily. If they can’t find it there it immediately raises red flags. Things like concerts or festivals get a pass though, they don’t need to be on Google maps since they constantly change locations.
Its pretty easy to get on Google maps (for now). Watch a YouTube tutorial if unsure how. Create a new Google account on your new phone and let it sit for atleast a week before trying to make the listing. Make sure you choose a location that is actually near you, or else Google may ask for verification and that may slow down or completely stall the process.
Once your business is on Google Maps, you will want to add pictures of your business. What I did was travel to a similar business that isn’t too popular, take some pictures, and then remove any of their branding with Photoshop. I also horizontally flipped the image and slightly changed the hue to further obscure its origin. It doesn’t have to look perfect, just good enough to not raise suspicion at a glance.
You could try using existing pictures from the internet but I never did because I was afraid of getting flagged or reverse image searched. I also avoided using AI to generate the images because I was paranoid of invisible watermarks in the image.
You will also need reviews to make the Google Maps listing look legit. 20 is an okay amount but the more the better. I don’t recommend buying reviews online. They might look fake and/or get your listing flagged or taken down.
What I did for the reviews was paying random people outside 5$ to give me 4 or 5 stars. They can’t all be 5 stars or else it will look suspicious. I targeted young males because women and older people got sketched out a lot more. For every 20 young guys I asked, only one said no usually. Aim for 1-5 reviews per day, anything more would probably flag your listing while its still new. The best places to find guys to ask would be near highschools and in malls past whatever time highschools end in your area.
I would tell them I was working for an upcoming business and respectfully asked them if I could pay them 5$ for a rating. For 1 out of every 3-4 ratings you should ask a guy to write a review instead of just giving you a rating. Prepare a review for him to write ahead of time.
How to cash out
Shopify automatically deposits your earnings every 2-4 days (Except first deposit which takes 1 week) to the linked bank account. You will then purchase Litecoin (LTC) on a crypto exchange, and send it to a non custodial wallet. A non custodial wallet is a crypto wallet which you have complete ownership of. Any crypto left in an exchange is basically owned by the exchange still. They can freeze or sieze your funds as they please, so get your crypto out of there ASAP. I use the Electrum LTC wallet. You can also use Bitcoin (BTC) instead of LTC but I never did because BTC is way slower.
For the crypto exchange platform it depends on your country but I suggest you stay away from CoinBase. They are very paranoid and will use any excuse possible to freeze or delay your transactions. I recommend having accounts on multiple exchanges to get around the withdraw or deposit limits if they exist on your exchange. Extra accounts also come in handy if one gets frozen or banned. You can also try peer to peer trading to skip the exchanges entirely but I haven’t done it so I can’t comment.
Once you have your LTC, swap it for Monero (XMR), and then swap it back for LTC. XMR is a privacy coin that is virtually impossible to trace, unlike BTC and LTC which have all their transactions public. Then you need to swap it back to LTC because XMR works so well that its banned by most exchanges, so you won’t be able to directly sell XMR for Fiat (normal money) and will have to use a swap service to obtain it. I used Wizardswap.pw to do the swapping but do your own research on swap sites to avoid getting scammed because these swap sites can switch up on you. Kycnot.me is a good site to find trustworthy services.
When you swap it back for LTC you are basically erasing any connection you had to the illegally obtained LTC. Make sure that you get the clean LTC sent to a completely different clean LTC wallet, or else you will have to restart because that LTC is now associated with your dirty wallet.
After that, its safe to send LTC to your personal crypto exchange account tied to your real identity. Now you can do whatever you want with it, like trading it for Fiat. Unless you are making millions, no one really looks into or cares how you got the crypto so the cleaning method described here will be enough.
Crypto Tips
- Never swap over $1000 worth of crypto per transaction on swap sites. The larger the amount, the more likely that they will sieze it. I even recommend staying below $500. Every time a swap site siezes crypto under the excuse that it might have been obtained illegally, they lose reputation. They wont risk reputation for a measly $500 but it might be worth it for them if you try to swap $10,000 at once (this actually happened to someone swapping 10k worth of ETH at once)
- Don't deposit large amounts of money at once into your crypto exchange either. $1000 per day should be the maximum per account.
- If you want to avoid paying taxes on most of your earnings, keep most of the value in XMR and only swap a certain amount to clean LTC when you want to buy something. That way you only pay tax on what you spend, not earn.
Safety tips
- Only take the burner phones out of the faraday cages if you are a 20+ minutes walk away from your home.
- Find a private spot in a residential area a few KM away from your home where you can sit and use the phones. If you have a car it will help a lot, but increases risk slightly due to your license plate. Try not to sit right in front of someones house because they may call the police or confront you. The side or behind of a house works best, especially if they have some sort of tall fence.
- Do not bring your personal phone with you when you do this method, or else it may be associated with your burner phones due to the frequent close proximity. This is because phones constantly ping cell towers, giving away their location.
