These reports are grouped for research, not as proof of one verified event. A timeline follows when URLs were observed in GDELT, not when the underlying events happened. Earlier observations do not prove the reviewed wording existed then.

Six own Adan Look/SanFrancisco/500000/fake-romance crypto-investment and later-scam accounts support the named reported narrative. Name0 repeats these exact six members. Unnamed ABC7News remains possible only; no second amount, same operator, recovery or transfer rail is invented.

Why it is grouped here: ABC11 names AdanLook/500000/fake-romance crypto/another scam; named subset supported,no second amount.
Each of six own copies reports Adan Look losing $500,000 in a fake romance involving a crypto investment, then encountering another scam. Keep reported loss separate from the second scam; no second amount, crypto-transfer route, recovery or unique-case merger is inferred. Retiree status alone does not establish vulnerability. The repeated-targeting subtype remains unspecified.

notes
San Francisco, California explicitly locates the described victim, but neither place is in the candidate gazetteer; this geographic representation hold is retained without adding mappings. ABC30 Fresno's brand is not publisher-country proof. Operation and jurisdiction are absent. No event year/day is stated; publication does not date the loss. No cross-URL identity or combined losses are asserted.
