ROMANCE SCAM: A financial romance scam is a deceitful scheme where a scammer establishes a romantic connection with someone, often online, with the intention of exploiting their emotions to extract money. These scammers typically create elaborate personas and engage in prolonged conversations to gain the trust of their victims.

Once a strong emotional bond is formed, they fabricate stories of financial distress, medical emergencies, or other urgent situations, coercing the victim into sending them money. The scammer's ultimate goal is to manipulate the victim's feelings, leading them to willingly provide financial assistance. These scams can be emotionally devastating and financially ruinous for victims, highlighting the importance of skepticism and caution when forming online relationships.

Common in romance scams, manipulators try to gain access to your personal information. They might use stories of financial hardships or emergencies to evoke sympathy and encourage monetary assistance. In some cases, they might even attempt to infect devices with malware to access sensitive data. Vigilance is crucial, as recognizing the signs of suspicious behavior and never sharing personal information with strangers online can help protect against falling prey to these heartless scams.

FTC: What to know about romance scams
https://consumer.ftc.gov/articles/wha...

If you or a loved one is involved in a romance scam, we highly suggest that you discontinue your correspondence with this person and to not give this person anymore money! They are not who they say they are, and have their own intentions for the relationship. Additionally, for lost money, we highly recommend you file a police report with your local police department (you have a right to have them file even if they tell you there isn’t anything that they can do) and also report it to the FBI through the IC3. By reporting it, it brings awareness and also adds ‘footprints’ attached to the scammer. If someone else has commonalities with their case, it could help stop the person behind the fake photos. I’d like to invite you to join our closed and private discussion group on facebook. There are tools and tips that are helpful in educating yourself, knowing what to look for, and keeping yourself safe online.

SUGGESTED NEXT STEPS:
- CONTACT ANY BANK OR FINANCIAL INSTITUTION FROM WHERE THE FUNDS HAVE BEEN SENT (EX. WESTERN UNION, PAYPAL, WELLS FARGO…)
- REPORT TO THE FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION
https://www.ftc.gov/
- WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO REACH OUT TO ONE OF THE THREE CREDIT BUREAUS AND REQUEST A FRAUD ALERT (TRANSUNION, EXPERIAN, OR EQUIFAX)
- IN ADDITION, YOU MAY ASK TO FREEZE CREDIT DUE TO FRAUD
- CLOSE ALL FRAUD ACCOUNTS, AND/OR ANY ACCOUNT THAT ACCESS WAS GIVEN
- NEXT, FILE A POLICE REPORT WITH YOUR LOCAL AUTHORITIES
- CONTACT THE IRS
- FILE A REPORT WITH THE FBI (Ic3.gov)