- Do not tell people IRL that you are doing this method. It will be hard not to because it is very exciting at first, but it can only harm you in the long run.

This method is unethical. Don’t give up your dream life just to avoid making some people uncomfortable, people who don’t even care about you. If you are on here then you probably aren’t satisfied with your life right now. DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. And if you like trolling people, this method will actually be fun to do.
Thread OST:
Preface
I successfully ran this method for about a year and then moved on, as this one eventually became boring and I found more profitable methods. EVERYTHING in this guide has been tried and tested by me. I’m not the type of guy to give advice on something I haven’t done myself (unlike a lot of people on here). I did not use ChatGPT or AI in any way to make this guide. This is all written by me and coming straight from my experience.
If you only read parts of the guide before trying the method, don’t be surprised when it doesn’t work for you.
If you don’t care about safety, you can also skip the parts in written in blue.
If you want to talk in private then message me on Discord or Telegram. If you can’t reach me on Discord then my account may have gotten banned. Try Telegram. Discord & Telegram: EscapistNMA
You may be wondering why I’m bothering to share all this. Here is why:
- I want to give back to a forum that has helped me a lot (just from lurking, this is not an alt!)
- I want to encourage discussion and innovation on the topic
Introduction
Women on dating apps get a literal infinite amount of attention. Based on my own testing, a 6/10 (slightly above average) woman receives 99+ likes within the first 20 minutes of account creation, and over 10 THOUSAND likes on Tinder within 2 weeks.
Everyone knows the old method. Getting men to directly send money by pretending to be a female on dating apps like Tinder, or other social media. The scammer often claimed they needed money for food, rent, gas, or some other product. Men have largely caught on to this so this method is no longer efficient.
Heres what absolutely NO ONE has caught on to yet, making a fake activity/event with an online store owned by YOU, and convincing guys to take you (the female) there on a date. The online store will sell tickets to the fake activity/event, and they will buy the tickets ahead of time to secure a spot. You later leave them and keep the money.
With access to over 10,000 guys every week, you can quickly see how you could make 12k+ monthly with this method. If you scam just 5 guys a day, and sell tickets for 35$ each, convincing the guy to buy your ticket as well (more on this later), you can make an easy $10k in one month, and that is just the start. With multiple accounts and expansion to other dating apps, the potential is even greater.
For the dating app I cover mostly Tinder in this guide since its the best for this method but the info also applies to other dating apps like Bumble and Hinge.
Crime Level: Medium
Risk Level: Very low
If you take the necessary precautions then it will be virtually impossible for you to be caught in the unlikely event of an investigation. In addition, the chances of someone figuring out the method, then reporting you to the police, then the police giving a shit is quite low.
Of course there is still a risk. I will do my best to teach you how to stay safe, but no criminal is truly uncatchable. The point is to make catching you not worth the effort.
Why this method won’t become oversaturated
The sad truth is that most guys who come across this guide won’t have the balls or dedication to put in the work and actually follow it. They will cope their way out of it. If you are serious about ascending and succeeding then this method will surely work well for you, even if its now public.
This guide covers the following in chronological order:
1. Tinder/Dating apps
2. Instagram & Snapchat
3. How to chat with guys
4. Fake store setup
5. Cashing out
Lets begin
Why iPhone is best for Tinder
You will want an iPhone to create the Tinder. iPhone is better for this rather than a Samsung because iPhones are more popular with girls and are harder to spoof with, so Tinder somewhat has its guard down for iPhones. This means that you have a much higher probability of succeeding in creating a long lasting account with no shadowban. If you bought a used iPhone make sure to reset it before downloading Tinder. Apple also takes privacy more seriously than Android manufacturers so Tinder sees reset iPhones as completely new devices, but it may be able to recognize an Android if was used for Tinder before. A Samsung could still work though if you can’t get an iPhone.
Do NOT use a computer or an Android virtual machine for Tinder, they will get detected and shadowbanned by Tinder 100% of the time. So forget about Nox and LDPlayer. No girl has ever signed up to Tinder using a computer, and Tinder knows this. Do not do anything that a real girl signing up/using Tinder wouldn’t do. Tinder has data on millions of girls and if you do something out of the ordinary, you will stick out and get flagged.
Getting the phones, sims, and data plans safely
If you use your personal phone for this method then it will be easy to trace you. You need a phone that isn’t connected to you in any way on paper.
This should be obvious but make sure to ONLY use cash or prepaid cards when buying things in person for this method. If a store does not accept cash, leave and come back another day with a prepaid debit card (purchased with cash).
When buying the equipment, its best to wear something that covers your face somewhat but not to the point where you look suspicious, like a cap and/or sunglasses (use something else for winter). Its best to leave your house in one set of clothes, and then change into a different outfit in a secluded location before entering the store. Change back into your normal clothes before returning to your home. Changing clothes is likely overkill though so only do it if you want to be extra safe cause its super fucking annoying.
