Why this event matters

Romance scams siphoned more than $1 billion from victims last year—the highest median loss of any online fraud category, according to the latest FTC data rollingout.com. Criminals now blend AI-generated profiles, cryptocurrency “investments,” and emotional manipulation to create ever-more convincing traps.
