Dad has launched his own private investigation agency to catch out fake profiles on dating websites

A lovelorn dad has launched his own private investigation agency to catch out fake profiles on dating websites.

Andy Bartram set up Vet Your Date earlier this month to stop singletons from being catfished by fake profiles or scammers.

The former police worker charges £20 to search details of any Tinder or Bumble match and put together a report for his customer - in a bid to weed out any traps.