Some stores will require personal info like an email, full name, zip code, and home address to buy phones, sims, and data plans, so get those ready ahead of time. Make up a name and find a random address near the store on google maps. In my experience they don’t verify the email so you can give a fake one aswell. Do not choose an apartment as your fake address because you will have to guess the room number and they can have weird room number formats.
Faraday bags are small special bags that block all signals between the inside of the bag and the outside world. Without a faraday bag, cell towers will constantly pick up signals from your phone even if its off , giving away you and the phone’s location, therefore it is critical that the phones you use for this method are kept in faraday bags whenever not in use to avoid your movements being tracked. iPhones need this, not sure about Samsungs but might aswell be safe.
You can buy them for cheap online. Always make sure the bag is legit by testing it with a phone call and then some sort of internet test like a Discord call. Neither call should work while the phone is in the bag obviously. The bags from the brand “Hodufy” worked well based on my testing.
Make sure you bring your faraday bag with you, so that when you buy the phone(s) you can put it in the bag and safely bring it home. If you bring home the phone(s) without it being inside the faraday bag, that phone could be associated with your house in an investigation. NEVER let the phones leave the faraday bag while in your house. Only use the phones in an area at least a 20 minute walk from your house, the further the better.
Do NOT bring your personal phone with you when you go to the store, even if its off. Unless its in a faraday bag it can probably be tracked.
You can also leave a YouTube video or something open at your computer at home which would help make it appear that you were home during that time, but this is overkill.
Preparing for Tinder
Get a new phone, new sim and a prepaid data plan. Try to get the prepaid plan from a company that has a parent company that does non-prepaid data plans. The one that does prepaid plans usually uses the same network as the parent company, meaning that Tinder will think that you have a non prepaid plan when signing up, increasing your accounts trust score. The higher your trust score, the harder it is to get banned.
When you get the iPhone, actually set it up like a real person would: add some (fake) contacts, enable siri, add a background, take some pictures, create an Apple account (you will need an Apple account anyway when signing up for Tinder). I’m not sure if setting up the things besides the Apple account makes a difference when creating the Tinder, but it doesn’t hurt. You have to assume Tinder can see everything. Install Snapchat and Instagram aswell.
Find a nearby college and optionally a job ahead of time that you will add when creating your Tinder account.
How to get photo verified on Tinder
Option 1: GF or Female friend
Simply tell them you want to catfish guys on Tinder and offer to pay them (if necessary) in order to do the face verification and give you some pictures. If you think they will say no, you can try using the tactics from option 2 on them. If they still say no, you can move on to option 2 or 3.
Option 2: Low inhib method
Go outside and convince girls to do the face verification. What worked for me was convincing them that I’m working on a face verification app for a computer science project for my university and offering to pay them $20. Depending on your phone and Tinder app version, the Tinder icon may show on the bottom of the screen during the verification. (It showed up for me on iPhones but not on Androids) If it does, cover the logo with your hand or a piece of non translucent tape and claim that there is a sensor there that you need to obscure or else it will mess up the face scan.
Waiting outside colleges or highschools and approaching girls as they come out worked best for me, since the girls there are young and dumb. I only saw success convincing women under 22. Highschools are better because the girls are less likely to have an existing Tinder account, which could ruin the profile setup if she gives you pictures that she already used for her Tinder.
Ask them for 4-6 pictures in different locations first and then make the profile on the iPhone after receiving the pictures to the iCloud email you made on the phone. Then you will get them to do the face verification.
Option 3: The solo methods
These ways don’t require any extra people and let you use any girl’s face you want. If you think very long and hard like I did (plus MONTHS of testing), you might be able to figure some out yourself but if you don’t want to waste your time you can message me to purchase them because I don’t want them becoming too well known or it can mess with my other scams.
Making the Tinder
When creating the account select some interests and put any bio you want but make sure its something a real girl would put. I don’t recommend putting your Snapchat or Instagram in the bio, it will lower your account trust score.
If you are not using option 3 for verifying the Tinder, just try to sign up as close to a house as possible. Do NOT sign up at a library or other public space.
Tinder trusts accounts more if they were created inside a house. They determine this based on your GPS coordinates. There are ways to spoof your GPS but they have their own issues so I never used them.
When I discovered option 3 I started going up to to random houses and leaned against them while creating the accounts. This makes Tinder think you are signing up from inside a house because GPS can be inaccurate up to a few meters. Of course try to find a house where you can get up close to the wall without getting caught.
Do not install or open Tinder unless you are ready to do the photo verification in the same session. If you try to create an account and then close the app when it asks you to do photo verification, you may be shadowbanned.
Do not reuse ANYTHING when making the Tinder. Every account should have its own phone (new or reset), number, sim card, Apple account (email). If Tinder can recognize any of these from a previous account or even an account creation attempt, you will probably get banned or shadowbanned instantly.
