Scammers on dating sites are increasingly using the images of "romantic professions" - military, doctors and journalists. This is stated in the materials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia.
According to the agency, attackers quickly make trusted contact: after a few days of communication, they confess their sympathy or even "love." This approach helps to create an emotional attachment in the victim and reduce the criticality of perception.
The interlocutor will more often be the owner of a romantic profession. Military, doctors, journalists - all this is a reason for a touching story
Another common scenario is the image of a "successful businessman." After confessing their feelings, scammers offer free training in an investment strategy that supposedly made them "crypto-millionaires." In fact, the scheme turns out to be a scam, and the invested money disappears.
The number of online dating is growing, and with it the number of scams is increasing. For Russians, the risk of losing not only money, but also personal data is becoming increasingly relevant. Understanding typical schemes helps to recognize deception in time and protect yourself.
