I was hit up on Grindr by someone who I started talking to, they expressed interest in meeting up and wanted to use a third party service for safely meeting up i.e. the idea is that both people sign up for an account on the website and a third party is aware that the two people are meeting at a certain time. This seemed like a reasonable service one might expect to exist and I went to the link. The initial site was meetpartnersononline.com They had both paid and free services, but they wanted you to enter your credit card to 'validate your identity'. I felt a little suspicious, but everything looked legit and the service seemed to make sense, so I put my debit card in. When I hit enter it took me to a different website entirely and told me I'd been given two trial subscriptions for two dating services that would hit my card in seven days unless I cancelled before hand. I immediately checked my debit card and saw I had been hit for two charges by two different companies for $39.99. One company was thyfmc.com and the other was trndgmng.com When I told the person I had been talking to who had sent me the link that I had just received two charges, he immediately blocked me. I tried to use the chat with a representative option on the meetpartnersonline.com website to try to get the charges reversed. The representative kept sending me to alternate pages claiming it was a cancellation page, but they didn't say they were cancellation pages, they seemed to be registration pages. I was trying to reenter the same information like the guy was telling me to do because he said it would log me into my account where I could reverse the charges. When I tried to do so it kept saying my card was already in the system/being declined and wouldn't let me do anything. The guy kept sending me to alternate pages, included an exact copy of the meetpartnersonline.com website that was lgbtqequalityalliance.com (I think they have even more copies of this website with different names) When it kept not letting me proceed, the guy told me to enter another credit card (on these pages he was claiming they were cancellation pages but were actually claiming to be registration pages. At that point I knew for sure it was a scam and stopped talking to him.

I met someone  and have ben texting for a few months, she has asked for money for her international bills as well as plane tickets and documents. I wasn't 100% sure if she was a scammer until my friend mentioned to me that one of his friends has fallen for something similar and lost more than $1000.00 which was never returned to him. This woman I met goes by the name of sara  Smith and is using the  phone number is 315-228-1517.

This scammer claims he is a U. S. Marine stationed at a U.S embassy  and has an 8 year old son who lives in Texas.  It started very innocent but quickly turned into him asking me daily for money.  I lost 2k before I caught on.

I have a series of authentic looking emails supposedly from Teekay Corp about being able to chat on the phone with one of their employees. The last email claims I need to send $795.00 before I am able to chat as I am not a family member. I have saved several photos of the supposed employee, complete name, position, etc. and all the emails from the company. It appears scammers are using this company to target unsuspectlng females.

I was contacted by Michael Rivhdad about being his "sugar baby" said he would send me 5,000 and all i had to pay was a 10.00 fee. After I sent the 10.00 He sent a screenshot showing he sent the 5,000 and now it needed ANOTHER 50.00 to be released. After me telling him NO for about 5 mins, he lowered it to 25.00. My dumb butt, sent it. After that, He told me that the IRS was requiring the other25.00 to release the funds, (I will be contacting them next). Now hes trying to convince me that until i make the other 25.00 payment, he wont be able to process any more payments or use his cashapp account. He works along side a Dianne Huckle.

My elderly mother was contacted on Facebook by someone stating to be a Dr. Richard Welsh from Kentucky who is now in Yemen working as a doctor through the military or through Doctors Without Borders. He says the children there are starving and he doesn't have any food and doesn't have clothes because the area he is in has been bombed. He gives her the impression he has to provide all of this himself and doesn't get any help from the organization he claims to be with. He said he was supposed to be done with his requirements there at the end of December which then moved to January and now we are in February. He always asks for gift cards like google play, steam cards, etc. My mother believes everything he tells her no matter how the family has tried to convince her it's a scam. She gives him all of her money. He also claims to have a daughter named Elizabeth Welsh who is going to school in London. I'm sure she has given him at least $20,000 if not more.

