Scams or confidence tricks exploit victims using their credulity, naïveté, compassion, vanity, irresponsibility, or greed and exploiting that. Researchers have defined confidence tricks as "a distinctive species of fraudulent conduct ... intending to further voluntary exchanges that are not mutually beneficial", as they "benefit con operators ('con men' - criminals) at the expense of their victims (the 'marks')". A scam is a crime even if no money was lost., Online FraudFraud In law, fraud is intentional deception to secure unfair or unlawful gain (money or other assets), or to deprive a victim of a legal right. Fraud can violate civil law (e.g., a fraud victim may sue the fraud perpetrator to avoid the fraud or recover monetary compensation) or criminal law (e.g., a fraud perpetrator may be prosecuted and imprisoned by governmental authorities), or it may cause no loss of money, property, or legal right but still be an element of another civil or criminal wrong. The purpose of fraud may be monetary gain or other benefits, for example by obtaining a passport, travel document, or driver's license, or mortgage fraud, where the perpetrator may attempt to qualify for a mortgage by way of false statements. A fraud can also be a hoax, which is a distinct concept that involves deliberate deception without the intention of gain or of materially damaging or depriving a victim., Helping Strangers,

I am passionate about bringing honesty back to relationships and smoking out con artists.
We moderate every comment everywhere to make sure that everything is authentic and not from a scammerScammer A Scammer or Fraudster is someone that engages in deception to obtain money or achieve another objective. They are criminals that attempt to deceive a victim into sending more or performing some other activity that benefits the scammer.! Thank you again for your comment.
I assure you that I am not a scammer. I just started my blog (www.conartistdating.com) three days ago so you can see that I’m a real person; I’m still working out some kinks in my blog design. I’m also a specialist on human behavior who dedicated many years to helping people with mental illnesses. Scammers, cons are personality disordered, the type that needs to be exposed and contained for the protection of others. I look forward to giving victims a voice in my blog and working with your agency.
We did not accuse you of being a scammerScammer A Scammer or Fraudster is someone that engages in deception to obtain money or achieve another objective. They are criminals that attempt to deceive a victim into sending more or performing some other activity that benefits the scammer., just explaining why we moderate and manually approve each comment. Actually, scammers are not mentally ill, they are simply criminals. Spreading urban legends is neither healthy nor factual. As a victim, you need to recognize that you are not an expert in the subject and by pretending to be one you lead other victims astray and can actually cause more traumaTrauma Emotional and psychological trauma is the result of extraordinarily stressful events that shatter your sense of security, making you feel helpless in a dangerous world. Psychological trauma can leave you struggling with upsetting emotions, memories, and anxiety that won’t go away. It can also leave you feeling numb, disconnected, and unable to trust other people.
Traumatic experiences often involve a threat to life or safety or other emotional shocks, but any situation that leaves you feeling overwhelmed and isolated can result in trauma, even if it doesn’t involve physical harm. It’s not the objective circumstances that determine whether an event is traumatic, but your subjective emotional experience of the event. The more frightened and helpless you feel, the more likely you are to be traumatized.
Trauma requires treatment, either through counseling or therapy or through trauma-oriented support programs, such as those offered by SCARS. than they originally experienced. We urge you to read or Code of Conduct on our SCARSSCARS SCARS - Society of Citizens Against Relationship Scams Inc.

Thank you for your honesty, painful but true. I will back off. I am not a victim directly anyway. My adult son is the victim of a woman who is manipulating him into marriage while she empties his pockets through her wanderlust. My whole family sees it but he does not. I agree cons are criminals and should be treated as such.
Again, I apreciate your reply. Me and my family are distraught over my son’s situation. It turns out that I have in the past worked with mostly women who have been taken by men. Now that the con is closer to home, I understand it better, or so I think. Thank you again.
