Dating-related services are becoming increasingly popular in modern society, but their impact on users remains studied insufficiently. This article examines the peculiarities of criminal information impact on users of dating-related services. The relevance of the topic is due to the rapid development of technology and changes in social norms, which contribute to the formation of new patterns of behavior in the interpersonal relationships and facilitates the commission of crimes. The author analyzes how the information presented on dating-related platforms influences users' perceptions, decisions and choices to encourage them to commit crimes. Particular attention is paid to such aspects as the quality of information presented, manipulative technologies used in communication on the sites and in recommendation algorithms, as well as the influence of online dating-related services on the formation of ideals and expectations. The research identifies the key factors contributing to the successful interaction "user — user" and "user — online dating-related service". The author determines a number of ways of criminal influence and suggests the use of artificial intelligence algorithms in the activities of services to recognize and block content and information that could have a harmful effect on the human psyche and possibly encourage a person to commit crimes. The way to improve dating-related platforms considering information impact is proposed in the research. The article also discusses the positive and negative aspects of using Internet dating-related services.
