from Buried Files · host Buried Files
DESCRIPTION:A single swipe was all it took. A woman matched with her gas station "dream guy," only to end up locked in his car while he asked if she would ever eat someone. A stalker created a fake Tinder profile of his ex, inviting at least 18 strangers to her home in the middle of the night, telling them she wanted to be "roughed up". In Sao Paulo, over 90% of recorded kidnappings now start with a fake dating profile.In this episode, we examine four true and deeply disturbing Tinder horror stories. A TikToker's "meet-cute" turned into a nightmare when her date locked her in his car and asked if she'd ever eat human flesh [citation:2]. A woman was left stranded on the side of the road after her Tinder date robbed her, drove off, and filmed the ordeal to laugh at with his friends [citation:6]. A stalker used Tinder to terrorize his ex, inviting strangers to her home while her teenage daughter was upstairs alone [citation:3][citation:8]. And the murder of British backpacker Grace Millane, strangled after a Tinder date, sparked international outrage when the killer used a controversial "rough sex" defence [citation:10][citation:5].One swipe was all it took to turn a first date into a nightmare. Listen if you dare.
