can you please explain me about the romance scam? I might be in a very similar situation. TIA.
Generally involves "online relationships"... They'll find victims using online dating or facebook/social media or mailorder bride type websites... build up trust using fake pictures, sad stories about their life etc... generally they'll never use voice or video calling and will make up lame excuses about how their internet is bad, or their webcam is broken etc... so it'll be all via text/email/Instant Messaging etc... then, after it looks like the victim considers that they're "in a relationship" with the scammers and starts talking about visiting or getting married etc, the scammers will ask for money to pay for air tickets or passports or because they need to buy school supplies for their children or medical treatment for sick relatives etc...
