Online dating is risky
Be cautious when making friends
In the middle of a sea of people
Someone is across the phone screen
Hello and warm
But behind the sweet talk
Maybe it's a trap for breaking the money and being sad
When "love" comes
Be sure to keep your eyes clean
Verify identity
Keep a clear head
Otherwise it could end up
Money is empty
Recently, a woman encountered a "love scam" when making friends on the Internet, and the police of the Jingtian Police Station of the Futian Branch of the Shenzhen Municipal Public Security Bureau received a request for help and patiently persuaded for 7 hours to stop the loss of 140,000 yuan for her.
