Users of a right wing dating app founded by former Trump staffers have reported that they’re receiving calls from the FBI after answering one particular question in their dating profiles.
The app in question – ‘The Right Stuff’ – has already been dubbed a failure after next to no women signed up and the app’s invite-only system made it almost impossible to join.
But now, a third complaint is emerging from users – that answering a profile prompt question that asked “January 6 was …” has led to them being contacted by law enforcement.
The date in question was the same day in 2021 when Trump supporters stormed the US Capital following his presidential election defeat.
A quick scroll through the reviews in the app store reveal several comments complaining of having a phone call from the FBI shortly after filling out the profile.
“App asks about January 6th … I said I was there because I was, I’m a patriot … I get a call from an FBI agent the SAME DAY????,” reads one review.
“Seriously, what stunt are they trying to pull? Whoever developed this has to be deepstate setting us up … I came here to find love, not a damn warrant.”
Another wrote, “I answered the question about January 6th honestly and the next day I had two police officers at my door telling me that they got a call alleging that I was involved in domestic terrorism???
“Do not use this app unless you want to be harassed by left-wing fascists.”
Yet another commented, “I have a friend who worked as a coder on this app and he showed me proof that the FBI added backdoor access.”
Overall, the app is only sitting at a 2.5 star rating in the Apple store, with a large majority of the comments complaining about the lack of women.