If the phone number you have was used for Tinder before in the past by someone else theres a chance that Tinder will mess with your account or account creation even if you did everything right. It might stop you from making an account or shadowban you. In that case reset your phone, get a new sim, and try again with a new number.
Using the Tinder
I suggest you leave the account for 24 to 48 hours after creation. Don’t open Tinder during that time. This lets you rack up likes before you start swiping, which I believe helps your account elo and increases your trust score.
Once you open Tinder after waiting, start with 3-10 swipes daily with 30-50% of them being right swipes (where you give the guy a like), and add 3-10 more swipes onto that number every day, until you reach 50-100 swipes per day. I personally don’t go over 50 swipes because I want to keep the accounts as safe as possible but you could probably get away with 100 if you distribute the swipes throughout the day. Don’t do exactly 50 or 100 swipes obviously, or you will look like a bot. Deviate the number within 5 swipes.
You will start getting matches and you can start talking to the guys immediately, but let them message you first always. Now just talk to them like a normal girl.
I don’t recommend buying the Tinder Gold subscription because for free you already get way more men than you can handle. Girls don’t typically by Gold either so it will lower your trust score. Only buy it if you live in a poor country and need to use the passport mode to scam guys in developed countries. This will make you seem a bit more suspicious to guys if they notice you are using passport mode, since girls don’t usually use it. If you need Tinder Gold, make sure you only buy it with gift cards, or else Tinder will see that you aren’t a real girl because of the name on the card.
For Bumble its different, buying the subscription won’t hurt your account (still, use a gift card). You will need the subscription if you want the Bumble account to be as effective as Free Tinder, or else its not even worth using. Bumble tries to only show you guys who haven’t liked you when you are swiping normally so its hard to get a lot of matches even if you received a shit ton of likes without the subscription.
Tips
- Avoid swiping right on guys that wouldn’t have a chance with your fake girl. Aim for guys that are around 4-6 out of 10 on the looks scale as they will be the easiest to scam. If the guy is too ugly he will be suspicious that he matched with a decent looking girl. This assumes your girl is 5-6 out of 10. If your girl is ugly then you can swipe right on subhumans.
- Don’t swipe right on guys that are too far away. If they are more than an hour away then they are too far. Sometimes the distance that Tinder shows you is completely off but you should still follow this rule.
- Don’t swipe right on guys who seem too broke, like some 18 year old college kid who has no car. If they have a job listed on their profile, a car in their pictures, or are over 25, they are good to swipe right on.
- Don’t spend too much more time on Tinder than a real girl would. When I was a beginner I used to spend 8 hours a day on Tinder which I suspect contributed to my first account getting banned after only 3 weeks. After that I started doing only 1-3 hours in the evening plus 1-3 weekend morning hours. Combining this with the other strategies I mentioned in this guide, I never got another account banned again.
- Most of the time, look through the guys profile before swiping, including their pictures and interests. This makes you seem more genuine to Tinder. Only swipe without looking through the profile once or twice for every ten swipes.
- Don’t swipe too fast. Spend around 5 to 10 seconds on every profile before swiping left or right. This obviously makes you seem more legit.
Dealing with Tinder bans
Tinder bans suck but they aren’t the end of the world. Reset your iPhone and follow the guide again. Figure out where you went wrong and don’t make the same mistake again. If you did this on Android you may need to buy a new phone, not sure. Make sure you don’t reuse the same pictures for Tinder and also don’t sign up or use the app from the same location as before.
Instagram/Snapchat explanation and tutorial
On Tinder, about 50% of the time the guy will ask for your SnapChat, 25% of the time your number, and 25% of the time your Instagram. This will change depending on the age of your girl, but I mostly used girls aged 22-18 because they get the most attention.
On SnapChat, guys will “snap” with you back and fourth. A “snap” is a photo that must be taken live (at that exact moment) with your phone’s actual camera. This is almost impossible to fake on mobile. On PC its easy but snapchat shows that you’re on PC, which ruins everything because why would a real girl use a laptop to snap her friends? It raises men’s guard significantly. Emulators/virtual machines are outdated and don’t work either.
If you want this method to work efficiently, its critical to be able to send real looking snaps on Snapchat, because every normal girl sends snaps. Theres been many ways to fake snaps in the past on mobile but they always get removed because the Snapchat developers actively seek out these methods and remove them. I’m one of the only people on this planet who knows how to send fake snaps on mobile that look completely indistuingishable from real snaps in 2025.
You can “snap” them using the glitch that allows you to upload whatever image you want and make it looks 100% like a real “snap”. This instantly convinces them that you are real, and lowers their guard to pretty much zero, especially since they saw that you were also photo verified on Tinder.
