Romance Fraud

Posted on 15th February, 2017

BCU8 14022017

Romance Fraud - as part of the Cyber Crime Awareness month we would like to remind you that there are a number of scams that occur locally and nationwide - some of which relate to `romance scams'.

 

According to the reported figures from Action Fraud, a romance fraud is reported every three hours in the UK. That’s an astounding figure, especially when we know that a lot of romance frauds go unreported. The figures also indicate a victim loses, on average £10,000.
