Search the research collection
Find reporting by topic, place or language. Open a record to see why it was included and what the available evidence supports.
The chart uses every search filter above and all matching records, across every results page. The percentage denominator is all included URLs in the same dates, before theme, language, country or text filters.
Distinct included URLs matching these filters in each observation month. Select a point to explore its records. On small screens, scroll the chart horizontally.
A URL counts once per month and can appear in several months or themes. Themes describe the current record assessment; months show URL observations, not when events or each claim first appeared. Warnings, allegations and reported experiences are all included when coded. Partial months, collection gaps and changes in sources affect both measures. A higher share does not establish a higher risk to victims.

Each record represents a source web page, not a verified incident. Different URLs can describe the same event. About these records.
The sparse headline explicitly describes organized romance fraud, without a retained paragraph or specific network identity. Treat organization as a broad attributed commentary, not a quantified boom, proven group or victim count.
Research & trendsOwn source preventive warning/guide or announced activity. Potential harm not actual new target loss; warnings, dates, tips and planned/held events do not establish participation/effectiveness. Specific financial/intimacy/platform methods only coded where own available text states them.
Prevention & supportCristinePetitfrere admitslaunderingmillions toGhana andsentencedheadline, notpersonalRomancetargetloss; destinationnotalloperatorplace.
Reported caseOwn report describes arrest of a young woman and over40000euros taken from two older people’s bankbooks, plus cohabitation and an inheritance bequest. Treat this as one reported proceeding with two affected people; no fabricated-courtship detail, account-facilitation role, actual inheritance transfer, conviction or refund is added.
Reported caseOwn Iris Jones and Mohamed Ibrahim are named, but no country or full event year is stated. Thousands is the headline loss claim with currency unspecified; no legal stage, clinical outcome or refund is established.
Reported caseThe own copy alleges1900000-yen transfers through a Gaddafi-daughter persona and reports the57-year-old woman’s arrest. Libya is the impersonated biography, not established offender nationality or operation geography; do not add the fuller inheritance pretext from another URL. This own record W20240527_20240602C0013 retains its exact URL and wording; no independent-source, person or case inference follows from a matching copy.
Reported caseOwn copy alleges a woman in her50s used a false Gaddafi-daughter identity and received190manJPY from a man. Arrest is procedural only. The clipped surname is not completed; the Libyan-family persona supplies no actual operation country, family guilt, incident year or refund. Exact own record W20240527_20240602C0014.
Reported caseOwn headline quotes transfer-only involvement while description reports rearrest on fraud suspicion. Quotation limits alleged role; it is neither an admission of laundering nor proof of innocence. Claimed Gaddafi/YOSHIKI identities and clipped accomplice suspicion are not verified nationality/network.
Reported caseThe own male complainant reports2425000yen taken; the headline rounds to242万円 and links investment talk to the SNS-romance approach. Preserve complaint, claimed female persona, relationship manipulation and investment context without inferring actual offender gender, a formal investigation/arrest, refund or year from the publication path. This own record W20240527_20240602C0026 retains its exact URL and wording; no independent-source, person or case inference follows from a matching copy.
Reported caseThe own warning lists sentimental or cryptocurrency telephone fraud as mixed schemes. Retain phone communication and a new warning, but the disjunction does not establish one combined romantic-investment mechanism, actual losses, technical crypto transfers or prevention success. This own record W20240527_20240602C0046 retains its exact URL and wording; no independent-source, person or case inference follows from a matching copy.
Prevention & supportOwn Mainichi report names Takezawa Chihiro39, alleges400000JPY cash from a matching-app man using a false Noto-dispatched nurse identity, and reports Shiga-police arrest. The nurse/earthquake story is a persona, not actual employment, injury or operation-country proof. No denial from another URL is imported. Exact own record W20240527_20240602C0075.
Reported caseThe own source supplies a Gaddafi-daughter impersonation allegation and an arrest headline; its description cuts off after mentioning a man. No amount, transfer, inheritance pretext, jurisdiction or real Libyan nationality is imported from fuller copies. This own record W20240527_20240602C0082 retains its exact URL and wording; no independent-source, person or case inference follows from a matching copy.