Pretty much every girl has Snapchat, so if you don’t have the fake snap method when a guy asks for your Snapchat you will be forced to convince them to take either your number or your Instagram instead, which will be suspicious. Your chances of scamming them after that are lower.
Any time such a glitch is posted on the internet, Snapchat works fast to fix it so I will not post it here. You can get it from me for a price because unserious people need to be filtered out or they will just get the glitch removed. If you need proof that I have the glitch, feel free to send me any picture you want and I will send it back as a snap on mobile. Don't send it on here though obviously. Message me on Discord or Telegram.
“But what images am I going to snap them with?” More on that later.
Setting up the Snapchat
Create the account and choose a username with only letters. No numbers or special characters/symbols. This is so that it will not be as obvious to Tinder when you share your username. This is important because Tinder may shadowban you if it thinks you are promoting your Snapchat or Instagram too much, which you will inevitably be doing if you are talking to ten guys at once. For example, if your fake girl is named Rachel O’pry, have the user name be something like “rachelopryyy”, do not use anything like “rachel_opry2005”.
Snap score is a number associated with your account which shows how many pictures you have sent and received on Snapchat. Your Snapchat account(s) will need to have a snap score over 100k to seem legit. Ive tried lower snap scores but most guys get suspicious immediately.
The slow way to get a high snap score account is to create a fresh one and spam your entire friends list using the multi snap tool. The more friends you have added, the more score you will get. To get friends there are Discord servers where people add eachother for the sole purpose of snap score farming. You can join those, or you can add random people and spam them at night before they block you when they wake up. Farming it yourself could take a few weeks though which is quite a waste of time.
The quick way is to buy Snapchat accounts with high snap score. In my experience, they typically get banned within 2 weeks unless you buy from a good source. My old source isn’t around anymore but at the time I bought a shit ton of backup accounts which are still good to this day. If you’re interested message me.
A lot of guys use Snapchat like a dating app on its own so you can scam a decent amount of guys that randomly try to add you (wannabe slayers). If you do this, DO NOT accept any friend requests from accounts that seem Indian or foreign. They are from mumbai and this will completely fuck your profile visibility because it will show you to more oversea Indians instead of people in your area.
Setting up the Instagram
Like with Snapchat, choose a username with only letters. Look at profiles of real girls for profile inspiration on what to write for your bio (profile description). An aged Instagram (old join date) will be best because what girl hasn’t been on Instagram since elementary school? You can try to find aged accounts online but its quite hard to find a legit seller. I have a few that I can sell, so message me if you are interested.
If you can’t get an aged Instagram account you can either skip guys who ask for your Instagram and take a hit to your efficiency or try to make a new one but if you do that then expect a lot of suspicious guys. Don’t bother trying to convince a guy who asked for your Instagram to take your Snap or number instead. They will almost certainly be too suspicious to scam at that point.
You’re going to want 200-1000+ real or real-looking followers, which is pretty easy to get if you are patient. I don’t recommend botting/buying followers because usually they seem fake and theres a chance your account gets a scam warning put on it by Instagram, meaning any guy who tries to follow you will get a warning to beware of scams. That would be an absolute death sentence for your Instagram account.
You can get followers simply by posting good pictures. When you get followers, follow them back and then follow people from their followers list, they will usually follow you back. Then later unfollow enough people so that you have more followers then you are following. To avoid getting flagged, I never followed more than 20 accounts per day. Theres also other strategies for getting followers which you can research on your own, this is just what worked for me.
Like Snapchat, a lot of guys use Instagram like a dating app on its own so you can scam a decent amount of guys from Instagram alone who find you and slide in your Dms.
How to get pictures for Snapchat and Instagram
The quick way:
You need pictures that are not reverse image searchable. Originally I went on social Discord servers and stole pictures from the selfies channel. These pictures are usually not reverse image searchable but double check every picture you download. Make sure the girl’s body and hair is somewhat consistent in the pictures you steal. Then I used a program called Facefusion to face swap a face of my choice onto all the pictures then cleaned them up with Photoshop. The problem is if too many people do this then the pictures will actually become reverse image searchable, so you can use the quick way to start out but try to move on eventually to the better way explained below:
The good way:
Eventually I started generating all my photos with AI because finding consistent pictures became a hassle. With the proper setup, you can achieve complete photorealism.
Don’t use an online service to do this, they are mostly shit. Instead download ComfyUI and find a model + LoRa combo that generates realistic looking girls. I used the BigLoveXL2.5 model with the DM D2 SDXL LoRa and Subtle Candidness 3 LoRa but theres probably better stuff out there now. You can find them on a site called civit.ai. Its pretty easy to set up with a YouTube tutorial. Just make sure you use the exact settings recommended for the model and LoRa that you use or else the images you generate will look off. Getting the image generator AI to consistently generate the exact face you want is a pain in the ass so I just used Facefusion to swap the face of my preferred girl onto the AI generated photos.
