When he tried to get me to invest, he claims we should do something before we meet so we can grow something for the future. He was just throwing it into the convo throughout the day when we were talking. Periodically he would send me screenshots of those "investments" and how much he was making. The talk of Cryto investing started to come in as one of his "hobbies" as he has started to invest small amounts in 2011, claiming his friend got him into it. What gave me the red flag was he started to call me Babe, baobei or my love within a week of talking which is kind of suspicious as we never have met as our parents always say to be careful of strangers. He sent pictures of his office, meetings (pictures with no one wearing a mask while having a meeting, go figure), food and scary part is also pictures of a local restaurant in Toronto with the exterior and menu (tried to look in Google search and did not find his pictures on there). He claims he lives in the Yonge and Sheppard area of Toronto with his pet cat, cooks, cleans and pretty much a "dream" man every girl is looking for. His GF broke up with him 2 years after he came to Canada since she didn't want to immigrate to Canada and has stayed single for over 2 years. Immigrated to Canada as an investor immigration in 2017 first to Ottawa, lived there for 6 months before moving to Toronto. Here is some information he told me while talking, Chinese man (claims to be from Hangzhou in a neighbourhood called Wulin No.1) at the age of 33, has a business to do model homes in the Greater Toronto Area and had frequent business trips so we cannot meet until the end of December. We talked everyday for about 2 weeks with what we are doing everyday. His profile was gone within 2 days of us matching on Hinge. Fine, so we moved over to WhatsApp to continue our conversation. Shortly after, he asked to move the conversation to WhatsApp. I matched with a guy named Jimmy and we had a couple conversations with where you are from in China (yes, it was a good looking Chinese guy) and our Chinese names. I was on Hinge from Toronto, Canada during November 2021 because I wanted to actually find a partner as we all have been stuck at home during the pandemic especially as a lot of people are working from home. Luckily I didn't give any money to these scammers but want to give this as a warning to all us out there. I wanted to share my story with everyone that is online dating and the amount of efforts they go nowadays.
