00:00:03.450 --> 00:00:16.020
Diane Brandon Moody: Hey! Hello, all of my friends out there in podcast land. That's as corny as it gets, but here I am, and I want to talk to you about

2
00:00:16.149 --> 00:00:29.860
Diane Brandon Moody: Dating Safety. I have talked to you about this before. If you've been around me very long, you've also been a part of my event, Dating Safely and Scam Free.

3
00:00:30.040 --> 00:00:37.630
Diane Brandon Moody: But I have reason to update it this year, and so I am going to be teaching that again live.

4
00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:45.850
Diane Brandon Moody: on April 30th, from 7pm Till as long as we need to, probably 8 to 9.

5
00:00:45.980 --> 00:00:48.580
Diane Brandon Moody: PM Central Time.

6
00:00:49.060 --> 00:00:56.060
Diane Brandon Moody: And I am going to go over all the details, then, of how you can continue

7
00:00:56.580 --> 00:01:01.390
Diane Brandon Moody: Continue to date safely, and keep your money.

8
00:01:02.210 --> 00:01:10.500
Diane Brandon Moody: Why is this a deal right now? Well, unless you're under a rock, you have not heard about the CNN story?

9
00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:15.019
Diane Brandon Moody: about all the men online on Telegram.

10
00:01:15.240 --> 00:01:25.510
Diane Brandon Moody: Where they have had, men who have been drugging their wives, mostly their wives and their partners.

11
00:01:25.880 --> 00:01:34.289
Diane Brandon Moody: And raping them, and taking pictures, or doing video, or livestreaming it to an audience.

12
00:01:34.510 --> 00:01:47.730
Diane Brandon Moody: This is about as abhorrent as it comes, and the only reason I can talk without fuming right now is I've had a little bit of time

13
00:01:47.930 --> 00:01:59.610
Diane Brandon Moody: to deal with how angry I am over this, and how disgusted I am by this kind of behavior, and to…

14
00:01:59.820 --> 00:02:03.100
Diane Brandon Moody: To come back around to a little bit of sanity.

15
00:02:04.090 --> 00:02:19.169
Diane Brandon Moody: So, for those of you who haven't heard on Telegram, which I'm not on and never will be, thank you, there are about a thousand members on the… in the group called ZZZ, meaning as in sleep.

16
00:02:19.470 --> 00:02:29.059
Diane Brandon Moody: And so, like, there is one guy who sells this tasteless, odorless sedative for $175 a bottle.

17
00:02:29.300 --> 00:02:31.540
Diane Brandon Moody: He'll ship it worldwide.

18
00:02:31.670 --> 00:02:36.599
Diane Brandon Moody: His pitch was, your wife won't feel anything and won't remember anything.

19
00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:41.839
Diane Brandon Moody: What a classy act, right? Isn't he such a good guy?

20
00:02:42.510 --> 00:02:48.229
Diane Brandon Moody: Some of them were, charging 20 bucks for a live stream of this whole thing.

21
00:02:49.580 --> 00:02:59.949
Diane Brandon Moody: This has been really disgusting. And this comes on top of what we thought was utterly abhorrent with Dominique Pelico in France.

22
00:03:00.160 --> 00:03:05.259
Diane Brandon Moody: If you've been under another rock, I'll let you know she was the French woman, she's…

23
00:03:05.580 --> 00:03:10.380
Diane Brandon Moody: older than I am, And for the last 10…

24
00:03:10.990 --> 00:03:19.530
Diane Brandon Moody: 13 years, something like that. Her husband has been doing this to her, Drugging her, and then allowing…

25
00:03:19.650 --> 00:03:22.609
Diane Brandon Moody: 50 different men to come rape her.

26
00:03:23.700 --> 00:03:29.600
Diane Brandon Moody: He was supposed to be the all-around great guy, the guy that everybody liked a lot.

27
00:03:30.200 --> 00:03:36.669
Diane Brandon Moody: I'm not familiar enough with the story to know how he eventually got caught, but I hope they cut off his testicles.

28
00:03:36.900 --> 00:03:41.800
Diane Brandon Moody: I would be the first one standing in line with a dull knife.

29
00:03:42.030 --> 00:03:46.619
Diane Brandon Moody: Let me tell ya, because that is utterly disgusting.

