What are romance scams?

A romance scam is a con where a fraudster fakes romantic interest to manipulate you into sending money. It usually starts on a dating app or social media, builds fast, and ends with requests for money — often for an 'emergency' or an 'investment'.

Common types

The classic romance scam asks for money directly. Pig-butchering adds an investment angle, steering you into a fake trading platform. There are also military-romance, identity-theft and money-mule variants, each with the same goal: extract money.

How we investigate

We document the full history of the relationship and the payments, identify the accounts that received your money, and trace them through banks and exchanges. We never contact the scammer — we pursue the money trail.
