Phishing for Love

Valentine’s Day is a time for love, connection, and bonding with loved ones.

The internet has opened new avenues for connecting and meeting others for both romantic and platonic relationships. However, it has also allowed individuals who seek to exploit romantic or friendship hopefuls for their own gain. Romance scams in particular prey on the vulnerability and trust of unsuspecting individuals, which can lead to devastating financial and emotional consequences.

Prioritize your safety and well-being this Valentine’s Day by remaining cautious in online interactions.
