Match.com says she has no legal basis for her lawsuit.<\/p>\n<p>Mary Kay Beckman filed suit in U.S. District Court on Friday, accusing Match.com of failing to disclose the dangers of online dating.<\/p>\n<p>She said she&#8217;d known Wade Ridley only eight days when she broke up with him in September 2010. Four months later, he stabbed her 10 times. He later was charged with murdering a woman in Phoenix. He died in prison last year.<\/p>\n<p>Match.com said in a statement Monday that Beckman&#8217;s experience was horrible but the lawsuit is &#8220;absurd.&#8221; It said Beckman was a victim of a &#8220;sick, twisted&#8221; man with no known criminal record.<\/p>\n<p>Match.com, the world&#8217;s leading online dating and relationship company for over 15 years, markets itself as having gained &#8220;insight&#8221; into relationships from its millions of successful matches.<\/p>\n<p><iframe src='http:\/\/widget.newsinc.com\/single.html?WID=1&#038;VID=24266295&#038;freewheel=69016&#038;sitesection=csmonitor&#038;w=425&#038;h=266' height='266' width='425' scrolling='no' frameborder='0' marginwidth='0' marginheight='0'><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Right!
