They Swiped Right. He Swiped Wrong
-
The more things change... Technology has only made it easier to run some of the same old scams, like this guy who ran the scheme where he'd pose as a suitor for a single woman and proceed to rip her off by claiming he needed cash for a medical emergency, only in these cases the accused used Tinder. He told the women he had a sister with cancer who needed treatment and he needed a loan to pay for it. You would think that if someone you've known for a few months of dates asks for $12,000, you'd know that something was very wrong, especially since he claimed to be in finance -- just go to the bank and get a loan, buddy -- but when it's an affair of the heart, your ability to reason may escape you.
