LMAO yall are killing me with the “His Majesty’s Prison” thing. I should have put more respec on the mans name

That story of Adam is heartbreaking. What a beautiful daughter that will now grow up without her daddy. Absolutely disgusting how they had no regard for them.

I can’t imagine taking someone’s life for a cut of $50

The poor lady walking her dog finding 2 bodies in the same spot on separate occasions. I wonder if she started taking a new walking route after the second time 😅

That second story was absolutely heart wrenching. Killing a man in cold blood like that? After he pleaded? Oh wow that's cold man

That 2nd story with the single father hit me hard. He seemed like a really decent man and father. Why does a man like that have something so cruel done to him, and not to a deadbeat abusive father?

Ah children, back in my day, we didn't have dating apps. We had party phone lines! Call a number, and get matched with a person or go into a voice chat room of sorts. I knew a girl who used one of these lines to arrange a "paid date" with a man. Turns out, she and her boyfriend jumped the guy to rob him and ended up murdering him and stealing his car. The guy was a local attorney, so his disappearance was front page for a couple days until his body was found. That was when I saw this chick's mugshot on the news, and was like, "oh no! That's so-and-so's ex! She's been to my house!!!" She and her bf are still in prison.

I feel bad for the first woman, but suing the website is ridiculous. They have no way to control for whether psychos use it.

The second story is not only horrible for the obvious moral reasons, but it also just makes me wonder what they were thinking. Going in I thought the guy was going to get shot trying to fight the robbers or something like that, but no, they just added a murder charge onto a few hundred dollar robbery for absolutely no benefit. Were they afraid of being identified? It doesn't sound like he knew them. Were these lowlifes stupid enough to rob a guy at gunpoint without masks? Obviously the tragedy of the whole thing is the main focus here, but I really do wonder what in the actual fuck they thought would happen.

Man in that second story with the father really breaks my heart and the fact that girl only got 25 years, they should’ve all gotten life without parole

I never understood how attempted murder doesn’t carry the same charge as murder. You tried to kill someone and failed so you get less time?

I met my fiancé through online gaming. Even though we gamed and talked for hours upon hours each day, when we finally met up after 8 months, I was still a bit hesitant and made sure I was safe as possible. I was so relieved that the person I fell in love with online was the person I met in person. You can trust someone online, but breaking that real life barrier can be scary. And you still have that thought in the back of your mind “what if this person is a killer or rapist?”

The second story made me upset 😢 how can you be such cowards.. RIP my guy! You seem like a good dad.

The grinder serial killer story is infuriating. So many young guys lost their lives and they took a long time to catch this pos.

I got some crazy toe fungus going on rn

25 years?!? Hailey Bustos needs to stay in prison as long as that man's daughter is alive at a minimum. All of the perpetrators in that case deserve the chair.

That baby lost her father just because he was looking for love probably looking for help to raise a child. My heart is just crumbling her entire life decided by one bad decision that wasn't even her own. I just hope everything works out for her and her life and this isn't just leading to a broken human.

Damn why the fuck did they have to kill Adam? They were already robbing him, dude was a single father. That made me tear up that's so sad :(

This is why I don't use dating apps. That and not getting matches destroys my self esteem.

I live in the same area where the grindr killer lived. It was a huge shock to the community and shook everyone up. The police were very slow to catch him and lives could have been saved. Very sad

Hayley Bustos could've told him that she's hungry and needs $50. He seemed like a nice person; he probably would've just given her those $50

14:28 For $50 dollars. For $50 dollars she played the part that got this man killed. I don't understand how--

I actually just watched a show which featured the woman in the first part. It was a miracle that she survived, he severely injured her but she pulled through and was able to make practically a full recovery. Something was looking out for her that day.

I feel bad for the first woman but I fail to see how Match should be sued for it. If you met a stranger at a bar and then the stranger attacked you, would you sue the bar too?

For the second story. Does anyone else think a 27 almost 30 year old single father was trying to date a 18 year old girl? And why is this girl hanging out with 26 to 31 year old guys?

