Thus, there is a growing need for safety and the ability to recognize the early signs of contact with a probable scammer.
All the social media apps that a user uses on a daily basis, including messaging apps, social media, dating sites, and e-commerce marketplaces. These are the potential mediums for a scammer to reach their prey.&nbsp;
Scammers are known to develop trust and make their targets comfortable with their platforms. The targets usually feel that they are communicating with a single person but there is generally a group of individuals involved in trapping innocent users.
