Scammers are becoming patient: Banks say social media giants need to step up

www.theage.com.auEnglishObserved 2024-04-01
Included for relevance; source claims are not independently verified. This record is based on saved titles and descriptions unless a separate deeper-reading assessment is explicitly shown. Observation dates are not incident dates. An arrest or charge is not a conviction.

Story groups for this report

Contextual research groupings, not verified case membership.

How to read this record

Drawn-out does not prove repeat targeting after loss; adjacent investment/romance types do not establish a relationship-to-investment bridge. No actual platform method/culpability, financial amount/request, source country from TheAge/Australia domain, calendar year, clinical harm or institutional refusal. Financial/relationship/investment/technology holds.

Evidence basis: saved title description

Connected reporting

Only direct reviewed connections are shown. Shared wording is weaker evidence than a supported case connection. A connection through a third article does not establish that two reports concern the same case.

No direct connection is recorded. This does not establish that the story is unique.

Research provenance

1 saved revision. Corrections preserve earlier versions.

A page can change after it first appears. Observation dates record when its URL was seen; they do not prove that the wording assessed here was present on every date.
