Romance Scam: When Love Becomes a Financial Trap

Fake romantic relationships on the internet often end with financial losses. How to protect yourself.

Romance scam is particularly insidious: The perpetrators build an emotional bond over weeks or months before asking for money.

How a Romance Scam Works

  • Initial contact through dating apps or social media
  • Intensive communication, declarations of love
  • Profile pictures are stolen
  • Meetings are repeatedly postponed
  • Then comes the request for money

Protect Yourself

Use our reverse image search to check profile pictures. Never transfer money to people you don't know personally.
