在线约会浪漫骗局是一种预付费欺诈,通常由国际犯罪集团通过在线约会网站和社交网站进行。这种类型的大众营销欺诈(MMF)是大多数西方国家最常报告的MMF类型。本研究通过比较恋爱诈骗受害者与从未被MMFs诈骗的受害者,探讨恋爱诈骗受害者的心理特征。浪漫骗局的受害者往往是受过良好教育的中年女性。此外,他们往往更冲动(在紧迫感和寻求感觉方面得分很高),不那么善良,更值得信赖,并且有上瘾的倾向。有人认为,这些发现可能是有用的,为那些制定预防计划和宣传活动。
The online dating romance scam is an Advance Fee Fraud, typically conducted by international criminal groups via online dating sites and social networking sites. This type of mass-marketing fraud (MMF) is the most frequently reported type of MMF in most Western countries. This study examined the psychological characteristics of romance scam victims by comparing romance scam victims with those who had never been scammed by MMFs. Romance scam victims tend to be middle-aged, well-educated women. Moreover, they tend to be more impulsive (scoring high on urgency and sensation seeking), less kind, more trustworthy, and have an addictive disposition. It is argued here that these findings might be useful for those developing prevention programs and awareness campaigns.