30
00:03:48.370 --> 00:03:54.910
Diane Brandon Moody: I think anybody who saw anything about Dominique Pelico was…

31
00:03:55.530 --> 00:04:05.489
Diane Brandon Moody: So impressed by her… by her strength, and her fortitude, and the fact that she decided that shame needed to change sides.

32
00:04:06.230 --> 00:04:09.420
Diane Brandon Moody: Good for her. This is just…

33
00:04:10.960 --> 00:04:22.990
Diane Brandon Moody: such news that it would be so easy for my nervous system to go off the charts and yell and scream and stomp around, but I'm not gonna do that right now, because

34
00:04:23.340 --> 00:04:27.920
Diane Brandon Moody: What I'm hearing is people saying, because of this, they can't date at all.

35
00:04:29.350 --> 00:04:41.739
Diane Brandon Moody: I'm gonna tell you that I… if that's really the way you feel, then that's fine, don't date at all. But it makes me sad when women give up on decent men.

36
00:04:42.010 --> 00:04:44.180
Diane Brandon Moody: And decide to be alone.

37
00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:55.730
Diane Brandon Moody: Because it hasn't worked out for them, or they fear something like this in their future. That's your nervous system being in charge. Your nervous system is scared.

38
00:04:55.880 --> 00:04:59.170
Diane Brandon Moody: Understandably so, but it's scared.

39
00:04:59.480 --> 00:05:09.439
Diane Brandon Moody: And if you're somebody who, you know, you've had that experience, you've had the love of your life, you're done with it.

40
00:05:09.950 --> 00:05:11.030
Diane Brandon Moody: And…

41
00:05:11.140 --> 00:05:27.280
Diane Brandon Moody: you want to experience life with your friends and being single, I… God bless you. You have a great time. It's not my place to try to talk someone into having a relationship if they've already had it and they're not interested in it.

42
00:05:28.540 --> 00:05:38.899
Diane Brandon Moody: I do help those who are, frankly, just scared. If they're scared to be in a relationship, and if they're scared to move forward because of what might happen.

43
00:05:40.010 --> 00:05:45.409
Diane Brandon Moody: The other part of dating safely and scam-free is the scam part.

44
00:05:45.950 --> 00:05:52.889
Diane Brandon Moody: And this has gotten to such a ridiculous state that it just…

45
00:05:52.990 --> 00:05:59.480
Diane Brandon Moody: makes me so mad. And I've learned… I've gotten some updated information.

46
00:05:59.690 --> 00:06:03.829
Diane Brandon Moody: About 1.3 billion

47
00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:21.569
Diane Brandon Moody: was the best number I found for 2024 that was lost specifically in romance scams. That isn't all scams, just romance scams, and those are the scams that were reported, so somebody knows about them.

48
00:06:22.760 --> 00:06:38.599
Diane Brandon Moody: It turns out that in Cambodia, there are a lot of people who are being trafficked, and they're in a mill, and they are being taught how to rip you off.

49
00:06:38.910 --> 00:06:44.609
Diane Brandon Moody: How to be that listening ear, how to be the person who feels safe.

50
00:06:45.190 --> 00:06:55.219
Diane Brandon Moody: And this is the worst part, I think. It's called pig butchering, they call it pig butchering in the scam industry.

51
00:06:55.480 --> 00:07:10.810
Diane Brandon Moody: They are patient when it comes to women. They don't hit you up with a request for money the first time they talk to you. They let it go on for months. And so, just when you're lulled into feeling safe.

52
00:07:11.010 --> 00:07:24.209
Diane Brandon Moody: It turns out that this person is not who they say they are at all. Now, to me, this is kind of obvious. When I was dating, that went on all the time, too. I never fell for it.

53
00:07:25.070 --> 00:07:31.950
Diane Brandon Moody: There are some ways that you can absolutely, positively, Not fall for it.

54
00:07:32.310 --> 00:07:48.020
Diane Brandon Moody: And one of those is you've just got to set some boundaries with these people. If you're lonely, and you haven't found the relationship that you want, I get it. I was pretty old before I found that relationship.

55
00:07:49.950 --> 00:08:01.360
Diane Brandon Moody: Talking to just somebody on the other end, or typing on the other end of a line, does not mean you're getting your needs met, but it may feel like it.

