In the recent months, I have worked with women to help them spot an online dating scam—or what some people call a “romance scam.”
According to the FTC, a romance scam, is “when a person gets tricked into believing they’re in a romantic relationship with someone they met online.”
In fact, their other half is a cybercriminal using a fake identity to gain enough of their victim’s trust to ask — or blackmail — them for money.
Sounds completely yucky, right? Who wants to put themselves in a position to even be scammed? 
The good news is that no one and I mean no one has to be scammed when they are informed, and they know what to look for. 
You can completely avoid these men online. The women I have coached who have met men online for serious relationships have done that very thing and no one has been duped. 
In today’s episode, I’m going to tell you what to look  for so that you can feel empowered and confident so you don’t have to be afraid of being scammed.
