So proud of this first woman for not taking that scumbag"s crap! Wish more of these women would stand up for themselves & Block these creeps! Kudos Doll.
I'm always fascinated to hear about people's experiences with scammers. It takes a lot of courage to come forward like this, and I'm sorry that the first two victims got so badly mistreated by callous fraudsters. Fortunately for the third lady she was already aware of their tactics and lies. It demonstrates how useful it is to have channels like yours which spread awareness.
Do you find that with all these stories you read out and all the scams you deal with that the problem is getting better or worse? Are people waking up? Love your work William and Anne ❤
Thank you!. I find it's getting worse even though romance scams are talked about all the time. With new technology and advances in apps etc, the scammers have the upper hand to fool people.
If the woman in the first story had been watching your channel or Romance Scammers and Online Scams, she would have realized instantly that every word he wrote her in the beginning was following a typical scam script to the T. The scammer was practically shouting to her that he was a user/liar/piece of garbage romance scammer and she would have run screaming into the night!
These story are all the same. They are allways divorced or widowers. They are a single parent with high paying jobs and allways work abroad. They are never a teacher, mechanic, dentist, policeofficer or whatever. They quickly need your assistance due to some banking problem. It is allways a sob story. But one thing is constant, they want money and you will never meet.
I never will understand why send someone. A complete stranger thousands of dollars. If you never meet in person. remember when we were young? we were taught strangers can be dangerous & careful. Should be too as growing up. Use your mind & not your heart,
Very brave stories. I’ve noticed that the scammers always start with, I saw your comment. It was funny or nice etc. another red flag. Thx for all u do. ❤️👏🏻✌️
If a man ever accused me of chatting to another man, whether or not he was 100% legitimate REAL and I knew him in real life, I would block and remove! A major warning sign of an abusive and unfaithful man! If a man (or woman!) accuses you of being unfaithful, it's likely that they are also being unfaithful. Also the shouting, cursing, and obscene language? In no circumstances is it acceptable. People need to be aware of their value in general. These are common strategies used by scammers; if one paid great attention to these warning signs, many would not fall for the con.
If someone really cares about you and you've already told them that you work long shifts and need sleep, they will respect that and not call repeatedly in the middle of the night. The most recent one who tried to scam me was ready to marry me on day 2 but couldn't remember important details like me being diabetic, atheist, and having chronic pain issues. One time he even sent me a lengthy message about my beautiful brown eyes (they're blue, a light bright very obvious blue) and a bunch of crap that was the kind of stuff you'd say to someone you have been with, intimately, in person. I responded saying that he was obviously WAY more into me than I was into him since I did not know him and it'd be best if he just moved on. Then I blocked him.
Hi William I admire what you do and the advice you give about scammwrs . The stories are so sad these poor people getting ripped off they are so convincing with the people who they say they love. Keep up with all you do
It makes me sad when people say they won’t date again. I hope with time they will heal and try to find someone again but just me more careful in the future
Why wasn’t the money just sent to Anita instead of to the victim in the first case? Why does a person in Spain need two different people in America to handle their money?
They are always saying...."I was so exhausted that I gave in and gave him my account number...or "I was so tired I finally gave him my social security ...If your so exhausted wouldnt it be less exhausting to just say no .I mean it takes a minute to get out your checkbook and message your account number .......

The last lady was smart, she saw all the red flags, good for her!!
I like to hear the stories with the happy endings!
Thank you again for making these. They're helping
You can date online if you pay attention. My friends have had a lot of dates, and they only talk.with local men who they can meet in person.
You always seem to post when I have laundry to fold. It works out perfectly! ❤😊
Thanks William & Anne, always intresting listening to these cautionary stories. Regards Harry.

One scammer claimed to be a teacher and another one an interior decorator
I guess the script is addictive. Lesson: 3 exchanges, meet or move on. Don't give potential scammer TIME to get you hooked

Unfortunately,many of the victims don't show that level of common sense.
Had oil rig scammer express jealousy when I went to the American Legion for a gathering. 😮 He failed.😂
Jesus....no place is safe...
Can't even join a grief group.
They are everywhere.

Hi! Thank you for listening, appreciate you!
I know there are women who like "rebels" but still a man in his 50's who have spent 25 years in prison and woman in her 20's... There is a 🚩

I love this channel
STRANGERS. DON'T SEND STRANGERS MONEY!!
Love all the stories.. Usually the same
Oh Ruby, don't take your love to town. 🎶🎼🎵

The one thing scammers always say is that there wife passed away.
Some say they caught them cheating also
Thanks for the stories ❤

All these male widows with one daughter at a very fancy boarding school with dead or wives who run off
sad stories
Ruby and Esther 😂ok
Thanks
When you encounter an American working in a foreign country, move on. It’s sad how heartless these scammers are.
The 3rd person reminds me of the type of things I do😂😂😂
Ruby is probably a dude!
Yes more then likely and a mule picked up the money.🤬
Ruby was a man who scammed you.
Possibly a child
100% pretty sure it was a man.
Yup
Donald isn't a Spanish name its Scottish
Allways the same sob stories
