Catfishing is a problem that keeps getting worse and worse. As more people enter the world of online dating, scammers see it as an opportunity to trick people out of their money. They do this by stealing the images of a celebrity or just someone good-looking and making you believe you are talking to them. And once they get you to open up to them, they ask you for money. This request isn’t usually obvious. It is often hidden within a well-crafted story that is designed to make you feel sorry for them, or responsible for them as their partner.Â
Once the scammer has made it this far in the relationship, it can be hard to separate your love for the image they’re created with the suspicion that you are being scammed. That’s why it’s important to know how to spot these scams before it’s too late.

Reason #2: If you knew how the person actually looked, you probably wouldn’t talk to them
This leads these scammers to search the internet looking for photos of people who are attractive enough to get victims to drop their guards, but realistic-looking enough to not raise any suspicion.Â
