Unfortunately scammers prey on our hopes of finding romance on online apps and websites. ‘Catfishing’ is when scammers use a fake identity and photos to lure us in, developing an online relationship over many weeks or even months and declaring love yet never being willing to meet or talk on the phone or a live video call… and then the crunch – a request for money. How to avoid finding yourself on that hook? Listen to our podcast with Tom Chapman from Consumer Protection for all the warning signs, and don’t be afraid to report being scammed – it could help others avoid the same thing happening.
