IF YOU WERE SCAMMED RESULTING FROM AN INITIAL CONTACT ON FACEBOOK THERE IS A NEW CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT BEING DEVELOPED THAT MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP YOU

If you or someone you know was scammed by someone you met on Facebook, there is a new class action lawsuit being developed.


– – – – – – – – – – – – – –

If you are interested in requesting consideration and participating in such a class-action suit:

>> You will need proof of the activity on Facebook, such as copies of messages and posts

>> You will need proof that money was sent to the scammer, such as money transfer receipts for bank wire transfer documents

If you have these and are interested, please send an email to classaction@romancescamsnow.com and we will forward to the law firm developing this case.


– – – – – – – – – – – – – –

Please include in your email:

>> a brief description of the circumstances of the scam

>> total amount sent to the scammer / your losses

>> when the scam occurred

>> confirmation that you have the information above (messages & money transfer documents)

>> Your name and contact information (phone & email) and your postal address so that you can be contacted

– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

This is real and you will not have to pay anything to participate in the lawsuit if it goes forward. NO ONE WILL ASK YOU FOR ANY MONEY AT ANY TIME.


– – – – – – – – – – – – – –

At this time it is not restricted to any nationality, though for practical purposes you must be able to speak and understand English.

When the lawsuit goes forward, you will be sent a form to provide more detailed information, and the request for the documents providing proof of your loss.

There is no limit on the number of victims participating.

This applies to Facebook scam victims ONLY. If it started on Facebook and moved to some other communication means that is ok, but it had to start on Facebook.

More information will be provided as and if this goes forward.

All the information available now is provided here.

Send your email to: classaction@romancescamsnow.com

The law firm in question has asked that we help handle the flow of initial contacts so that they are not overloaded, and to help with the pre-screening.

Also please make sure that you have reported the scam on www.Anyscam.com

A Note About Labeling!

We often use the term ‘scam victim’ in our articles, but this is a convenience to help those searching for information in search engines like Google. It is just a convenience and has no deeper meaning. If you have come through such an experience, YOU are a Survivor! It was not your fault. You are not alone! Axios!

A Question of Trust

At the SCARS Institute, we invite you to do your own research on the topics we speak about and publish, Our team investigates the subject being discussed, especially when it comes to understanding the scam victims-survivors experience. You can do Google searches but in many cases, you will have to wade through scientific papers and studies. However, remember that biases and perspectives matter and influence the outcome. Regardless, we encourage you to explore these topics as thoroughly as you can for your own awareness.

Statement About Victim Blaming

Some of our articles discuss various aspects of victims. This is both about better understanding victims (the science of victimology) and their behaviors and psychology. This helps us to educate victims/survivors about why these crimes happened and to not blame themselves, better develop recovery programs, and to help victims avoid scams in the future. At times this may sound like blaming the victim, but it does not blame scam victims, we are simply explaining the hows and whys of the experience victims have.

These articles, about the Psychology of Scams or Victim Psychology – meaning that all humans have psychological or cognitive characteristics in common that can either be exploited or work against us – help us all to understand the unique challenges victims face before, during, and after scams, fraud, or cybercrimes. These sometimes talk about some of the vulnerabilities the scammers exploit. Victims rarely have control of them or are even aware of them, until something like a scam happens and then they can learn how their mind works and how to overcome these mechanisms.

Articles like these help victims and others understand these processes and how to help prevent them from being exploited again or to help them recover more easily by understanding their post-scam behaviors. Learn more about the Psychology of Scams at www.ScamPsychology.org
