Arnaques sentimentales : signes et conseils de prévention
Romance scams involve fraudsters building emotional relationships with victims and then requesting money, often in cryptocurrency. Recognizing the signs and taking preventive steps can protect you from both financial and emotional harm.
Common Signs
The person avoids video calls or meeting in person, has a profile that seems too perfect, quickly declares love, and soon has a “crisis” that requires money. They may ask you to send crypto or use a specific platform.
Prevention Tips
Never send money or crypto to someone you have not met in person. Be skeptical of requests for financial help. Reverse-image search profile photos. Talk to friends or family before sending large sums.