Reported caseAlleged190万円 transfer into the suspect account; own text reports arrest/investigation and alleged conspiracy. Supposed$12million inheritance is pretext, not real wealth or loss. Gaddafi-daughter persona/starting life in Japan does not prove nationality or operation country; February–March has no calendar year.
Reported casePolice investigation following reported1470万円 loss/crypto remittance. Investigation is not arrest/charge; crypto purchase is not an investment-return promise, and no event year is explicit.
Reported caseReported combined144cases/15億6千万円 and a prefectural warning. Combined denominator is not romance-only incidence;今年/March-end gives no absolute year or demonstrated warning effect.
Research & trendsThis URL has its own full Xie69 account: three prior paid episodes near9mTWD, then fourth10000 game-point visit with payment completion unclear. It is not an additional loss/case or independent corroboration of the parallel URL. Own lament is nonclinical distress; quoted police ridicule is not endorsed. Store report and caution are not arrest/intercept/refund. Widowhood predates this episode, US doctor is a persona and yearless May15 remains yearless. Exact own record W20240527_20240602C0006.
Reported caseInvestigators describe a woman repeatedly aiding romance scammers as a money transmitter while herself being scammed, and the headline says federal authorities bar further participation. Preserve that attributed dual role and disruption without assuming coercion, self-claimed innocence, her own paid loss, sentencing or repeated targeting of the same victim. This own record W20240527_20240602C0008 retains its exact URL and wording; no independent-source, person or case inference follows from a matching copy.
Reported caseThe own bank-credit report states harm was prevented and the title mentions email contents and an intervention. Practical help and communication are supported; no actual transfer interruption, amount, completed loss, arrest or detailed fabricated affection is supplied. Do not fill the clipped bank/employee detail from another URL. This own record W20240527_20240602C0018 retains its exact URL and wording; no independent-source, person or case inference follows from a matching copy.
Prevention & supportHeadline loss$580k; supposed$3million fortune and fake UK bank account in clipped description. No currency subtype, actual fortune, verified US worker identity, victim/operation country, period or year imported from URL/persona.
Reported caseOwn reported100万円 loss, betrayed trust and expressed regret/distress. Regret is not diagnosis or victim fault; no ulterior motive is his own denial, not an entire-code denial. Single fatherhood is not automatically vulnerability.
Reported caseA self-described reformed romance scammer discusses getting women to send tens of thousands and educates potential targets. Preserve self-attributed conduct, an aggregate amount and prevention scope; the sparse account does not establish specific fabricated-affection tactics, rehabilitation, country or independent victim count. This own record W20240527_20240602C0032 retains its exact URL and wording; no independent-source, person or case inference follows from a matching copy.
CommentaryOwn Xie69 widow account reports three prior paid episodes near9mTWD and a fourth10000 game-point visit whose payment completion is unclear; headline four times must not turn into four paid losses. Her lament is distress, not diagnosis. US doctor/shared-future and investment stories are personas/pretexts; source quoted police ridicule is coded as quoted external blame, not endorsed. Clerk reporting and caution are not arrest or refund. Preexisting widowhood is not romance-caused bereavement; relative May15 supplies no event year. Exact own record W20240527_20240602C0034.
Reported caseThe source alleges400000-yen taking through a nurse persona and induced affection, and reports arrest. Preserve the explicit borrowing denial; the disaster assignment is a pretext, not a verified profession, operation country, guilt or served term. This own record W20240527_20240602C0037 retains its exact URL and wording; no independent-source, person or case inference follows from a matching copy.
Reported caseThe own sentimental-fraud headline expressly warns about cryptocurrency investment appeals. Code investment-related warning coverage and the Canadian authority’s alert, not an experienced loss, crypto transfer, specific fabricated relationship, victim location or demonstrated prevention effect. Both records have their own exact same supported wording. This own record W20240527_20240602C0043 retains its exact URL and wording; no independent-source, person or case inference follows from a matching copy.
Prevention & supportThe own article alleges romantic enticement for theft, about41000euros from two targets and an arrest. The92-year-old age is a source detail, not by itself a vulnerability finding. Keep arrest distinct from conviction and do not transfer other Badajoz-copy details. This own record W20240527_20240602C0047 retains its exact URL and wording; no independent-source, person or case inference follows from a matching copy.
