I lost half a million dollars to an online dating scam… and it started with a simple connection on Tinder.
In this episode of Dating to Win, I sit down with Sue, who shares her real story of being targeted, manipulated, and financially devastated by a romance scam that began on a dating app.
This is not just about money — it’s about emotional manipulation, trust, and how scammers build relationships that feel completely real.
In this interview, Sue explains:
• How the relationship started on Tinder
• How trust was built over time
• The warning signs she missed
• The moment money became involved
• The emotional impact after the scam
Romance scams and online dating scams are one of the fastest-growing threats in modern dating, especially for people over 50.
According to the Federal Trade Commission, Americans have lost over $1.1 billion to romance scams in a single year — and most cases go unreported.
If you or someone you know is using dating apps, this episode could prevent a life-changing mistake.
This is not about intelligence — it’s about emotional manipulation.