Wavy is turning into a true crime channel and I, personally, am all for it

The fact that I knew one of Stephens victims is heartbreaking. I remember I was on a bus and saw all the forensic tents outside his flat and had no idea what it was about

I have a story like this. I live in a pretty small town in Ireland (population 19,000). We had a scary few days in which a serial killer was on the loose. On the first day, a man was attacked and was nearly blinded while walking his dog. On the next day, a TD (politician) was found murdered and sexually mutilated. On the last day another man was found dead, a home-help nurse who was very badly mutilated in a manner similar to the first murder. To make matters worse, his teenage nieces were the ones who found him. Both of the men were (perhaps closeted) gay men who were using Grindr or some other app to set up meetings. It turned out the killer was a 23 year old Middle Eastern man who had grown up in the town. He was in the year below me at school, but I didn’t really know him. He came from a particularly conservative Muslim family with a hyper-masculine father. His motive solely derived from his hatred of gay people, but some people suspected that he was gay himself. A terrible story all around and a pretty crazy thing to happen in such a small town.

I had a friend growing up. Same friend used Grindr to target gay men to beat and rob with his other friend in Texas in 2019. Lost a football scholarship his older brother made good on and is now doing 20 or so years behind bars. Plus I almost got scammed on OkCupid. This stuff ain't a game

I live in Lafayette Louisiana. During the summer of 2020, a local youth was lured into the home of a guy on Grindr, the local youth was tied up and tortured and nearly had both of his hands amputated. The attacker had a very disturbing Facebook profile, and it was even inspired by Jeffrey Dahmer. Edit: the attacker’s name was Chance Seneca

I have some horror stories of my own, but one thing that cracked me up about this was how the algorithm blasted me with ads for dating apps while watching this video. Nice work, Google, showing that you either haven't become sentient, or if you have, you've become a psychopath.

The "playing with children's toys as a grown man" part came on as I was looking at my new Transformer that came in the mail.

The Wade Ridley case is very distrubing because he is not much different from most abusers. This is something I learned from the book "Why does he do that" by Lundy Brancroft. The terrifying thing is that when he attacked those women, he didn't lose control like he claims. It's clear that he didn't lose control because he didn't hurt himself or anyone besides the woman he wanted to attack. When he said "She needed to pay for what she has done", that is the more accurate statement. She has hurt him and he believes he is entitled to punish her in retaliation, and that murder is a justified punishment. This has throughly convinced me never to touch online dating again, thanks. Yes, men like this exist outside of online dating too, but they usually have reputations that follow them. Online dating makes everything much easier for men with dangerous attitudes. BTW, it is not much different with Stephan Port. Stephan Port has fantasies about what his perfect romantic partner will be like, and when the boys he meets don't live up to that, and disappoint him or hurt him in the process, he believes that he is entitled to murder them. In his mind, literal murder is equal to whatever tiny and probably unintentional offenses these boys committed.

Unfortunately this is the world we live in. In order to minimize your risk when using online dating apps/websites, always meet in a public place that has a decent amount of people like a restaurant. Drive yourself (do not let the other person give you a ride) and if you can, take a photo of said persons car and send it to your safety contact. Which brings me to my next point, have a safety contact. Send a photo of the person you’re meeting, and their name, as well as where you’re meeting them to a friend or family member. Someone should always know where you’re going and who you’re meeting. Don’t keep things on the DL for your own safety. You can also have check in times with your safety contact where they know to reach out to you if you haven’t touched base and call the cops if they can’t get ahold of you. You and this safety contact should have something like “friend finder” on your phone so they can pinpoint your location. Do NOT go home with them no matter how hot they are and don’t let them come to your home. Wait until you know them better. They shouldn’t know where you live. Is some of this excessive? Maybe. And odds are you’re not going to need it, the average person isn’t. But better to have safety plans in place and not need them then to need them and not have them.

Online dating is toxic all around. You don’t meet loyal, good spouses like that.

This is why I will never use dating apps. Even though I’m 20 and never had a girlfriend. I’m staying away from dating apps/websites for this very reason.

