Romance Scam: deceptive or digital love?

Do you know how to recognise a Romance Scam?

Be careful when engaging in an online relationship with unknown people. The romance scam is a Social Engineering technique in which an attacker tries to contact you via social networks, dating sites or e-mail, pretending to create a “digital friendship” relationship. Cautiously, after gaining your trust, the scammer will ask you for money, gifts or your credit card information, using deceptive stories and excuses.

Find out how to avoid this scam:

  1. Check the identity: search for the name and profile pictures of the person requesting a friendship on a search engine, verifying that there are no reports from other users.
  2. Don't trust people who ask you for money: be suspicious of anyone who makes persistent demands, especially if they use heart-wrenching or urgent stories.
  3. Pay attention to details: be aware of grammatical errors, discrepancies in the stories told and excuses used, such as the webcam that never works.
  4. Report: if you suspect you are the victim of a scam, report the incident to the appropriate authorities immediately.
  5. Protect your data: if you have accidentally provided personal information or bank details, contact the relevant platform immediately to block any transactions.
