A MAN has been robbed after he agreed to meet up with a man he met on a dating app.
Police say the man had his car, cash and a watch stolen after arranging to meet with a 19-year-old man from Ngunnawal via an online dating app in September.
Police arrested the 19-year-old, who was already on bail for other offences, yesterday (November 14) and he was charged with robbery.
Authorities are reminding people to “act carefully” when using online dating apps.
