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
SCARS Institute articles examine different aspects of the scam victim experience, as well as those who may have been secondary victims. This work focuses on understanding victimization through the science of victimology, including common psychological and behavioral responses. The purpose is to help victims and survivors understand why these crimes occurred, reduce shame and self-blame, strengthen recovery programs and victim opportunities, and lower the risk of future victimization.
At times, these discussions may sound uncomfortable, overwhelming, or may be mistaken for blame. They are not. Scam victims are never blamed. Our goal is to explain the mechanisms of deception and the human responses that scammers exploit, and the processes that occur after the scam ends, so victims can better understand what happened to them and why it felt convincing at the time, and what the path looks like going forward.
Articles that address the psychology, neurology, physiology, and other characteristics of scams and the victim experience recognize that all people share cognitive and emotional traits that can be manipulated under the right conditions. These characteristics are not flaws. They are normal human functions that criminals deliberately exploit. Victims typically have little awareness of these mechanisms while a scam is unfolding and a very limited ability to control them. Awareness often comes only after the harm has occurred.
By explaining these processes, these articles help victims make sense of their experiences, understand common post-scam reactions, and identify ways to protect themselves moving forward. This knowledge supports recovery by replacing confusion and self-blame with clarity, context, and self-compassion.
Additional educational material on these topics is available at ScamPsychology.org – ScamsNOW.com and other SCARS Institute websites.

Kindly do some immediate action with this girl name clarina rolloque barranta..thanxs i have also some information about her
Whatever you have please send it to info@romancescamsnow.com
hi again,
many thanks for the quick response on my report. i notice the updated pictures. the one where she’s in bed was taken 30apr16
i think she monitors this site because i was blocked from her friend’s list on crenze pricr fb page after i made the mistake of commenting on her previous/un updated page and she saw my name.
she probably thinks she’s safe as her crenze prcr page says she lives in makati, but she’s dead wrong. i know for a fact she lives in eton baypark on kalaw street just off roxas blvd in manila.
i pity her old dutch bf as he pays for her upkeep. he pays for a (at least) 2 bedroom unit at maybe $2.5k a month. buys her food and other essentials. this is on top of jewelry, gadgets stc.
but what the guy doesnt know is that clarina/karen has a $100/day drug (meth) habit.
btw, i can send more recent pics of clarina if you send me an emails.
tnx again
she claims they are engaged and actuelly preparing for their wedding (her gown, caterer etc)
i attach her latest pictures (less than a month). the one where she’s lying on bed was taken 30apr16.
i hope you publish the guys pics so if his friends see it, he’ll be given fair warning. an sure the guy doesnt know clarina/claire married anthony thomas price in hawaii in nov2001.
you can check but they didnt divorce so if they indeed marry, it’s not valid. clarina/karen will just use the guy and cast him off once his money’s gone.
she and the dutch guy have been together maybe since aug2015 and got engaged last month.
she lives in one of the higher floors on kalaw side of eton baypark.
