SCARS™ SCAM NEWS: Russian Romance Scam Victim Speaks Out

Scams Come From More Than Just West Africa

Kelowna resident Phat Ly thought he’d found love online.

In January, Ly made a connection with a Moscow woman named Alina on an online dating site.

The pair began exchanging emails, and once things began to get serious, Ly says he indicated he didn’t want a long-distance relationship and wanted to meet in person.

Alina then started emailing him, saying she was in distress and desperately needed money to survive.

FAQ: How Do You Properly Report Scammers?

It is essential that law enforcement knows about scams & scammers, even though there is nothing (in most cases) that they can do.

Always report scams involving money lost or where you received money to:

Local Police – ask them to take an “informational” police report – say you need it for your insurance
Your National Police or FBI (www.IC3.gov)
The Scars Worldwide Reporting Network HERE or on www.Anyscam.com

This helps your government understand the problem, and allows law enforcement to add scammers on watch lists worldwide.
