Heartless: How Much Montanans Lose in Valentine's Romance Scams

The own 96.3 The Blaze title and description identify a loss topic and predators targeting companionship seekers. They do not report a support actor warning, advising, receiving disclosure, helping or rescuing anyone. Recommend assistance NR rather than I; retain the existing reported explicit_targeting application because its own targeting quote satisfies that limited codebook category. A general risk statement is not a described assistance action or effectiveness claim. Retain its existing general_warning/not_applicable dimensions, relationship I, technology I and every other application/state.

With ‘pig butchering’ scams on the rise, FBI moves to stop the bleeding

The own NBC title says the FBI moves to stop the bleeding, while its description supplies romance/profit enticement, social-media coaxing and savings loss. It describes no disclosure, report, warning, support service or rescue action. Retain assistance NR; the vague agency-action headline remains enforcement I rather than being recoded as help. Bleeding is metaphor, not physical injury. Keep reported relationship/technology applications, approximate loss wording, investment I, enforcement I and all other original limits.

With ‘pig butchering’ scams on the rise, FBI moves to stop the bleeding

The own Yahoo fields provide the same bounded romance/profit and social-media account but only an unspecified FBI move in the headline. No assistance actor/action or help/report/warning/rescue subtype is described. Recommend assistance NR instead of I for that own absence; enforcement I still captures the unspecific agency response. No advice, recovery, clinical harm, specific enforcement act, country role or event year is inferred. Retain all three existing applications and their own original subtype/dimension differences.
