5. Fort Bragg remind people to be safe and to look out for Valentine's Day scams. "LOOKING FOR A VALENTINES DATE? Please consider one of these three. After considering them, swipe left. The two Soldiers on the outside, Eli and Donny, are two of the most impersonated profiles that we see. Mike is the better choice, but he is still a little stiff until you get to know him.
The group gave a few rules for meeting an "alleged soldier" online and said the most important rule is to never send anyone money because it is more than likely a scam.
"Before you friend any Soldier you don't personally know on social media, please read about online romance scams," Fort Bragg said.