The second story was so horrible - Its crazy this still happens where singles on these dating apps say: "can I stay at your place" and you tend to wonder if their motive is the same as this chicks was. She literally had her friends waiting for her to find a guy who had stuff they could steal and then they go ahead and take his life for his tvs, xbox, and money. What horrible people!! I hope Hailey rots in a dark cell 💯

I remember hearing not so long ago in my country about a group of men who would catfish others on grindr only to beat them up at the encounter. And of course, several of my friends had their pictures stolen and used on Tinder by scammers, really sad how in either case authorities did nothing and there was actually no coverage of the story.

Dude, the single father didn't put up a fight and was willing to let the criminals take whatever. He just wanted to be alive to raise his daughter. They still shot and killed him! Poor guy. I feel terrible for him and his daughter.

Online dating may seem totally harmless at first glance, however, there’s so much more to it than meets the eye. People should always be cautious who they’re interacting with online. It may seem extra, but the least they could do is to verify the identities of the people they’re engaging with. Check if they had extensive criminal record, have an NBI clearance, to name a few examples. Overall, this video really puts into our minds the importance of being constantly and consistently careful with what we’re up to in various social media apps apart from those which kinda specialize on dating.

Damn, the police really believed Port at first. Reminds me of when Dahmer got away with stuff at first - until they found his stinky shrine made of humans.

I am not exaggerating when I said I shed tears for Adam...but mostly that poor baby that lost her father. You didn't just kill him..you killed a baby inside. She'll never be the same. I have three kids. .they Love and need their parents. I cannot afford to leave this world.What a bunch of scumbags .

I was going to use dating apps to find a lover when I turn 18, because I find it easier to build relationships online than in person due to my autism. But after this video, I'm having second thoughts...

I remember the honey trap case, boze vs. the world watched the trail of Andre Warner and their only defense was to say that they weren’t involve because they were at home asleep.

My next door neighbor's 20 year old son had a girl living with him that he was just trying to help out. He just wanted to give her a good roof over her head, give her some time to save up money and get her own place. She was talking to a guy on tinder, invited him over while my friend was at work, and when the guy got there he ended up wanting to ransack the house and rob it. She tried to kick him out, but instead he grabbed a kitchen knife and stabbed her 22 times. All of this happened on Halloween of 2021. She somehow lived, she got outside bleeding profusely, neighbor saw it, ran to her aid and then saw the guy running from the house and two of the neighbors went after him and got him to the ground and he was arrested and he is currently in prison for attempted murder. This was in the Cleveland Ohio area, not to dox myself for my friend, I'm giving a general area

In addition to the direct victims, these cases also ruin it for EVERYBODY ELSE because they make everybody afraid that the people they're finding on dating sites/apps are scammers or killers, so nobody can find a partner. 🤦 😠

This is the sole reason why I stopped using dating apps years ago and it's the greatest decision I've ever made, deleted all of my dating app accounts and living a happy life with a loving, cheerful, caring, non psychopathic woman who wants nothing but the best for me and our future family, be careful who you link up with online because your first conversation might be your last?

Online dating is tempting but just way too dangerous.

So on all of the Grindr cases, not ONCE did the cops check for a scrap of DNA evidence or check CCTV footage until families came forward. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

This is why I don’t do online dating. These kinds of stories are way more common than anyone wants to admit.

the fact that in the second story near the end during this part 17:09 you can hear the daughter crying is so heartbreaking

Dear guys and gals.... If Your significant other reads through Your phone without Your knowledge, as if having things hidden from them was some cardinal criminal offense, freaks out when You are simply talking to a person of another/preffered gender, as if exchanging few words was allready equal in his/her mind to bedding them... I don't care who You think he or she was in their "best". Just run away. Away from them. Break up, block their number, don't let them close to Yourself or Your loved ones. If they will keep harrassing You, do Your best to get a restraining order. Such diaturbed personalities are damn fertiliser for a ground on which insanity and every effed up thing that comes with it, can bloom. Place of such people is in straightjacket, not by Your side. And don't believe he/she will "change". It's a mental horrible issue and more often than not, such people are not possible to rehabilitate (as they don't see how anyone can view their waco actions as anything out of the "norm", and therefore don't see a reason in changing their attitude). If You ever come across such a person, do Yourself a favor and leave them as they deserved to be - by themselves.