The scammer, Daniel, matched with me on Tinder. We moved the conversation to WhatsApp by his request. We talked for a few days and he mentioned trading cryptocurrency was one of his hobbies. He asked if I was interested in trading at all and I said not really and I wasn’t familiar with it. He said he can show me how to get started and then I would be trading on my own. On February 3rd he told me to download the Crypto.com Application and guided me in how to set up my account and add $200USD to it. He also sent me a link to a trading website at antexchange.top and instructed me on how to set up an account with them as well, stating that this website was where we would be doing the trading m. On February 4th he informed me that the market was good and that we should trade. He instructed me on how to purchase Tether coins (USDT) and then how to transfer them to the trading website. Once we completed that, he guided me through the trading process, telling me to buy in at 5 trading hands. About 15 minutes later he instructed me to close the transaction resulting in me making an additional $40USDT. He then instructed me on how to withdraw the money from the website wallet and transfer it back to the Crypto app. All was successful. On February 5th Daniel messaged me and said that he had been watching the market and that it was a good time to trade and that the projection for Monday and Tuesday would be even better. He coerced me into putting another $260USD into the Crypto.com App after I had told him I didn’t want to. He lead me through the process again on how to purchase Tether coins and how to transfer all that to the website wallet. He then instructed me to buy 15 trading hands. The transaction was closed maybe 20 or 30 minutes later and he stated I had made $2032USDT. I requested he help me transfer it back to my account but he didn’t respond. On February 6th I initiated the transfer from the website wallet to the crypto app wallet. When it didn’t process in the amount of time it did for the first transaction, I messaged him. He suggested I message customer support. They told me that my transaction volume was insufficient so the transfer could not be completed. I asked how to make it sufficient and they stated that I needed to trade two more times. I confront Daniel about it but his messaging is sparse and flighty. On February 7th he tells me we need to trade again to get my transaction volume up. I trade, again following his instructions, using the current balance in the website wallet. After trading is complete, he tells me I made $17,700 in profit and that it should be sufficient enough to transfer. He then instructed me to ask customer service to tell me about tax points and tax amounts. Customer service said that my taxes would be $2044USDT and that I must remit the tax to the currency wallet supervised by the IMF International Monetary Fund Administration before February 10th at 23:00 “New York Time”. Daniel then tells me we have to purchase $2044USD in Tether coin to pay the taxes to the website. I question the validity of the website based on this information and he becomes angry.

Approached on Instagram about someone wanting to be my sugar momma and said they would pay me $500 twice a week and attempted to get to know me. I played along and they asked if $500 was ok and said they paid through check and asked if I could deposit the check by myself. This appears to be the beginning of a check scam.

I recently met a girl on a dating app called Tantan. We exchanged Instagram and Line information, but then she attempted to extort me. I did not send the money to the scammers and changed all my information to prevent further contact. However, the scammers still have screenshots of my followers and are threatening to share my pictures and videos online and with my friends.

My aunt was scammed by Michael Abbos (thats the name they used). They preyed on her and she was even asking family for money out of desperation. She got tricked and lost all her money. They next told her she needed to go to Georgia to meet in person with an additional 85,000 since her 113,000 was not enough. They even asked her for her bank account and routing number and she ended up giving it to them. I am trying to find a way to help her get her money back. According to opencorporate, the address belongs to primavera pictures llc. Which was closed in Aug of 22. Then a new company was opened up called avana holding llc, under a different address.

This person going by the name “James Peterson” and using photos from the real Facebook profile of the known motivational speaker “David Avrin,” reached out to our 90 year old grandmother in Fall of 2021. Over the next year, she proceeded to have a romantic online relationship with this person who scammed an estimated $10,000 from her using pre-paid gift cards. In December 2022, we discovered that she had been scammed and that they had been messaging on Facebook, via email, text messages, and also on WhatsApp. A police report was filed, and all (there are at least a dozen) James Peterson Facebook profiles with the same photos have been blocked and reported to Facebook. Facebook is refusing to take down the profiles despite repeated reporting. Our grandmother still believes that this romantic relationship was real and continues to seek this person out. The story he used was that he was from Santa Ana, CA and is stuck overseas on an oil rig off the coast of Ireland.

We “met” on a dating site. He charmed and romanced me, then, when I was hooked and “in love,” he kept asking me to send him money. I did end up sending it, naively, before discovering that he was scamming me. I realize that, because of my ignorance, I may never get it back, but I want others informed. I believe that his business is totally made up.
