Digital Platform Leverage

The speakers discuss several alternative business approaches that could have made the Tinder Swindler's scheme more legitimate or profitable.

Key Points:

• B2B Corporate Invoicing Strategy:

  • Send invoices directly to large companies like Microsoft and Apple
  • Target accounts payable departments
  • Potential to receive payments without immediate detection
  • One example made $1.1M through this method

• Legitimate Diamond Business:

  • Convert emotional investment into actual business
  • Use raised funds to start real diamond company
  • Leverage existing skills in relationship building
  • Focus on Facebook ad manager instead of Tinder

• Strategic Marriage Approach:

  • Target wealthy individuals instead of taking loans
  • Build trust through relationship
  • Avoid prenup agreements
  • More sustainable long-term strategy

• Asset Management:

  • Diversify acquired funds
  • Invest in crypto
  • Purchase real estate
  • Avoid spending exclusively on luxury lifestyle items

The speakers emphasize that converting the scheme into legitimate business operations would have been more sustainable and potentially more profitable than the original fraud approach.
