And when did you / the person you know realize he was scammed?
What tips do you have for people who haven’t lived this, so they don’t fall for it?
How long till they start asking for money?
What sites do scammers use? Can it be a facebook group or is it only limited to dating sites?
I feel bad for both parties in these scams. The scammer, from what I’ve read, is duped into the job and threatened with violence and death (along with their family) to continue the work. On the other side are the poor kids who risk a level of psychological damage that may take years to repair, if it can be repaired…all for a few bucks
