As soon as sam altman hears about this he will make a proposal about replacing scam humans with ai. Which in itself is better than trafficking humans i suppose.

Correct, I did some research into this, while the initial match is automated, you're connected with someone likely under duress, Tinder/Match do not care about this at all (in my present country its 80%+ profiles that are evidently human trafficking and extortion). After asking what they intend to do about the horrific rights violations they're profiting off, they said, "we don't care" literally.

There is also the collateral, the profiles/photos they steal are of real people, which may or may not end up in real life ramifications for them. It used to be entirely generic Asians (Orient, not SE, as they're more attractive to the west apparently) - but these days they've upped the game and use region specific photos (ie; in my case, Slavic origin)

Yup, the verification works against regular users and in favour of automation. But that's a good business model for them, without impossibly attractive potential matches nobody would pay for anything, so they have no financial desire to stop it.
