Scammers will use terms of endearment like "honey", "love", "queen" so they don't have to keep track of the victim's name

[@alextakacs768]

Best advice!! IF IT LOOKS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE!! IT SURE IS!!! RUN!!

[@eugeniayabrudy4286]

All women, and men, should see this video. Everything you say I have experienced. Thankfully, I sent them NO money. They wasted their time. And sadly, I also lost mine

[@rowendaseijner1211]

You forgot to say one thing. If a scammer isn't getting any money from you, then he's asking for sexy or nude photos of you. You should never do this!!! The best thing you can do is block them!! Don't act on it and block the scammer!!!

[@Businessecomm.Ai1]

He wants to see if you're not a man or a scammer also.

[@rowendaseijner1211]

@@Businessecomm.Ai1 No, scammers never video call you. The nude pics are for them to black mail you with by sending it your friends if you don't pay!

[@Gurra88]

@@Businessecomm.Ai1 I'd say it's because they'd want to extort you. If you hypothetically speaking sent compromising photos of yourself the scammer would ask you to send money or they'd send them to all your contacts. That's why you should never send that to anyone.

[@ZxSpectrumplus]

@@Businessecomm.Ai1 True. Got a scammer send me a msg and gives me "her" no to contact..on the first msg. I asked "her" to show me her sexy photo first and tell "her" i am the Prince of Nigeria. 😆

[@sheelfjohnson]

They do this so they can blackmail you by threatening to send your pictures to family members, your workplace, etc.

[@kimlibera663]

Another red flag is that all the men claim their widows & their FB profile is too fresh. Everyone is on FB. But a fresh profile with no activity on it is a setup.

[@TheHamdog1]

It’s sad because nowadays 95 percent of these dating apps is now scammers just remember everyone if it’s to good to be tru it probably is

[@observingsystem]

Yeah, they just made it even more difficult for people to actually find someone as well. They're not just taking people's money, they're ruining lives and basically the world, because in the end everybody's going to either be a scammer or someone that's too distrustful after being scammed to still be able to trust someone.

[@Williamslockwood]

Great work *Briskdeft* ! - so glad you are out there fighting these lowlifes. We need to do all we can to spare the elderly and the general public from these despicable scammers! Kudos to YOU!! You deserve the Nobel prize for keeping us safe big up brother ☮️!

[@tullochgorum6323]

The other point is to keep your ego in check. I've just watched a catfish video where a dowdy lady in late middle-age was absolutely convinced she was in a relationship with a much younger A-List film star, who was scamming money off her for his "charity". Within minutes of joining my first dating site I was approached by a dazzlingly beautiful professional less than half my age who gushed about how she preferred older men. I'm humble enough to know she was entirely out of my league. Some quick googling showed that the scammer had stolen someone's profile. I played them along for a little to see how they operate and sure enough "she" was asking for money within days. A bit of detective work traced the origin of the request to Lagos...

[@juanitahardy8583]

As soon as they ask you to change social platforms run run run..

[@eugeniayabrudy4286]

I have experience with these scammers as you explain. They seemed perfect, but the moment they asked me for money, that was it for me. I told them that I would not give any money to anyone I did not know and they begged me and begged me. But I was not stupid or desperate for them, as it happens to other people. I just cut them off and blocked them from further contacting me. Sadly, many people let themselves fall and pay dearly for the consequences.

[@lmusima3275]

I say always, if they can’t call or video chat, then how are they able to message you for hours on end? I challenged one scammer for fun asking him so many questions about his tsp called technical issues with calling to the point that they became agitated.

[@hajnalkazrinyi7694]

It happened to me too, I told him I don’t have disposable income, he said I am not a caring person 😂

[@Gurra88]

They say anyone can fall or it. I'm not sure about that since scammers are very careless. They always use photos of these super models and start love bombing you. I'm not narcissistic enough to believe a 10/10 woman saw me and just had to dm me. If that happens I just block them. Even if we did chat "she" would have mysterious technical difficulties and be unable to do a call and conjure up some sob story about being broke and having no food.

[@sherrybedwell1137]

Exactly I have had the same happen to me they love bomb until you refuse to send them money then they will get upset and tell you that you don't care about them .I didn't fall for it either but some people do

One of the biggest reasons people catfish is for financial gain. It's about something other than enjoying someone's company. Some catfishers start off planning to con their victims, while others might realize they can profit from a fabricated relationship.

[@Xanaphia]

I wish my mom would listen! The scammer has her believing she's going to be a millionaire's wife when he gets back from Somalia but stuck there as a traveling doctor under a contract. Yet he needs money for a visa, was in prison for drug smuggling, and whatever nonsense stories she has been given and believes.

[@MrMockingbird1313]

Hey Matthew, An excellent video. May I add a small item? Scammers will often have online accounts. I'm familar with FaceBook. Anyway, their profiles have almost NOTHING on them. By contrast, almost anyone who is normal will have kids, friends, neighbors, coworkers and extended family members. If someone wants to be your friend and doesn't have any pictures of their pets or a garden plants or a vaction spot, they are a phony. If they do not say the names of schools they attended or the town where they grew up, they're a phony. For example, I am FB friends with a famous Hollywood starlet. On her semi-restricted page she tells the name of the ballet school she attended at age 9. She gives a shout out to some of her old teachers in high school. This is normal behavior. Phonies only operate in a vacuum.

[@angiemcgee2156]

A lot of them have fake pictures with pets for emotional blackmail to get more “clients” if they have enough stolen pictures they create a whole fake life that’s not theirs. They have have fake pictures with pets, children, grandchildren, etc. it’s all manipulation

[@Darkgaiarising]

Never give a stranger money, period. The only red flag really is asking for money. I only give money to blood relatives (not distant cousins twice removed relatives), but immediate family only.

[@jocelynharris-fx8ho]

Common sense lesson to be learned here; don't go online or even go on reality shows looking for love. True love takes time, sometimes many years. Going online, a person can manipulate the situation and "mold" themselves, so that they appear to be the " person of your dreams". I'm old enough to remember the t.v. show, "The Dating Game". Everyone thought it was a fun entertaining way to find a date, until it was discovered that one of the contestant/ bachelors was a serial killer..🥺😱. As a minister, I believe that the best way to find love is to live your life; do volunteer work, help out at your place of worship, or do other humanitarian efforts and perhaps someone who shares your passion and enthusiasm may cross your path but more often than not, love shows up when you're NOT looking for it.

[@annchurchill2638]

I would not sue a dating site, but I do Twitter and a follower asked if we could do Google chat. Big mistake on my;part. This guy did every single manipulative thing until I set traps for him and finally got rid of him.This was the second military guy who was using someone else identity.Thyeare either on an oil rig, a captain of a ship, or he's in Geneva.The most unsual one was pretedning to be Elon Musk, and it turned out to be from Nigeria.
