If you were sent to this article directly from the app, your Grindr account has been reported by another user for suspected impersonation. We always take these reports seriously, as issues with fake accounts are a major complaint from our users.
Accordingly, we've suspended your account until you can verify your ownership. Once you do so, we’ll restore your access to your Grindr account.
In order to verify your identity, please fill out this form, and follow the appropriate instructions below based on your account:
- If you created your account via email, please include a selfie of you holding a piece of paper with the email address associated with your Grindr account written on it. These selfies are deleted from our systems after they're used to verify your identity.
- If you created your account via a third party (ie, via Apple, Google, or Facebook account) please include a selfie of you holding a piece of paper with your device ID written on it. You can find this listed on the screen you see when you open the app. These selfies are deleted from our systems after they're used to verify your identity.
We appreciate your cooperation. For more information, feel free to visit our privacy policy and community guidelines.
