Question about Warning on messages

I receive this warning on every single message I get from a man on here. I am not sure why. does anyone have insight on it?

We recommend you avoid sharing your contact details.

In case any user asks you to send money to them, or asks for sensitive information such as your address or password, please use extreme caution. Be very careful of the amount of trust you put in someone you met online, as scams and other malicious activities are very common online. If you suspect that a user is trying to scam you, please report the message immediately, by pressing Report at the bottom of the message, and do not reply to that user anymore.

I've had that message several times, I never thought much of it, thought it was a random sw reminder to be honest but as long as you're wise about knowing these are online 'relationships' and that you can never truly trust anyone here, so it's not wise to share your personal identification, you will be fine.

@akindheart it's probably nothing. I wouldn't worry if you're protecting yourself.

@akindheart definitely got to be aware though, some very odd people here. One man started messaging me and he seemed nice and normal until he started talking about sex with dogs!!!! The block button is also good lol 😂

@akindheart I was but 10 years ago, way before it closed. I was RobertaSunset on there but I left to spend more time with my kids. I'd never heard of anything like that before though so it was quite a shock.
