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.

Research & trendsHistorical original manual note (preserved; superseded only where the explicit ROOT contextual qualification below applies): Own LaOpinión record read. Alleged hunger/death causation remains the quoted man’s claim; triple-killing narrative remains separate from mother’s alleged death. No event year or source-fact borrowing. ROOT contextual qualification: Every own title/description reports an attributed EUR25,000 loan to romance-scam victims, inability to remit to a mother in Pakistan, and the speaker's hunger/death causal allegation within a triple-killing narrative. The own text supplies none of the nine selected themes: psychological or relationship injury, physical/sexual injury under its non-homicide definition, handling funds for the fraud scheme, assistance/help-seeking, investment, digital method, organizational structure, or pre-exploitation vulnerability. Missing positive evidence is NR rather than a hold merely because unobserved details might exist. Preserve homicide/financial/other existing states, the attributed claim and distinct subjects. Do not identify the sisters as the homicide victims, treat the loan as scam loss, establish causation, sum repeated cases, or infer country/event year.
