Happy February: avoid scams in the month of romance Romance scams are hot and it's not about love -- it's about money. In one example, a military romance scam, the bad guy frequently adopts the online persona of an actual soldier - a romantic figure to some. Scammers operate on all social media sites like Facebook, or dating and chat sites, to study their marks and learn what they like. Although such scams can happen in real life, it's much easier online, where scammers can steal photos of real soldiers, learn about experiences to repeat, and have the convenient excuse of being deployed. Widows and recently divorced women in their 40s and 50s are the most frequent targets for scammers to love bomb and entertain with frequent emails and photos. Anytime an online acquaintance asks for money, it is a bad sign. Requests for money for food, housing, plane tickets, leave requests, early retirement, medical treatment or impoverished loved ones are nearly always scam requests. The "soldier" is not in need, don't send anything and don't give away personal information. This story was posted on 2023-02-01 09:51:45
