Abstract: A method and apparatus for verifying persons' profiles that reside within the databases of online dating, location-based and social networking sites, platforms and applications. The method includes an interface for inputting and modifying settings, including inviting selected contacts, transmitting data about the individual whom the user will be meeting, the scheduled date, time and location for the meeting, and messaging delivered at requested times and intervals. Said user also may auto-transmit pre-set messages at determined times, visually record a meeting for real-time delivery to selected contacts, and utilize a Blue-tooth-enabled device to activate a distress signal and messaging via his or her mobile communication device, as well as transmitting pre-created messages to contacts that reside on directories or support workers. The invention also facilitates utilizing nearby user contacts, as a peer-to-peer buddy network, to render aid and to escalate security measures wherein the user may be in distress.
