 Welcome to the JANUARY 2024 issue of  SHU E-MAGAZINE 

Welcome to Issue 6 

of Scamhaters United E-Magazine 

We can’t talk about scams and not sending money if you don’t know who you’re sending to.

We can tell you that you should not be talking to strangers and you should not be sending money. We can hear how much you have lost, but do you actually know who has gained.? The vast amount of romance fraud comes out of West Africa. Mainly Nigeria and Ghana. Of course they have contacts across the world. Sometimes they have got out of those countries and have got to others and they still Scam. Why do they scam? Because it is easy. Yes, they will buy houses and they will buy cars. They buy drugs and expensive Brandy! Gold and watches.

But most of them just buy very brightly coloured clothes in extremely bad taste. But make no mistake, it is you, the victim who is buying those clothes. it is you, the victim who is buying those cars. It is you, the victim who is buying houses for them. Romance fraud is a bit of a phenomenon. When you think about it, it shouldn’t really work. Someone contacts you online, falls in love with you in days, sends, impossible romance and gets all your money! Said coldly, it sounds impossible. However, we know that that is not the whole story. The whole story is manipulation. The whole story is control. The criminal takes control of your every waking thought and every moment of your life. The criminal makes you think not only of the current moment but the future moment. Many tell us, they have never been loved like this before. which is quite strange because it is love by text message. How do we teach people to distance themselves from the romance and the text messaging.? When the money stops the scams stop.

Now, we can’t depend on the police in those countries taking the scammers to court and putting them in jail. for one thing, there are millions of them.

BUT we need to raise awareness. Because when the money stops the income stops for all scammers. When the money stops we get them all. When the money stops, we stop the cars, the houses and the fancy clothes.

When the money stops, who knows, we may just make them have to go out and get an honest job, and make an honest living.

Sending compromising photos to someone you just met online can pose serious risks.

They may misuse or distribute the images without your consent, leading to privacy violations, harassment, or even blackmail. Once shared, it's challenging to control the dissemination of such content, potentially causing long-term consequences for your personal and professional life. Always prioritize your safety and think twice before sharing sensitive images with anyone online.

Red flags when interacting with someone online include:

Too Quick Intimacy

If they push for personal or intimate details too soon, be cautious.

Refusal to Share Information

If they are secretive about themselves while prying into your life, it's a warning sign.

Inconsistent Stories

Watch for discrepancies in their stories or information that doesn't add up.

Avoids Face-to-Face Interaction

If they consistently avoid video calls or in-person meetings, it could be suspicious.

Pressuring or Manipulative Behavior

Be wary if they pressure you into doing things or exhibit manipulative behavior.

Unwillingness to Verify Identity

If they avoid proving their identity through various means, it's a concern.

Too Good to Be True

If their persona or life seems overly perfect, it might be a facade.

Always trust your instincts and prioritize your safety. If something feels off, take it seriously and consider ending the interaction.

STAY SAFE AND INFORMED.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It’s not safe to be on social media. Scammers lurk anywhere there is internet access. Anywhere they can INITIATE contact. Please help spread the word.

If you have elderly relatives.. take an interest in who they are talking to. Criminals are out to hunt them and scam them,

We get so many over 80's opening accounts for their online love.

Taking in money and putting it into Bitcoin...

Don't assume they don't know how!

Believe us.. they learn very quickly.

THIS IS MONEY LAUNDERING.

But if your elderly relative is texting and being a little furtive...

CHECK ON THEM PLEASE...

It's saving a life...