56
00:08:01.520 --> 00:08:14.510
Diane Brandon Moody: You may feel safe with this person because this person says all the right things, but what you don't know is this person isn't even in the U.S, and they're gonna give you so many excuses.

57
00:08:14.640 --> 00:08:18.329
Diane Brandon Moody: About why they cannot meet with you.

58
00:08:18.460 --> 00:08:28.129
Diane Brandon Moody: They're gonna set up a time, and oops, their child got sick, because they're all widowers, and they all have 8-year-old sons, and they all work on oil rigs.

59
00:08:28.460 --> 00:08:33.549
Diane Brandon Moody: But, you know, they're… they're gonna be, like.

60
00:08:33.840 --> 00:08:44.699
Diane Brandon Moody: giving you that excuse after excuse after excuse, and it will never happen. And so, then, all of a sudden, they have some tragic…

61
00:08:44.740 --> 00:09:02.150
Diane Brandon Moody: thing happen to them, and their kid is gonna die if they don't get money. And because you feel like you know this person, even though you've never been in the same room with him before, I'm gonna say him like it's a him, you don't know, you may be talking to a young, trafficked girl.

62
00:09:02.320 --> 00:09:03.270
Diane Brandon Moody: But…

63
00:09:04.370 --> 00:09:19.209
Diane Brandon Moody: you feel like you know them, and so at this point, you send money, and you will never see it again, and then they'll turn nasty. Nasty! And they want more money from you, because they know they got some from you, so there's gotta be more where that is.

64
00:09:21.170 --> 00:09:22.970
Diane Brandon Moody: Please don't do this.

65
00:09:23.210 --> 00:09:33.529
Diane Brandon Moody: I personally know 3 people who lost a combined total of $160,000 from people like this.

66
00:09:33.660 --> 00:09:47.089
Diane Brandon Moody: $160,000. One of them was a man who was about 40 years old and has a PhD. This is not about how smart you are or how stupid you are. You're not stupid.

67
00:09:47.280 --> 00:10:05.149
Diane Brandon Moody: This is about people finding that vulnerable spot within you and exploiting it. They're exploiting you and your feelings. So, what can you do? First of all, you've got to stop that. No more of these long conversations.

68
00:10:05.750 --> 00:10:16.400
Diane Brandon Moody: The one thing I know that will work is if you can't meet this person in person within 2 weeks, you need to ditch them.

69
00:10:16.400 --> 00:10:27.459
Diane Brandon Moody: You need to X out of them, they will give you a ton of reasons why they all of a sudden had something come up, but no, you don't need to follow that, and you don't need to believe them, you need to…

70
00:10:27.990 --> 00:10:42.269
Diane Brandon Moody: Delete everything and move on. Of course, you'll… they'll change their name, and they'll change their photo, which is the easiest thing in the world to fake, and then they'll try again. But you need to quit doing that.

71
00:10:42.490 --> 00:10:58.000
Diane Brandon Moody: Don't do that online. Another thing that's different about being online now is, once upon a time, you could sort of tell who was real or not, because they may tell you that they're from Dallas, for instance.

72
00:10:58.030 --> 00:11:07.880
Diane Brandon Moody: And when you say, what do you like to do? They'll say, oh, the cinema. I love going to the cinema. Nobody in Dallas casually mentions they're going to the cinema.

73
00:11:07.980 --> 00:11:14.529
Diane Brandon Moody: they talk about going to the movies, so you know that's somebody with more of a British…

74
00:11:14.780 --> 00:11:31.480
Diane Brandon Moody: version of the English language than an American version. However, now they all have AI, so they can sound a lot more clever and a lot more like the real person, and their spelling isn't as bad.

75
00:11:31.630 --> 00:11:37.269
Diane Brandon Moody: Their knowledge of the area, Is more full, and…

76
00:11:37.550 --> 00:11:42.870
Diane Brandon Moody: sounds more real, and so the AI part of it

77
00:11:42.870 --> 00:11:59.249
Diane Brandon Moody: is having people fall for this even quicker. So, another reason why you cannot spend more than just a few days getting to know this person, and I say that in air quotes because you're not getting to know anybody

78
00:11:59.300 --> 00:12:05.559
Diane Brandon Moody: online by having millions of conversations. I hear women all the time say.

