love scam
Romance scams, also known as dating scams, catfishing, or love-bait scams, are an increasingly common type of fraud in which someone pretends to be in a relationship with you to gain your trust and steal your money.
These scams often start on online dating apps like Tinder, Hinge, or Plenty of Fish, or on social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram. Scammers typically use fake profiles, sometimes stealing photos or impersonating celebrities, and send friendly or flirtatious messages to initiate a conversation. Once a connection is established, they quickly build an emotional bond: they send frequent messages, compliment you, and even discuss future plans.
Their goal is to gain your trust so they can ask you for money with made-up excuses. These requests are usually related to emotional or urgent matters, such as family emergencies, travel problems, frozen bank accounts, or promising investment opportunities. Whether the pressure is subtle or intense, the ultimate goal is always financial gain: causing emotional distress and financial hardship to the victim.
Common Types of Romance Scams
Romance Bait (also known as "Massacre")
Scammers first establish an emotional connection with the victim and then gradually convince them to invest. Once scammed, they disappear without a trace. Scammers call it "massacre," but we prefer "love bait" because it's easier to pin the blame.
Celebrity Romance Scams
In these scams, scammers impersonate celebrities, using fake or secret accounts. They may send friendly messages to their followers before gradually asking for money, usually under the pretext of being unable to access the account or needing emergency personal assistance.
Military, Oil, or Corporate Scams
These scams involve scammers pretending to be professionals stranded abroad, in the military, on oil rigs, or in high-level corporate positions. They may initially appear trustworthy, but over time, they claim to need help with travel, paperwork, or urgent financial matters.