If your computer is complete ass then you will have to use an online service to generate the images. I recommend renting a virtual GPU and running ComfyUI on there.
How to chat with guys
Make basic conversation when you start talking. usually guys ask questions, you should answer them and ask something back (usually you can just ask them the same thing they asked you).
let him try to shift the conversation to the topic of a first date, until he does that, just continue basic conversation. Only shift the conversation yourself if its been days and he still has not offered to take you out. When the time comes, bring up your fake event/location, making it clear that you want to go there for a first date.
If he already has a date idea without asking you what you want to do, say something like “we could” and then ask if he likes something related to your fake spot (the guy will usually say yes), then offer to go there instead. This almost always works. If he doesn’t immediately agree you can beg him a bit. If hes not budging, block him and move on. Don’t waste your time.
Try not to mention your fake spot by name while on Tinder, always say “theres a place that does X” or “theres a few places that do X, [Name] is a good one” If one of your accounts gets banned, the name of your spot might become a word that triggers bans or shadowbans. If the guy is asking for the exact name of the place and you haven’t moved off Tinder yet then just say you forgot and have to ask your friend the name.
Eventually the guy will ask to move off of Tinder and you will agree. At this point you can freely name your fake spot when the guy asks the name of the place you are going together. After he looks at it, get him to buy the tickets. The way you do this depends on what kind of fake spot you created. For example, if you made a fake concert or festival, then just ask him to buy the tickets immediately for you both in case they sell out.
Offer to pay him back for your ticket later when you get some money if he doesn’t initially want to buy both. This usually works. If not, don’t force it. If he doesn’t budge you can say you will try to convince your parents to buy your ticket.
If your fake spot does not seem 100% legit, unmatch the guy before you name the spot. Unmatching a guy makes it way harder for him to report your account and get it banned if they figure you out. If Tinder finds your account suspicious at all, it only takes a few reports to get banned. Also unmatch immediately if a guy starts getting too suspicious, like asking to call, facetime, etc.
Chatting tips
- Keeping track of dozens of guys at the same time is quite challenging, especially when starting out. If you try to keep it all in your head you’re going to slip up eventually. Instead make notes or a spreadsheet with entries for each guy you move off Tinder with. Track the following things for each guy:
- Pictures that you already sent them (MOST IMPORTANT)
- Days he is free
- If he knows where you want to go for the date yet
- Day the date is planned for
- If he bought the tickets yet
- Other important things the two of you talked about (use your best judgement)
- NEVER send any links on Tinder, even if you have good reason to. It lowers your account trust score.
- If the guys profile says hes looking for something short-term (it either says long term or short term on the profiles) act like you might be down to hook up after the date by asking him if he has his own place and playing along if he invites you to come over after the date. This will increase your chances of scamming him since hes blinded by the idea of a first date hookup.
- You want to seem interested but not desperate. Originally I tried acting uninterested to try and get guys to pursue me more and make myself seem less suspicious but the guys just lost interest. Acting like you have options but also like you want to get to know them worked best for me.
- If talking on Snapchat, always half swipe to read messages first. That way you have time to think of an answer and it doesn’t seem like you are trying to figure out what to say next as much. If you don’t know what half swiping is just search it up. And don’t half swipe if the guy has Snapchat premium since they can see it. (only retards buy that btw)
- If you fail to scam a guy, always analyze exactly what went wrong, and make sure it doesn’t happen again. When I was a noob, it only took one guy to say my spot looked too sketchy since it wasn’t on Google Maps. After that I spent weeks creating and perfecting a Google Maps listing, which I will teach you how to do.
- Some guys you just won’t be able to scam no matter what. Don’t let it get to you, move on.
- Train your voice to sound like a female. It can come in handy if a guy is a little suspicious and wants to do a voice call. Theres plenty of tutorials on YouTube. You can also try using a voice changer but the first guy I tried it on realized instantly. I never perfected my female voice so usually I had to end up blocking guys if they really wanted to call, losing a sale. That doesn’t have to be you.
- To increase profits, you can try convincing him to go on a double date. Show him a fake hot friend and get his buddy to buy 2 more tickets/bookings. This tip works best if you are already scamming with multiple girls on multiple phones, since you will have the social media accounts to really make it seem like your friend is real.
- If you are sending pictures on iMessage or SMS, screenshot the picture and then send the screenshot instead. This way if a guy decides to save the picture and check the date/time, it will show up as if the picture was just taken.
After he buys
First of all, make sure he actually bought the tickets. Sometimes the guy says he did but I check the store and he actually didn’t. There can be many reasons for this, maybe he forgot, maybe he plans to do it later but just wants to appease you for now. Try to subtly remind them later without making it obvious that you can see whether they actually bought the tickets or not. Pretend you’re just making sure he got them or you that forgot.
In rare cases, a guy never ends up purchasing the tickets after he says he did, even after pestering him. The reason for this is still a mystery to me because they continue behaving as if they think you are real. If this happens then end things with him with the strategy explained below, don’t keep bringing the tickets up or else he might actually figure out whats going on.
