Keeping Your Home Address Private Before Meeting on Happn
Withhold a home address until well after in-person trust has been established. On Happn, where the dominant catfish pattern is fabricated real-world proximity used to manufacture false familiarity, this applies directly: A home address, once known, is difficult to take back and can be found through surprisingly indirect means (a photo background, a package screenshot).
Steps
- 01
Avoid photos that show identifying details of your home (street signs, house numbers, unique landmarks).
- 02
Meet in public for early dates rather than at your residence.
- 03
If shipping something, use a pickup point or workplace instead of a home address.
