​
What is romance fraud
Romance fraud (dating scam) is a form of psychological and financial fraud. The scammer:
creates a false image or profile

builds trust and an emotional connection

manipulates the victim to obtain money, valuables or data

often uses fabricated stories about illnesses, travel, business or family problems

This can be both local (Ukraine) and international - especially through dating sites from abroad.

Signs of romantic fraud
You can recognize a scammer by a number of signals:
Quick declaration of love - excessive emotionality in the early stages of dating.

Refusals from meetings and video calls - frequent excuses, no desire to meet.

Requests for financial assistance - loan, payment for treatment, travel or other urgent needs.

Complex and dramatic stories - illnesses, accidents, problems at work or in the family.

Rapid isolation from friends and family - the scammer seeks to gain complete control.

Information discrepancies - inconsistent documents, discrepancies in photos and data.

If several points coincide, you should contact professionals for verification.

Examples of typical cases
International fraud: a client from Ukraine met a supposedly businessman from the USA on a dating site. After requesting money for treatment and travel, we established his real identity and stopped the financial losses.

Local fraudster: a man on a dating site was deceiving money under the guise of a loan. We established his address and transferred the materials to the police.

Fake accounts: several accounts of one person created the illusion of numerous acquaintances. The investigation allowed us to uncover a fraudulent scheme.
