(Undated) — Valentine’s Day is Friday and many are “looking for love.” Better Business Bureau Investigator, Don O’Brien says “romance scams” differ slightly from other “catfishing” scams.
According to O’Brien, last year the BBB received over five hundred reports of “romance scams” with an average loss of over six thousand dollars. He says often scammers target people over the age of 65 with fake profiles. For those looking to make a report on a romance scam, visit BBB.org.