Once you confirm the tickets were bought then you’re going to have to break things off somehow without him figuring out what just happened (because if they do then they may try to file a chargeback or a police report). My favorite way to do this was asking them if they are more left wing or right wing, and then acting mad no matter what they answer, then block them. This strategy saves them from thinking too hard about what just happened. They just think you’re a crazy bitch.
Only snapchat makes it obvious when you get blocked, so if you are talking to the guy on iMessage, SMS, or Instagram, make sure you tell them that they are blocked aswell so they don’t keep trying to message you.
Always end things with the guy on the same day that you were supposed to go on the date. That way he won’t have time to plan a date with another girl and try to actually go to your fake location to make use of his tickets.
Making the fake store
You will need to hide your personal IP address when creating the fake store, so that it can’t be easily traced back to you.
For the browser I recommend use the LibreWolf browser with a private window. “Antidetect” browsers have their own issues and LibreWolf works just as well if not better.
Linux is more secure than Windows for this but I know most of you won’t switch just for this, so atleast disable as much Windows telemetry (spying) as you can. Theres many tutorials on YouTube on disabling it.
If you have a laptop then use a hotspot with the data plan you bought for this method away from your house.
If you have a desktop you will have to use a VPN + residential/mobile proxy. If you don’t know what a proxy is then Google it please.
Use Mullvad VPN and any residential proxy (with a low fraud score). Mullvad is the only VPN you should use for this. They literally got raided and the police got nothing, because Mullvad doesn’t keep logs. Any other VPN service will instantly fold to the police and leak all your data to them upon request (yes including Proton).
Have Mullvad running on an operating system level, and then attach the proxy at the browser level. There are brower extensions let you route your browser connection through your proxy. This way Mullvad will be a barrier between you and the proxy (otherwise the proxy owners can see your real IP). You need the proxy as a barrier between your store builder site and Mullvad because Mullvad IPs all have a high fraud score and will get your store flagged otherwise. I would recommend an extension but the one I use doesn't seem to be available anymore on the extension store, so just find one with decent reviews and give it a try. You can use the site dnsleaktest.com to see how your connection/IP appears to websites.
Use prepaid debit cards to buy the store builder platform subscription and anything else mentioned. You can buy them online with crypto or IRL with cash. I don’t think the online service I used is available anymore either but you can find providers on the website kycnot.me. Obviously hide your IP when doing this aswell.
The type of business you choose to fake will have to be one where paying beforehand to buy tickets or make a booking is plausible. Fun and active date activities work best. Here are some business ideas to get you started: festival, concert, petting farm, boat rides, mini golf, pottery, skating.
I used Shopify for my fake stores. You can also try Stripe if you want to code the website yourself or Wix, but I cannot comment on them because I never used them.
The biggest obstacle for me with the store was getting a bank account to connect to the store. If you care about staying safe and avoiding taxes you are going to need a bank account thats not connected to you in any way on paper. Originally I tried buying accounts on the dark web but they either didn’t work or got banned rather quickly. And don’t bother using the bank account creation guides that have recently popped up here… they are copy pasted from old dark web forums and are outdated as hell.
I ended up convincing multiple people that I was a real business owner but Shopify didn’t support my country (this is actually a thing), so I needed them to connect their bank to my Shopify. They would keep 5% of profit for doing basically nothing, and then send me the rest in crypto. If you try this then don’t work with anyone from a shithole country. They will propably try to scam you. I ended up working with people from the Netherlands and Germany, who I found on job forums/Discords.
A different scam I’m running nowadays lets me create legit bank and crypto accounts so if you don’t want to go through the headache of finding a bank mule or acount then hit me up I can sell some accounts.
Once you have a bank account to connect to the store, the rest is pretty straightforward. Watch a tutorial on store setup for whatever platform you used. Add your fake products to the site. Use the following tips to make your store effective and look legit:
- Have multiple products, even if no ones supposed to buy them (Store themed merch for example).
- Buy an aged domain (4+ years old). This helps but isn’t required.
- Most of you probably won’t buy an aged domain because they can be expensive, so use Namecheap.com if you’re going to get a fresh domain. They are cheap, don’t flag accounts, and offer a free business email
- Find legit stores that sell similar services and copy them (but don’t copy 1 for 1)
- Set up a business email which you will add to your site (will be @website.com instead of @gmail.com)
- Add a refund policy to your site which states you can only get a refund if you cancel at least 72 hours prior, this will usually prevent guys from trying to get a refund.
Setting up Google Maps
Its essential to get your fake business on Google Maps. Guys expect to be able to find your spot on there easily. If they can’t find it there it immediately raises red flags. Things like concerts or festivals get a pass though, they don’t need to be on Google maps since they constantly change locations.
