Cameo Flounders with Ms. Rachel Fundraiser: Fans Disappointed with Credits Instead of Videos

Ms Rachel Cameo
Ms. Rachel isn’t a household name, but if you spend a lot of time with toddlers, she might as well be a rockstar. Ms. Rachel – a music teacher named Rachel Accurso – decided to use her platform for good. And for a full-time content creator and graduate student in early childhood education, that’s not much time to record 500 personalized videos. However, Cameo was aware of Ms. Rachel’s highly popular fundraiser, since Cameo posted about it on X. Given that Ms Rachel intended to fulfill her Cameo requests, it’s unclear why Cameo didn’t grant her additional time to do so in the first place, rather than refunding buyers.

Tinder Announces Rollout of ID Verification in United States, United Kingdom, Brazil, and Mexico

Tinder Icon Ios
Tinder is expanding its identify verification program to users in the U.S., U.K., Brazil and Mexico, the company announced on Tuesday. The company found that users who completed the ID Verification option saw a 67% increase in matches than those not verified. Tinder now says that users who only complete the app’s Photo Verification will now receive a blue camera icon badge, while users who only complete the ID Verification will receive a blue ID icon badge. Users who complete both the ID Verification and Photo Verification will receive a blue checkmark. It makes sense for Tinder to expand ID verification to more countries, especially as AI scams and romance scams are on the rise.
