Romance Scams

Romance scams, where fraudsters manipulate emotional relationships to gain financial benefits, are becoming increasingly common. These scams can cause significant financial and psychological harm to victims. To combat this growing problem, we have developed a comprehensive strategy focused on two key areas: awareness campaigns and support initiatives.

​

Awareness Campaigns

We actively work to educate the public on how to identify and avoid romance scams. Through extensive information campaigns via social media, printed materials, and public lectures, we spread knowledge about the most common warning signs.

• Identifying Risks: Our campaigns provide practical tools and information to recognize suspicious behaviors, including exaggerated declarations of love, sudden financial demands, and reluctance to meet in person.

• Protect Yourself: We emphasize the importance of being cautious when sharing personal information online and staying alert to warning signs.

The goal is to create a more informed and vigilant public that can resist the traps of romance scams.

​

Support Initiatives

For those who have fallen victim to romance scams, we offer comprehensive and tailored support addressing both emotional and legal needs.

• Emotional Support: Our psychologists help victims process the emotional impact of the scam, rebuild their confidence, and manage feelings of betrayal and shame.

• Legal Support: Our legal experts assist with recovering lost funds and pursuing legal action against the fraudsters. We work to hold perpetrators accountable and protect the rights of victims.

Our team of experts collaborates to provide victims with the comprehensive support they need to regain both financial stability and psychological well-being.

A Comprehensive Solution

By combining awareness campaigns and support initiatives, we work both preventively and reactively to combat romance scams. Our strategy is designed to:

1. Prevent Crimes: By spreading knowledge and equipping individuals with practical tools.

2. Support Victims: By providing a robust safety net for those who have already been affected.

At SweHedge Foundation, we aim to create a safer, more informed, and resilient digital world, where no one has to become a victim of emotional manipulation.
