✈️ Romance Scam Shocker: Man Travels 700km for 'French Model Bride' – It Was All a Lie 💔
In a troubling tale of digital deception, a man became the latest casualty in a wave of online romance scams. Believing he was on the brink of marrying a French beauty queen he met through a dating app, he journeyed over 700 kilometers—only to uncover a cruel hoax that left him emotionally devastated and financially drained.
💌 Here’s What Happened:
A 34-year-old professional in tech struck up a conversation with someone claiming to be a French model. She seemed ideal—smart, crypto-savvy, and full of big dreams about launching a future in Web3 together. 🚀❤️
Over time, she gained his trust and persuaded him to transfer money for various fabricated reasons: paperwork for travel, wedding arrangements, and shared investments in a new crypto token launch—which didn’t actually exist.
After months of constant chats and growing attachment, he decided to meet her in person. He made the long trip—only to find an empty address, a deactivated number, and no trace of the woman he thought he knew.
🚨 Red Flags to Watch For:
Asking for crypto or stablecoin payments
Promising exclusive “investment opportunities”
Avoiding face-to-face video calls or in-person meetings
Social media profiles with AI-generated images
💡 A Word to Binance Users:
Scammers are now fluent in Web3 buzzwords, NFTs, and “airdrop” lingo to appear legitimate on dating apps. Remember—don’t mix romance with crypto transactions. 💼❤️
Always stick to verified Binance platforms, and never send digital assets to anyone you haven’t met and verified.