I saw dating app killers.. and I was like... something related to anti dating apps... not actual criminals... LOL... what the hell is happening in my mind .... I need help...

That poor dogwalking lady, finding two murdered men in a matter of days...

I've had some moments in dating sites where it seemed really obvious that I was gonna be robbed or worse. Some people act very desperate and like they need help. And when I suggest other things they get very defensive. I even got one to admit that she was trying to hustle me for money. It's dangerous out there for both men and women. Careful yall

Oh my god, the second one. That poor little girl losing her dad at 5 like THIS, and he seemed like such a nice guy, or a good dad at least. As someone with a single mom, that is utterly heart wrenching. Absolute demons

Huge fan Wavy, you have a charisma that appeals and I hope you make (and keep making) tons of content like this and your other videos of the type.

Rest in peace, Adam Hilaire. Now, we can only hope and pray for the best for his daughter

a girl from Green bay wisconsin did the same thing, drove some kid down to milwaukee and the kid got beat up and robbed, and then they tossed him into the milwaukee river where he died cause this happened in the winter. at the time she was dating and i think still is with the little brother of my ex from hs. the courts didnt prosecute her AT ALL instead slapped her on the wrist and literally gave her a police escort where ever she went. they literally protected her and she was the cause of what happened. she had the idea, she drove the poor bastard to his death knowing damn well what was gonna happen. still to this day she has a presence on the internet, she goes around the city " with some ppl still remembering shes a f-ing killer" and she got away with it cause she was a young mother who didnt know any better.. oh and shes white with her daddy having connects in the courts in brown county. its honestly sick cause this regularly happens in wisconsin where women do heniouse shit and they get away with it cause their women. its mind boggling how she got away with actual fucking murder. then went on to commit multiple acts of fraud and drum rollllll...she got away with it again cause ' im a young mother who doesnt know any better".... like idk how tf you use the same plea 2x and it works both times. at this point the whole city was sick of her shit and last i heard she skipped town but didnt go far cause i was working on a building in wrightstown wisconsin and their was matthew, working on the line.. like yall couldnt move further then 25 miles south of Green Bay? hes your stereotypical white guy from the burbs to, he was a good kid but idk wtf happen the best way to describe him is go watch the Chappels show episode were they do a wife swap and the burbs kid white boy turns into a thug cause somehow growing up in that situation was so damn hard. Which his dad was loaded, his ma was a nice women as well like the whole family was nuclear and loving, i dead ass stayed with his sister for a long time cause i enjoyed being around her family.. i grew up in the poorest area in gb living on section 8 so like i said i have no idea what fueled the kid to turn into such a pos and im certain he had a hand in that murder cause he went to war to defend his girls actions in luring and murdering that poor kid. to the point he got his ass kicked at a mcdonalds cause some dudes got sick of his mouth on the internet and waited for him to get done with work. he pressed charges just like any hardcore gangbanger would lol but the whole city funded a go fund me to pay for the guys bails that whipped his ass. So much more info on the internet about what happened i think anyone that made a video on it would get a lot of views cause what happen is sooooo fucked up and the fact she got no time for assisting in murder was just shocking. i Had to do a lot of digging but her name is Emma Brud, clearly her family has done a lot to clean up anything on the internet about what she did but the mugshots of her are still up lol

14:28 50 DOLLAR CUT?? she decided to get involved in a federal crime for a 50$ cut? that is so pathetic... Theres no way she didnt think she was getting way more than that, I wouldnt do it for a billion dollars but i refuse she did it for 50

I’m thankful that I met my wife 11 years ago in my mid 20’s just as dating sites were begging to take off and a few years before dating apps came around. I wouldn’t even begin to know how to date in the modern era.

Found it mad that the guy who executed the dude in the honey trap case, didn't have a tattoo in his mug shot, but in his prison photo he had a tattoo of a crosshair on his forehead, almost like he's further mocking the guy or even worst, he's proud of it.

The last guy is literally Jeffery Dahmer reborn

This is why I don't get how people would ever want to meet up at their place. Like it's almost insulting. How do I know you won't hold me captive and kill me. There's just too many possibilities for me to wanna do that.

