Love or Lies? Spotting Online Dating Scammers
In this week’s episode, Barb takes a break from guests and sits down with her producer, Mela, for a candid chat about one of the worst parts of online dating: scammers. From fake profiles and too-good-to-be-true stories to the subtle red flags that often get overlooked, Barb and Mela unpack how these schemes work and share practical tips on how to be more discerning when navigating technology. Whether you’re dipping your toes into online dating or have been scrolling for a while, this conversation is all about staying safe, protecting your heart (and wallet), and recognizing when someone online isn’t who they claim to be.
