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.

Shared wording

Dating fraudsters use fake banks to con woman out of £80K

Own rare Kirsty/florist/NorthYorkshire/80000GBP/fakebanks lead supports title169 bounded work. Anonymous85K regional and Belmont90K reports stay possible-only absent a rare person bridge; amounts remain literal, no surname from another URL or victim from byline KirstyHanson.

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.