"You don't look like your picture. Let's get this over with." "I wonder which one of us is the murderer."

Man I used to use those dating sites. Haven’t used them in 5 years about to get married. So glad I don’t have to put myself out there anymore with some crazy people out there

So they didn't check the bodies for dna, any camera footage or proof check the note with his other writings. I've seen a similar case on youtube where the british police interrogated a man over 9 times and didn't clue in. Really pisses you off when you hear them doing the most lazy unprofessional blunders and most basic checks.

It really says a lot about KZfaq when a third of the way into this video I get an ad for a dating site

There was a recent scam to do with dating apps that lured people to Bangkok, a malaysian man faced torture at some point after arriving which led to his passing... The internet is not always a safe place and you must be careful

So, you killed a man for 50 bucks and get 25 years? Nah, fam. Give her the chair

most of these true crime dramas are about youtube, facebook, twitter, dating apps, reddit....etc....im so sick and tired of trolls getting away with beat downs, murder, etc we all need to get along and work together....THIS almost happened to me back in 2011...ive been in hiding for 13 years -.- and.....i cant give out my real youtube name here....because i'd be tracked down again...

My ex wife met her second husband on Match. He moved in with her and my daughter three months after they met. I was furious. I told her this was not normal but she assured me he was a good guy. Fast forward to one year later, they disappeared with my kid. Took 6 years to find them again. SIX FUCKING YEARS. Come to find out he was beating the shit out of my ex wife the entire time, even when she was pregnant with their kid. The kid was born autistic and the blame is on him cuz she strangled her to the point of passing out three times while she was pregnant. They’re divorced now but my kid is in therapy, my ex wife is forever traumatized, and dude is in jail for other shit. I will always stand by what my mom told me when I was young…u never actually know someone until you’ve literally lived with them for a year or longer. Moving too fast is never a good idea.

This is good, I'd love to see romance scams for part 2! You have such a big channel and I'd love to see you bring awareness to the topic. We all know the potential dangers, as far as safety goes. But the lesser known is the scammers! That have stolen billions, and mostly located in Western Africa

That second story had my crying like a baby. His poor daughter.

That single father case was ridiculous to say the least ridiculous because the robber could've just robbed him and potentially charge with armed robbery but instead they killed him at last minute and charged with armed rubbery and murder

i feel so so so so bad for adam from the plentyofish story. he had no reason to die, and he just wanted to be the best father for his little girl. poor man. i hope the family can heal from this horrible situation.

I would love your take on famous killer, Peter Madsen, who lured a journalist onto his own submarine. Good story.

I hope that girl from the PoF dating app serves every single day of her 25 year sentence. Adam should still be alive if not for her.

The second case: she only got 11 years, it was later argued the plea deal was misinterpreted, and they reduced her sentence or something. Wild to think about.

I realize its weird, but if I ever did online dating I would always go to a public place and bring someone with me. Its just not safe to meet a stranger alone.

My dad used the predecessor to a dating app back in the 70s, before he met my mom. Apparently it was some sort of "supercomputer" with an algorithm that matched people based on their questionnaire answers. The young lady he matched with was named Gretah, but he read it as "Greath" (yes, like "grease") and I guess was too embarrassed to do anything about it. I met my wife on Tinder, but I probably wouldn't be comfortable letting our kids use dating apps in the future.

This entire video, every time I could've been robbed and/ or harmed is flashing before my eyes. I'm absurdly lucky. Stay on your pivot, people!

