    I have reported this to the police several times who told me “to delete my social media accounts and stay off social media. I’m too old to be on there.” I’m 45 years old! Anna Jean Goski continues to get away with what she’s doing. I spent 16 days in the psych ward and am on 10mg of Valium twice a day because of her.

      What they are trying to tell you is that you do not have the skills to spot scammers. With a history of mental disorders, you are well advised to listen to your medical professionals. As far as the criminal, most likely the information you have is not enough for law enforcement anyway. You have done your part and reported “her”, now turn your back and let them do their job.

      Then stop worrying about it. You have reported it. Let law enforcement do their jobs. You need to focus on your own emotional recovery. Start by talking with a trauma counselor.

    I had a scammer on facebook try to trick me, they use fake pics,fake location and fake name. This scammer was using the name Taylor Karen and said they were from Ohio. They were using pictures of someone in the adult entertainment industry. I reported them and can’t find the profile now, but I’m sure they just moved on to another fake profile.

    Look out for Alex Frank or Frank Alexander, he pretends to be a US Soldier. He is a horrible person and will try to blackmail you. His written English is poor. If he sends you pictures check the date of them. He will state he is widowed and lives in NYC. He also has pictures of a young girl on his Tik Tok and Instagram profiles which he says is his daughter…….

    I have encountered a male scammer on Tiktok that uses the name of davidcalvin09. He is using photos and videos that he has stolen from a very well-known motivational speaker in the US. Unfortunately, I fell victim to his charms and sent him about 800.00 in Apple Pay cards. He was telling me worked on an oil rig off the coast of Sweeden. He said a piece of equipment he was using was struck by lightning and he needed money for the parts. He tried several times to get me to send him 5000.00 but I wouldn’t. I did a reverse image search and found the photos and videos that he was stealing and using as his own. I confronted him on it and he tried to convince me that he was indeed the person. He obviously didn’t do good research, he listed himself as older than the man in the videos, he said he had a child and that his parents were killed in a car accident. All lies. in addition the person he is impersonating is openly gay. He took down one of his tiktok accounts but left another up and is gathering a large following as well as following hundreds of women.

    Hello,

    I have encountered a romance scammer that utilizes the name “Joy Alexander” from allegedly Nashville, TN.

    Please be aware as the stories and requests get very suspicous and get worse as time goes on.

    Thanks,

    Harvey

    I’ve encountered a woman named Sophia Patrick claiming to be from New Jersey, who I”ve contacted another individual who also has been scammed by this woman. How do I get her listed so that other individuals are spared getting snared in her honey trap?

      I’ve been contacted by a young woman Stephanie Stonebridge from – funnily enough New Jersey too. I was suspicious but kept convo going until ‘she’ asked me for Amazon gift cards to help with groceries

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
