[QUOTE="AnyExchange, post: 210852, member: 42864"] [img]https://anyexchange.best/wp-content/uploads/topic-13.png[/img] [b]Lost $200 thousand in BTC: a British man became a victim of fraud on a dating site[/b] A resident of the UK lost 150 thousand pounds (about $200 thousand) after he transferred money to a fraudulent trading platform on the advice of a friend. [b]Tom (fake name) started chatting with a girl on a dating site.[/b] The fraudster, who introduced herself as Jiao from Hong Kong, pretended to be a successful investor. Winning the victim's trust, she talked about her future move to the UK and her desire to earn money on cryptocurrency together with Tom. [b]After a few days of communication, Jiao talked to the man about investments. [/b]The girl began to convince Tom that she had some insider information that would help them get rich quickly. She sent a link to the mobile application of a fraudulent trading platform. [b]Tom made several small investments and made a profit each time.[/b] "This whole situation seemed suspicious to me. But over time, I really believed that I had met someone with insider information." Jiao encouraged Tom to keep investing. She said that if he doesn't act quickly, the profit will be lost. [b]In the end, the man transferred 150 thousand pounds in bitcoins to the site. Immediately after that, all his money disappeared from the platform's wallet.[/b] When Tom turned to the girl for help, Jiao said she was leaving to take care of an ill relative in Australia. And after that, she stopped answering his messages. [b]This situation is a vivid example of "romance fraud."[/b] The attacker registers a fake account on a dating site, after which he searches for the most vulnerable to manipulation victim. He does not disclose his intentions immediately, at first, without affecting the issue of finance or investment in any way. When the minimum trust is won, the fraudster will start begging for money for various reasons. This is not necessarily something related to investing or trading. He can put pressure on pity, begging for money for an operation or telling that he wants to pay a visit to the victim and ask to pay for his tickets. [b]The National Fraud Intelligence Bureau urges us to be especially careful when dating online. [/b] Do not tell about your financial situation and never send money to the interlocutor in the dating apps. Remember that the funds sent cannot be returned. Do not believe the promises of "incredible" profits. Do not continue to communicate if someone is trying to force you to transfer money somewhere. [b]The main sign of fraud is that the relationship develops too fast.[/b] Your friend may declare his love in a few days or even offer to marry. [b]Scammers often create an account of a non-existent person.[/b] If the interlocutor makes you suspicious, it is worth checking his profile. Browse through the photos and verify their authenticity with a reverse search. If the image was taken from someone else's account or downloaded somewhere on the Internet, then using such a search, it will be possible to find its origin. Also, ask your friend to send a selfie or invite him to talk in a video chat. The fraudster will most likely refuse for fear of being revealed. [b]Also, excessive interest in your personal information(employment, financial and marital status, investment experience, etc.) may be a bad sign. [/b] As a rule, the fraudster answers counter-questions about himself concisely or avoid the answer [/QUOTE]
