From two "Tinder Swindler" survivors comes a powerful resource detailing how you and your loved ones can reduce your risk of romance fraud and other scams.

Romance scams and other confidence schemes are among the world's fastest growing types of fraud. This book, written by two women featured in Netflix's The Tinder Swindler, will flip everything you think you know about relationship scams on its head. As everyone becomes increasingly vulnerable to these crimes, it's crucial to understand how to keep yourself and your loved ones safer.

Swindled Never After offers behind-the-scenes insights into Cecilie Fjellhøy and Pernilla Sjöholm's harrowing experiences of betrayal and financial ruin and relates how they used their story to inspire change. Interwoven with their candid personal narratives are:

  • Analysis from experts on the psychological mechanics of relationship scams,
  • A summary of the various loopholes in banking and cybercrime laws that leave injured parties unprotected,
  • And suggestions for ways to rally for change and use technology to fight against fraud.

If you are a victim of fraud (or suspect a loved one is) or you are currently navigating the minefield of online dating and social media apps, this book is for you. If you saw the documentary and wondered what happened next or you simply want to educate yourself on how to avoid scams, this book is also for you. No matter what brought you here, you will learn how to best advocate for survivors of fraud, how fraudsters operate, and what we as a society can—and must—do to stop them.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

What two strong women! Emotional and raw! It’s so sad how our society treats victims but it’s amazing they pushed through and are now educating people about these topics! I also liked the accent of the woman who read the book, she sounds just like Cecilie!

Wow
