مستخلص: Romance fraud is a growing problem, with a 22% increase in scams reported in 2023 compared to the previous year. Those aged 65 to 74 lose the most money, but individuals aged 55 to 64 are the most targeted. The article shares the stories of two women who were affected by romance fraud. One woman's father was manipulated by a woman who took control of his affairs and cut off contact with his family. The other woman, who was grieving the loss of her husband, was scammed out of nearly £400,000 by fraudsters she met online. The article emphasizes the need for better legal protections for vulnerable older people and provides tips for avoiding scams. [Extracted from the article]
