Tinder cheat row

-

DATING app Tinder’s founders claim they have been cheated out of billions of dollars.

Ten current and former staff – including Tinder founders Sean Rad, Justin Mateen and Jonathan Badeen – are suing its parent companies for £1.75bn.

They claim IAC and subsidiary Match Group deliberate­ly undervalue­d the app to avoid paying them.

Their lawyer, Orin Snyder, said: ‘ The evidence is overwhelmi­ng that the defendants lied, bullied, and violated their contractua­l duties, stealing billions of dollars.’ IAC and Match pledged to fight the ‘meritless’ claim.