79
00:12:05.780 --> 00:12:11.989
Diane Brandon Moody: That, they really can't meet with somebody until they feel like they know them.

80
00:12:13.080 --> 00:12:21.920
Diane Brandon Moody: Let me tell you, you don't know them online. You think you do, but if you don't even know if they're male or female or if that photo is correct.

81
00:12:22.030 --> 00:12:27.770
Diane Brandon Moody: then you don't know them at all. This is… this is utter fallacy.

82
00:12:28.110 --> 00:12:36.549
Diane Brandon Moody: Another thing about scamming lately, and that is that,

83
00:12:36.710 --> 00:12:45.119
Diane Brandon Moody: People are on all platforms, looking for dates, but also they're, looking to scam.

84
00:12:45.120 --> 00:13:03.430
Diane Brandon Moody: So, this can be on Instagram, if you're over 50, it can be on Facebook. Not even Facebook dating, I'm just talking about out of nowhere, somebody will come by and say, hey, pretty lady. I get those all the time. I never once talk to them because they're idiots, I just,

85
00:13:03.730 --> 00:13:05.349
Diane Brandon Moody: I just blocked them.

86
00:13:05.510 --> 00:13:22.489
Diane Brandon Moody: It can be on threads, it can be on TikTok, it can be anywhere. And so, anything online is, at best, a method of introduction. It's not the way you date. You're not gonna do that. You're not gonna…

87
00:13:22.670 --> 00:13:25.729
Diane Brandon Moody: Convince yourself that you're dating someone

88
00:13:26.150 --> 00:13:29.000
Diane Brandon Moody: When you haven't met in person.

89
00:13:29.150 --> 00:13:36.509
Diane Brandon Moody: dating requires that you're in the same room. Until then, you're just yakking. So don't do that.

90
00:13:37.020 --> 00:13:49.129
Diane Brandon Moody: So, anybody who reaches out to you on any platform, anywhere, not just dating apps, but any platform anywhere, should be suspect until they're not.

91
00:13:50.210 --> 00:13:55.960
Diane Brandon Moody: Here's why smart women Like you, are vulnerable.

92
00:13:58.000 --> 00:14:03.699
Diane Brandon Moody: I'm a dating coach, I see this a lot, and the thing that makes you really good in your career

93
00:14:03.870 --> 00:14:08.480
Diane Brandon Moody: Your ability to read people, to maybe build trust.

94
00:14:08.660 --> 00:14:14.409
Diane Brandon Moody: To see the best in others, to be generous, That is the exact

95
00:14:14.670 --> 00:14:19.110
Diane Brandon Moody: kind of traits that scammers exploit. They will.

96
00:14:19.250 --> 00:14:24.119
Diane Brandon Moody: And the nervous system is involved in this as well.

97
00:14:24.390 --> 00:14:35.070
Diane Brandon Moody: If you've been really strong and self-reliant for a long time, and somebody comes along and says, I gotcha, I'm safe.

98
00:14:35.370 --> 00:14:37.550
Diane Brandon Moody: I'm here to protect you.

99
00:14:37.740 --> 00:14:55.270
Diane Brandon Moody: You can just let me deal with it. It feels so good to have somebody do that. Where you don't have to be, you know, doing everything. You don't have to be the one in charge. It feels absolutely fantastic. But…

100
00:14:55.480 --> 00:14:57.740
Diane Brandon Moody: Again, it's not real.

101
00:15:00.020 --> 00:15:04.460
Diane Brandon Moody: So… What can you do?

102
00:15:04.850 --> 00:15:10.589
Diane Brandon Moody: Here's the best thing I can tell you. I'm gonna be doing this class again, live.

103
00:15:10.860 --> 00:15:14.130
Diane Brandon Moody: Live class, live Q&A.

104
00:15:14.290 --> 00:15:21.089
Diane Brandon Moody: And I am gonna go so much deeper, On that class.

105
00:15:21.550 --> 00:15:30.899
Diane Brandon Moody: So I can really answer all your specific questions, but here are a couple of quick tips.