The downside : no online dating. Upside : I'm still alive. 🤔

The second story with the dad, begging them not kill him so he could take care of his daughter was so sad 😢

So, I meet this gal on POF and we get to chatting through the website. I look over her profile and she claims to be 26 years old, 5'2" (I'm 5'7") with an average build. By her photographs, she looks very pretty and I have no reason to doubt that this is not her. Flash forward a few days later when we come to an agreement to meet up. The only way she can meet up is after work, as she works two jobs and goes to school. She asks me if I would like to hang out and talk by the park near her house at around 7pm. I did not think it was too odd as we had been flirting back and forth on the messenger and I was really taken by her. Well, I go to the park (which is already dark except for a single light post and a bench next to it) and I am now totally alone sitting on the bench. I look around and from the distance I see the shape of a woman coming towards me. As she comes closer to me, I start to notice a similar facial appearance to the woman in the POF photos. It's my date except she is not 5'2", average build, or even remotely looking like a 26 year old and more like a 6 foot tall 17 year old line backer. Right away I become uncomfortable- but I try to stay calm. We start chatting (bad idea) and she starts telling me that she has gone on over 200+ POF dates and almost always usually ‘bangs’ on the first date. She goes on to tell me that she wants to write a dating book about her "sexy" adventures in the online dating world. Well, after 30 or so minutes of back and forth chatter (mostly from her) I tell her that I need to leave as I had work the next morning. She agrees to let me go but only after I gave her a hug. I shrugged and said why not. Well as I go in for the hug, she pulls me in to her gravitational pull using what I can only describe as "alligator strength" and starts to bear hug me. As I start pulling away from her- her hands start stretching towards my butt which she firmly grasps like two sweet potatoes. I start saying something to the effect of "uh, yeah, okay, that's enough now" and she lets me go but not before giving my chest pecs a thorough examination with her butcher claws. After what seemed like an eternity, she lets me down from her grand bosom, I do a 180 spin as I tell her goodnight and start speed walking towards my car. I hear her say something as I am walking away but I was too frightened to look behind me. I jump in my car and speed off into the night.. never to see her again.

Bruhhh Steve Port has some crazy eyes they are looking in all directions at once

i havent watched the full video yet but ive had my own experience with nearly being murdered by someone i met on a teen "dating" app (yubo) when i was 13. it was unexpected and i thought i was being safe on the internet. so no matter how "safe" u think ur being online just PLEASE be extra careful. it can happen to anyone and its fucking scary and also sad knowing other people have similar stories or even worse ones.

well edited, as always. LOVE YOU!!!

This makes me even more hesitant to ever use dating apps again. I didn't have anything like this happen but I did get catfished by a girl using a several years old pic of herself who had,ahem..let herself go so to speak. Like badly. I stupidly told her where I lived beforehand and when I met her I went ahead and ate dinner with her bc I didn't want to hurt her feelings even tho she'd basically defrauded me lol. That turned into a 4 month long stalking episode where she was sending endless texts,calling,writing letters (who the hell does that anymore) showing up to my work and home,etc. It was a nightmare and I finally broke down and got a restraining order put on her bc I was at my wits end. Needless to say I've only met girls IRL since then at bars and stuff and I try to stick to the ones that have friends with them so I know at least someone can stand them.

This is a good series that needs to be continued. This is also something new i have seen in recent days.

Just a advice for anyone going on a date it maybe a online or just meeting some but never bring them to your house atleast for a few months. If they get your address they can harm you. So no matter how much you trust or like anyone but just avoid giving them your real address

The police work on that last case is freaking mind numbing

Wavy busting into the true crime genre.

I know of several minors at the time who were raped and given AIDS from online dating. There are many tiers of monsters…. What’s so screwed up as we see those people everywhere and assume the best but pick a random person and there’s a great chance they are evil in some way it’s disgusting. Good folks get walked all over their entire lives

These types of stories are why I refuse to go on a date after just a couple of dating app messages. I at least want to know the person somewhat prior to meeting (partly so that I can tell my friends who can tell the cops in a worst case scenario).

I just can’t comprehend how you can execute an innocent man begging for his life like that, and for such selfish reasons. Anyone who is willing to do that is not a human. They don’t deserve to live. Situations like this make me an advocate for the death penalty.

Gotta be honest, this video makes me never want to use a dating app ever again.

I realize that hindsight is 20/20, but i swear i can see the "crazy" in most serial killers eyes before I have any knowledge about what they did. It's like a cold, black, bottomless well of hate and ignorance.

"Wade; your track record is pretty weak bro. maybe it's you, not the ladies?" jeeze what a psychopath

You should talk about the time a 20 year old murder case that was solved because of Legos
