Filipina Dating Scams (But Not Exclusively in the Philippines)

Online dating is one of the most dangerous activities in the online world, even if it seems harmless. There are many risks involved when people communicate with a stranger online, especially when the stranger is from the Philippines. Make no mistake, there are many criminals and scammers operating in the Philippines with one objective: to scam a victim out of their money via the Internet. It is important to understand that the online scam business has been in place for a long time in the Philippines. This is a country where a significant percentage of the population speaks English well, high speed internet is accessible to almost everyone, and fraud and corruption are deeply nested in every level of life. The Philippines is known to be a place where people can fake the impossible, even their own death. This is the reason why crime rings have set up big online fraud operations in the Philippines, including online dating schemes managed by mafia rings. With poverty widespread, the temptation is there for Filipinos to engage in illegal activity and target victims online. Victims of online dating fraud can be victimized and defrauded in many ways.

Millions of people around the world use online dating sites and apps. And there are many success stories of people finding love and companionship online. But as well as the successes, there are also online dating scams — and these are on the rise. Online dating scams — also known as romance scams or romance fraud — take place when someone believes they have made a connection or match through an online dating site or app — but the person they are talking to is, in fact, a scammer using a fake profile. The scammer manipulates or grooms the other person to gain their trust over time — ultimately so they can either ask them for money or obtain enough personal information about them to steal their identity.

How to Spot a Filipina Scammer

Dear Amy: I met a young woman online about eight months ago and have messaged her regularly. We also have video calls because she lives in the Philippines. Long story short — she has a lot of issues with employment due to COVID, she has no family, her area was devastated by a typhoon, she has few friends, and health issues. She received a job offer in Canada and the company was going to pay for her airfare and put her up in company housing.
