The Anatomy of Modern Romance Scams
The Anatomy of Modern Romance Scams examines how long-term, attachment-driven deception operates beneath what are commonly called “romance scams.”
These scams don’t begin with money—they begin with trust, emotional connection, and carefully constructed relationships that evolve over time.
This series breaks down how those connections form, how trust is manipulated, and how the impact unfolds across emotional, relational, and financial dimensions.
Based on lived experience and structured analysis, each episode focuses on a specific component of the process—helping listeners understand not just what happens, but how it happens.
The goal is simple: increase awareness, restore clarity, and help strengthen prevention.
For a deeper, firsthand account of how these scams unfold step by step, the book can now be found on Amazon. Please search "Ding — “Hello Dear, How Are You?”