106
00:15:31.460 --> 00:15:45.710
Diane Brandon Moody: The National Sex Offender Registry is at NSOPW.gov. It's free and searchable by name. Now, this means you have to know his name, hopefully it is his right name.

107
00:15:46.090 --> 00:15:50.190
Diane Brandon Moody: But this won't hurt you to Google that before you meet somebody.

108
00:15:50.980 --> 00:15:57.519
Diane Brandon Moody: You can also Google his name in quotes and add the word arrested or charged after it.

109
00:15:57.920 --> 00:16:03.520
Diane Brandon Moody: You might find something in a local news article that he didn't think you'd ever find.

110
00:16:03.770 --> 00:16:05.090
Diane Brandon Moody: And third.

111
00:16:05.220 --> 00:16:12.559
Diane Brandon Moody: I've said this so many times, but people do it anyway. Don't ever send money for any reason, ever. Ever.

112
00:16:12.670 --> 00:16:13.640
Diane Brandon Moody: Never.

113
00:16:13.770 --> 00:16:15.349
Diane Brandon Moody: Never, never, never.

114
00:16:15.520 --> 00:16:19.670
Diane Brandon Moody: You're never gonna send money, for any reason, ever.

115
00:16:20.090 --> 00:16:30.119
Diane Brandon Moody: Between that and meeting in person within 2 weeks, you will likely not have an experience of a scammer.

116
00:16:30.310 --> 00:16:33.459
Diane Brandon Moody: Now, there are some outlier cases.

117
00:16:33.680 --> 00:16:50.810
Diane Brandon Moody: There have always been scammers in the world. It didn't take the internet to bring them out. The internet just made them so much more out there, and so many more of them, because anybody who can be online can be that kind of scammer.

118
00:16:50.810 --> 00:16:54.320
Diane Brandon Moody: But they've been around forever. So there are…

119
00:16:54.560 --> 00:17:01.739
Diane Brandon Moody: things we need to watch for, but I'll go in depth on that on Thursday, April 30th.

120
00:17:02.970 --> 00:17:16.520
Diane Brandon Moody: So let me tell you what I am not saying. This is not about fear. This is not about never dating again because it's not safe. I'm not ever gonna tell you that.

121
00:17:17.020 --> 00:17:21.130
Diane Brandon Moody: I am telling you that it's smart to be informed.

122
00:17:22.010 --> 00:17:23.970
Diane Brandon Moody: Date with your eyes open.

123
00:17:24.339 --> 00:17:32.370
Diane Brandon Moody: And know that… Wanting to verify someone who is, before you get in a car, some…

124
00:17:32.480 --> 00:17:46.070
Diane Brandon Moody: I messed that up. Before you get in a car with someone, knowing who he is is a great idea, but you're not going to get in the car with him for a while, so you don't have to get weirded out about that, because you're not going to.

125
00:17:46.610 --> 00:17:49.909
Diane Brandon Moody: It's a reasonable boundary. And…

126
00:17:50.270 --> 00:17:54.219
Diane Brandon Moody: Here's an extra tip. If he has a problem with it.

127
00:17:54.580 --> 00:18:10.839
Diane Brandon Moody: Then you need to pass him by, because any guy who knows anything about single women and the world that it is out there right now will not have a problem with her taking reasonable steps.

128
00:18:11.420 --> 00:18:19.009
Diane Brandon Moody: I wouldn't tell him any more of this than you need to. I mean, nobody wants to be thought of as a bad guy, but…

129
00:18:19.600 --> 00:18:23.030
Diane Brandon Moody: You know, if he does find out, then he just…

130
00:18:23.620 --> 00:18:29.680
Diane Brandon Moody: You know, I mean, he just oughta be glad that you're taking care of yourself, and if he's not glad…

131
00:18:30.210 --> 00:18:31.710
Diane Brandon Moody: That may be a red flag.

132
00:18:32.890 --> 00:18:35.799
Diane Brandon Moody: If you're a guy and you happen to be listening.

133
00:18:36.250 --> 00:18:41.270
Diane Brandon Moody: Please, we need you. We need you to advocate for us.

134
00:18:41.880 --> 00:18:44.170
Diane Brandon Moody: If you're in the room.

