US Embassy warns Americans not to use dating apps in Colombia after eight 'suspicious deaths'
Rep. Cory Mills, R-Fla., sits down with'FOX & Friends Weekend' to discuss Ukraine funding, Biden's border policies and attacks on U.S. bases in the Middle East. The U.S. Embassy in Bogota, Colombia, is warning Americans traveling to the country not to use dating apps after eight "suspicious deaths" of private U.S. citizens. According to the embassy, the deaths -- potentially involuntary drug overdoes or suspected homicides -- took place in Medellin between November 1 and December 31, 2023. "Over the last year, the Embassy has seen an increase in reports of incidents involving the use of online dating applications to lure victims, typically foreigners, for robbery by force or using sedatives to drug and rob individuals," the embassy said. The Embassy said it regularly receives reports of such incidents occurring in major cities, like Medellin, Cartagena, and Bogota.