Its pretty easy to get on Google maps (for now). Watch a YouTube tutorial if unsure how. Create a new Google account on your new phone and let it sit for atleast a week before trying to make the listing. Make sure you choose a location that is actually near you, or else Google may ask for verification and that may slow down or completely stall the process.
Once your business is on Google Maps, you will want to add pictures of your business. What I did was travel to a similar business that isn’t too popular, take some pictures, and then remove any of their branding with Photoshop. I also horizontally flipped the image and slightly changed the hue to further obscure its origin. It doesn’t have to look perfect, just good enough to not raise suspicion at a glance.
You could try using existing pictures from the internet but I never did because I was afraid of getting flagged or reverse image searched. I also avoided using AI to generate the images because I was paranoid of invisible watermarks in the image.
You will also need reviews to make the Google Maps listing look legit. 20 is an okay amount but the more the better. I don’t recommend buying reviews online. They might look fake and/or get your listing flagged or taken down.
What I did for the reviews was paying random people outside 5$ to give me 4 or 5 stars. They can’t all be 5 stars or else it will look suspicious. I targeted young males because women and older people got sketched out a lot more. For every 20 young guys I asked, only one said no usually. Aim for 1-5 reviews per day, anything more would probably flag your listing while its still new. The best places to find guys to ask would be near highschools and in malls past whatever time highschools end in your area.
I would tell them I was working for an upcoming business and respectfully asked them if I could pay them 5$ for a rating. For 1 out of every 3-4 ratings you should ask a guy to write a review instead of just giving you a rating. Prepare a review for him to write ahead of time.
How to cash out
Shopify automatically deposits your earnings every 2-4 days (Except first deposit which takes 1 week) to the linked bank account. You will then purchase Litecoin (LTC) on a crypto exchange, and send it to a non custodial wallet. A non custodial wallet is a crypto wallet which you have complete ownership of. Any crypto left in an exchange is basically owned by the exchange still. They can freeze or sieze your funds as they please, so get your crypto out of there ASAP. I use the Electrum LTC wallet. You can also use Bitcoin (BTC) instead of LTC but I never did because BTC is way slower.
For the crypto exchange platform it depends on your country but I suggest you stay away from CoinBase. They are very paranoid and will use any excuse possible to freeze or delay your transactions. I recommend having accounts on multiple exchanges to get around the withdraw or deposit limits if they exist on your exchange. Extra accounts also come in handy if one gets frozen or banned. You can also try peer to peer trading to skip the exchanges entirely but I haven’t done it so I can’t comment.
Once you have your LTC, swap it for Monero (XMR), and then swap it back for LTC. XMR is a privacy coin that is virtually impossible to trace, unlike BTC and LTC which have all their transactions public. Then you need to swap it back to LTC because XMR works so well that its banned by most exchanges, so you won’t be able to directly sell XMR for Fiat (normal money) and will have to use a swap service to obtain it. I used Wizardswap.pw to do the swapping but do your own research on swap sites to avoid getting scammed because these swap sites can switch up on you. Kycnot.me is a good site to find trustworthy services.
When you swap it back for LTC you are basically erasing any connection you had to the illegally obtained LTC. Make sure that you get the clean LTC sent to a completely different clean LTC wallet, or else you will have to restart because that LTC is now associated with your dirty wallet.
After that, its safe to send LTC to your personal crypto exchange account tied to your real identity. Now you can do whatever you want with it, like trading it for Fiat. Unless you are making millions, no one really looks into or cares how you got the crypto so the cleaning method described here will be enough.
Crypto Tips
- Never swap over $1000 worth of crypto per transaction on swap sites. The larger the amount, the more likely that they will sieze it. I even recommend staying below $500. Every time a swap site siezes crypto under the excuse that it might have been obtained illegally, they lose reputation. They wont risk reputation for a measly $500 but it might be worth it for them if you try to swap $10,000 at once (this actually happened to someone swapping 10k worth of ETH at once)
- Don't deposit large amounts of money at once into your crypto exchange either. $1000 per day should be the maximum per account.
- If you want to avoid paying taxes on most of your earnings, keep most of the value in XMR and only swap a certain amount to clean LTC when you want to buy something. That way you only pay tax on what you spend, not earn.
Safety tips
- Only take the burner phones out of the faraday cages if you are a 20+ minutes walk away from your home.
- Find a private spot in a residential area a few KM away from your home where you can sit and use the phones. If you have a car it will help a lot, but increases risk slightly due to your license plate. Try not to sit right in front of someones house because they may call the police or confront you. The side or behind of a house works best, especially if they have some sort of tall fence.
- Do not bring your personal phone with you when you do this method, or else it may be associated with your burner phones due to the frequent close proximity. This is because phones constantly ping cell towers, giving away their location.
- Do not tell people IRL that you are doing this method. It will be hard not to because it is very exciting at first, but it can only harm you in the long run.
