XFun Launches Next-Gen Verification: Cuts Scams by 70%, Targets AI "Catfishing" Crisis

Enhanced Safety System and "Zero-Pressure' Social Design Attract 150% Surge in Verified Users. 

NEW YORK, Sept. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- XFun, the premier platform for casual connections(FWB/NSA), today announces that its newly launched Verification 3.0 technology has fueled explosive growth, with verified users surging 150% in Q2 2025. The breakthrough system has driven authentic profiles to 99% of the community, setting a new safety benchmark for the casual dating industry.

This success has had unexpected ripple effects: internal reports reveal that even organized fraud groups have attempted to reach out to XFun after being shut out of the app.

"When fraudsters start asking for a way back in, you know you've closed the door effectively," said Justin Mao, Founder and CEO of XFun. "Verification 3.0 was built to end the era of bots and catfish in casual dating. The growth and feedback from our community show that people want connections that feel both real and safe."

I.  Next-Gen Verification: Bye Bots, Bye Catfish

With the growth of deepfake scams and AI-generated profiles online, XFun's Verification 3.0 introduces exclusive safeguards that combines multiple layers of advanced technology to ensure every user starts with trust:

Dynamic Motion Scanning – Users are asked to perform randomized actions (e.g., 'Smile and Blink twice) during ID checks, defeating deepfakes and static image uploads.

Behavioral AI Monitoring – In-chat algorithms flag high-risk contents, ranging from financial requests to suspicious behavior (e.g., send money, offline invites, or move to Whatsapp), with 99.2% accuracy. Once detected, the system provides real-time alerts while allowing users to enhance their awareness of fraud during conversation.

"Security doesn't have to kill the vibe," Justin added. "It should empower users to connect with relax and safety."

Results Speak Louder:

-88% of users indicated that their trust in the app has increased, calling it "noticeably safer" (Q2 2025 survey)

-Female user growth has surged 40%, with 94% citing safety as their top priority in choosing a social app
