Unprompted Sexually explicit images and texts sent to my iPhone as if the person had “accidentally” sent to wrong number. This came from 425 200 2594. Not a number in my contacts. More explicit images and texts came in again hours later. Did not respond.

"Luna" befriended me on an app called Lex and recommended me to her sugar momma "Makayla". I talked to Makayla using the TextfFree app with a fake phone number since I didn't completely trust her. Makayla offered a photo of herself to seem transparent. She was suspicious, but personable enough to carry a conversation. She promised financial support, but at the request that I send her $50 via Paypal first. At that point I knew she was a scammer. Luna and Makayla had different texting styles, but both used the word "to" as a proposition when it should've been used as an adverb (e.g. "I like you to" or "I'm tired to"). Luna claims to work at a Hooters and Makayla claims to live in North Carolina. Luna's profile picture is that of a young naturally red haired woman, and Makayla's photo was also that of a naturally red haired woman.

Dated someone and recently discovered that my identity, theft and financial issues stemmed from this particular person, hacking all of my accounts during our relationship. This person was paid by another person I previously was married to, and suffered through a relationship of domestic violence, and have currently been stocked and harassed for the past seven years

Victim: is a 70 year old mentally ill man involved in a romance scam with someone pretending to be Carrie Underwood, the country western star, for the past three years. The victim has lost every detail of his identity to this person. Romantic messages are sent around the clock and the victim is fully engulfed in this delusion. He sends gift cards to the scammer when the scammer asks. He dreams of the day they can be together forever. The victim lives in Texas. He liked a photo on Instagram. The scammer moved him off of Instagram and started texts and gmail messages instead.

So I got an Instagram direct message from a woman named “ Gabbie Harris” the conversation was ok and friendly until she asked me if I’m Interested in being her “text buddy” for $600 weekly allowance, I thought it was strange and proceeded to ask why, then she explained she’s going through a divorce after her “bestie” and husband were having relations , I thought that’s sad but continued to talk to her, she asked me about myself , asked her about herself , then she continued to ask if I needed a sugar mom, I replied I wouldn’t mind it, then put down step by step how it works, then mentioned I needed to do some favor for her, I asked what kind of favor and she proceeded to talk about how she donates to orphanages and would need help gifting them, after that I was like that’s nice , she then asked for my Wells Fargo email and full name to send the money to and said she’d send $700 , then I remember she said $600 before ? So why is it changed all the sudden, after that I didn’t text back because I don’t give up my information like that and it was just sketchy , I’ve now been ignoring her .

He offered to send me a gift since he would travel to Dubai for work and that package was detected for which I had to pay customs in Malaysia because he sent cash and that caused problems, I use photos of a person who lives in another city and that his phone number is not where he said he lived but is located in British Columbia.

I checked the phone on the internet and it told me that it had that location South Kamloops, Bc, Canada, as well as its supposed photos and they are of a person who lives in another country whom I contacted and tells me that he is unaware of that situation.

Romance crypto scammer had me send $19,000 of my crypto funds,my only saving grace was an investigating firm that helped me trace and get back my money.
A complaint report can be written to them by scanning the Q.r below.
I hope this awareness gets to whoever has been scammed before to help recover their lost funds.

Man named George scammed my mother. He met her on the dating app, Silver Singles, then moved the conversation to WhatsApp. He told her they were going to get married and buy a house together. He slowly got her to invest in cryptocurrency, purchasing it through Crypto.com and then transferring it to the fake crypto company; Direct Edge. She has already lost $350,000 and the scammer is trying to get her to take out loans for over $200,000.

Individual made contact via Bumble dating website. Stated he’s the CEO of his own business.

Then went on to state he was heading to Turkey for work. While there then proceeded with a story about someone owing him money and he wanted to the person to direct to me. I did not know him well and I basically told him 3x about him scamming and that it’s visible. I do have the the screen shots to that conversation.

This is extremely embarrassing! I’m older, recently divorced, recent loss, recent everything and whoever this person is has taken advantage of the whole situation.

March of 2022 I started chatting with officer Steven Armstrong of what I thought was the USAF but apparently is a person in Nigeria.

This person has been kind, sweet, but never listens always has an excuse.

He started off being in Ukrainian “undercover” then from there to Netherlands to Israel and supposedly home for the holidays, meaning Christmas.

Little by little he or I one have slowly stopped talking where as in the beginning we couldn’t stop.

Now that I really think about it on e the money stopped going so did the talking.

I’m overdrawn in the my bank. I gave this stranger access to everything I wouldn’t even give my EX access too!!!

Those are the basic detailsI’m praying those are enough.
