Meet in person, don't send money.
In a world of deep fakes I can only imagine how convincing a video chat can be, but just what are you being convinced of?

Zhu Xin sent screenshots of trades she'd done, claiming she was a 'VIP client' of a trading company called Business Choice Partners Group. She also sent 'trade information', indicating it was exclusive to VIP members and she wasn't supposed to share.

Nothing says I love you you're being scammed like sending a gift card.

Tony was handsome, spoke with a French accent, often was able to talk with her four or five times a day, and told her loving things, like: "I woke up this morning and I missed you."

Sensible Dating Advice from Uncle Ribshaw
1. Don't send people money
2. When in doubt see rule number one
3. Sounds like a legit reason to send money, see rule number four.
4. Of course it sounds legit silly pants or it would be a sucky scam, but then again love. Oh and rule number 1 applies.
5. She/He needs multiple money shifting transactions to pay a bill or shudder to say have you make investment. See rule 1 and 4 above. Also please proceed to Elitist Dating Advice Below.
Elitist Dating Advice from Uncle Ribshaw
1. Don't date people that don't have their financial **** together unless you plan on supporting them like an adult child.
2. She/He sent you flowers while on unemployment. That money would have been better spent on a baloney sandwich or a bus pass to look for work. See rule number 1.
3. She/He has hours to spend online cooing over you instead of looking for work, sounds like quite a catch. See rule number 1.
