      @MrWarrenRB 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      Well its online dating, so most of the best matches will be "far away on a trip." That's why the scam works. If they could find hot men down the street, they wouldn't be online.

    I used to get so many scammers trying to chat on Words with Friends. Like geez, how many men are there working over seas, who lost their wife, and have a 10 year old daughter? One said he was a surgeon employed by a drilling company. He got mad when I asked why a drilling company needed a surgeon. I told one I was Marcia Brady living in California. Told him the whole story of my childhood-and he had no clue. It’s so easy to scam the scammer when they claim to be American but aren’t.

      There are plenty of red flags even before they ask for money. They are all over the dating sites -- and they are getting better, with the ability to run stuff through an AI text corrector -- helps them sound more normal.

    My 92 year old grandma fell for one of these a few years back. She was defrauded out of $15k by someone claiming to be a retired US Army general. It got so close to being far worse though. The scam had gotten to the point where the scammer proposed marriage to her and wanted to move her to "Kentucky" to be with him she just had to sell her house and send him the money. My uncle knew something was up. She was being very secretive and so one day he showed up unannounced and made her tell him the whole thing. These people are evil.

    you don't have to be lonely or desperate to get scammed. thieves can also target a confident, kind loving person and manipulate them for months build up what feels like a real relationship. my advice to all types of people is DON'T USE DATING APPS.
    enrich your life. meet people the old fashioned way. be friendly. and remember even someone you meet in person can turn out to be an abuser. don't rush in. love yourself. enjoy your peace and harmony. make your life beautiful. being single is a beautiful thing.

      I have a friend that got taken for three million Australian dollars , it was a inheritance scam . recently he sold his beautiful 4 wheel drive and sent them that money as well . He doesn't hear from them now as they released that was the last thing they could squeeze out of him . they scammed him over 3 years . They came on his face book page . it started as a bit of a romance thing . He was about 75 at the time and she was 34 . As if !!!!

    Judging them won't help because you can be sure that these people who got catfished in a way, they are already hating and blaming themselves so much !
    Loneliness makes us vulnerable, we forget almost all common sense or "rules of caution and safety" just in order to not be lonely anymore ; so by all means, if so many people get caught into these traps it's not just coincidental, a real societal issue lays there.

This just doesn't happen overnight. Some of these scams go on for a long time and the longer it goes the harder it is to not believe what is actually happening. They think it is real love but in reality it isn't. It is unfortunate that they are not aware that they are being scammed until it is too late. Dr. Phil has many many episodes on this exact topic. This is a very well done episode and it needs to have more attention. If you know anyone that is in an LDR (long distance relationship) then maybe share this video with them so they are made aware.

    When we are at the lowest, lonely, and miserable times, it's the best time for these scammers to get to us. Please don't shame other people's vulnerabilities because they are blinded by these scammers who are doing their best to fill in our gaps that no one in the real life actually cares to make us believe that we are loved at some point in life. Not everyone is awareness enough to realize these scammers' hacks they are using our weakness to get us. Plus, I strongly believe once we blindly believe the scammers, they use the black magic to achieve their goal. It's not a joke until you experience it. Black magic is no jokes and it's very sad to see how many vulnerable people are being scammed and putting themselves through the worst. This should be shared to everyone because at some point in our life, we're not the smartest to recognize certain things because of these scammers using the best techniques to scam us. I really appreciate you taking the time to make this documentary, it shows a lot that these scammers are the worst and FR i strongly believe in karma comes back to them.

And even now with AI becoming huge I would even be cautious about video calls. Look up deepfake and you will be shocked at what they can do now. The best way to know for sure is to meet in person. Good luck!

      @@christinavaldez6276 Just another tactic to keep them on the hook. Be prepared for last minute cancellation or a request for money. Hopefully there has not been too much money that has been spent/lost already. Just use your common sense. In this world of social media where everyone has a smart phone, tablet, or a laptop with a camera and are recording everything putting it on TikTok, Instagram, FaceBook, Snapchat and TH-cam I find it really hard to believe that she is the only one with a phone that messes up EVERY TIME. She can't just use someone else's (brother, sister, friend) device just to make a quick video call?? Sounds fishy to me. I will be curious to know what happens on March 28.

    It may sounds cruel, but it happens not only because these women were desperate, but also because they didn't realize that men who are 8 or 10 can't be interested in older women who are 2. If they are to look for men who are 2, they would end up in much happier relations.
