    Yep, been reading many stories of catfishing on internet date groups. Just mean. So many seeking a person for time and conversation maybe a spark. Gave up internet groups totally. At least in person you can feel the vibe maybe a spark of infatuation.

      If someone is so lonely that they will be talking for hours to strangers on a computer, it’s a sure sign they need to get out and make some real life friends, don’t you think? 🐡

      @@leigh310 Anyone can fall victim to a scam. I have watched people who hunt down scammers for a living get scammed. That's why it's so important for videos like this for education purposes, and to maintain a healthy level of skepticism for anyone and anything new that comes into our lives. Especially those that want to get close to us or that play off of our emotions. I hope you are/were able to recover and move forward from this.

    I'm not about to post my very unphotogenic face on social media, but if I did I have all my money tied up in vet bills for my 2 aged cats. If you stay off social media, I think you are relatively safe from romance scammers.

    I just joined at dating site, OurTime, and already getting the sense of iffyness! I initiated a conversation with one guy whose profile was very witty. Just thanking him for the giggles and his wit. His only reply was thanks for reading it and would you like to meet. I didn't reply as i really expected a little bit of back and forth wit!
    Another guy initiated the messaging. I replied with, "why no pictures?" He made a LONG list of excuses and proceeded to ask for my number or email. Not.
    Another guy, after exchanging a few short messages via site, gave me his number. I replied with a thanks and will consider. Minutes later ALL MESSAGES were deleted. I'm curious to know how that is done😂 because I'd like to do that myself.
    I subscribed for only a month. I think that will be enough for me.

      I’m sorry it’s not working out for you right away. 😏 There are definitely techniques, guidelines and norms that are brought to mind around maneuvering around the apps and sites. Most of what you described has legitimate rationale behind it. Sounds like maybe you could use a little dating app coaching! 😉 Hopefully your profile is not calling out to people you would want to avoid. Be safe!!

      Money!! 1.3 BILLION dollars last year. And they are willing to play the long game to get it. In many forms.
      That is not to say that there have not been scammers, typically here in the United States, as opposed to abroad, who are very lonely people and create a false persona with fake photos, to attract an online only romance. But this is not nearly as common. Also exposed by not being willing to meet you within a week!
