[quote=Anonymous]Did anyone else read the article?
"Josh Brito, a tech entrepreneur in Washington, D.C., recently signed up for Bring Me Bae, a matchmaking “bounty” platform. Clients choose how much they are willing to pay for a match. The reward is displayed below their profile picture. It looks a bit like a wanted poster.

...
Potential matches for clients are vetted by the Bring Me Bae team before any introduction is made. The reward money is put up by the clients and held in a separate account before it is disbursed to the person who made the successful match.

The minimum bounty price is $10,000. Mr. Brito decided on $25,000, though he debated whether offering that much might send the wrong signal. “I worried it was an ick, like this guy has to pay that much for a date,” he said. But he also felt it was sending a signal about how seriously he was taking the process. “If I’m not doing everything I can, then I can’t complain about not getting the result I want,” he said.

The considerable bounty hasn’t yielded any matches yet, but Mr. Brito is optimistic it will pay off in ways that defy measurement."

Just, wow.  Sounds a whole lot like this guy got scammed.
