Falling for a scammer posing as a romantic interest? It happens more often than you’d think—and not just to the naïve. Even the most seasoned dating app users can get caught in a web of sweet talk and stolen valor.

She shares how scammers often hide behind fake badges, ranks, and uniforms —and how to spot the red flags before your heart (and bank account) takes a hit. Plus, a real-life cautionary tale of a lonely heart.
