Emotional manipulation leading to financial transfers.
Romance Scams: Exposing Emotional and Financial Fraud
The Threat Landscape Romance scams are particularly devastating because they rely on emotional manipulation to facilitate significant financial transfers. Scammers build deep trust over months before requesting “emergency” loans or promoting “exclusive” investment opportunities. The goal is the same: the extraction of personal wealth under false pretenses, often leaving victims both financially and emotionally compromised.
The Cypher Guard Intelligence Approach Our approach focuses on Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) to break the scammer’s narrative. By gathering and analyzing publicly accessible data from social media, news sources, and blockchain explorers, we turn open data into actionable intelligence. This allows us to verify key details, identify suspicious activity, and potentially link the scammer’s digital footprint to real-world entities.