135
00:18:44.320 --> 00:18:53.899
Diane Brandon Moody: And some jokes or sharing of photos or something like that goes on, please stop it. Shut it down.

136
00:18:54.180 --> 00:19:00.180
Diane Brandon Moody: We can't do this by ourselves. We've been trying for millennia, and it hasn't worked yet.

137
00:19:00.850 --> 00:19:19.419
Diane Brandon Moody: We need you to understand, if nothing else, why we need to be cautious. And we need you to not take it personally when a woman you just met wants to take things slowly. She should be taking it slowly, even if she knows you forever. She just should.

138
00:19:19.530 --> 00:19:23.150
Diane Brandon Moody: Doesn't mean she's rejecting you, she's protecting herself.

139
00:19:24.780 --> 00:19:29.080
Diane Brandon Moody: Help her feel safe, and you'll see a different woman every time.

140
00:19:29.940 --> 00:19:41.279
Diane Brandon Moody: Like I said, I'm going into this a lot deeper on Wednesday, April 30th at 7pm Central in a free live Zoom session called Dating Safely and Scam-Free.

141
00:19:41.770 --> 00:19:45.990
Diane Brandon Moody: You can go to my website, dianeBrandonmoody.com.

142
00:19:46.160 --> 00:19:52.310
Diane Brandon Moody: And, there's a red banner at the top with the link that'll get you to the right page.

143
00:19:53.330 --> 00:19:55.159
Diane Brandon Moody: And,

144
00:19:55.310 --> 00:20:06.690
Diane Brandon Moody: You can sign up there. It's free. I'm happy to do this one for free. It's extremely important. So, I'll be going over the scam landscape again.

145
00:20:06.830 --> 00:20:11.449
Diane Brandon Moody: And I'll be telling you, the times when…

146
00:20:11.690 --> 00:20:22.370
Diane Brandon Moody: The red flags are waving in the wind, and you need to pass that guy, or when the yellow flags are waving, and you need to just be a little bit cautious.

147
00:20:25.320 --> 00:20:27.359
Diane Brandon Moody: Please do me a favor.

148
00:20:27.620 --> 00:20:32.410
Diane Brandon Moody: Share this episode with someone you care about who dates.

149
00:20:32.830 --> 00:20:40.320
Diane Brandon Moody: Your sister, your daughter, your best friend, your mother. The information in this episode could protect them.

150
00:20:41.570 --> 00:20:51.049
Diane Brandon Moody: Look, I still believe you deserve love. You also deserve to be safe while you do it. These two things are not in conflict.

151
00:20:53.730 --> 00:21:01.160
Diane Brandon Moody: I'd look forward to seeing you so much on, the Wednesday class?

152
00:21:01.700 --> 00:21:08.030
Diane Brandon Moody: Let me double-check that, because I am babbling about Wednesday, and it may be Thursday.

153
00:21:08.250 --> 00:21:15.739
Diane Brandon Moody: Yes, I'm sorry, it's Thursday, April 30th. You'll get all this if you sign up for it. Oops, sorry about that.

154
00:21:18.270 --> 00:21:35.929
Diane Brandon Moody: If this podcast episode has helped you in any way, be aware of things that are going on that you didn't know about. Would you please share it with a friend? I'd be ever so grateful. I'm also going to put in the show notes, there was a Freakonomics

155
00:21:36.340 --> 00:21:48.140
Diane Brandon Moody: podcast episode that I heard, which was responsible for introducing me to some of the new numbers. I knew a lot of what they were talking about in that episode, but I didn't know everything.

156
00:21:48.510 --> 00:21:54.970
Diane Brandon Moody: And I thought it was wise to update it, so I was planning on… on doing this.

157
00:21:55.550 --> 00:22:04.700
Diane Brandon Moody: episode anyway, but then when the CNN story broke, I had to. So I really hope to see you coming up.

158
00:22:04.920 --> 00:22:11.430
Diane Brandon Moody: And, happy that you're here, happy that you're listening.

159
00:22:11.650 --> 00:22:20.239
Diane Brandon Moody: And, as always, if you want to find me on my website, dianeBrandonmoody.com, you can send me an email, and I'm happy to respond.

160
00:22:20.690 --> 00:22:22.790
Diane Brandon Moody: Leave a review! Thanks!
