Things to Learn Now – the Next Steps
Before you can fully begin your recovery after a scam, you need a baseline of essential knowledge. Understanding how scams work, how scammers manipulate victims, and how trauma affects your thoughts and emotions is critical to making sense of what happened. Without this foundation, recovery becomes harder and slower.
Start by visiting www.ScamVictimsSupport.org, where you will find structured resources created by the SCARS Institute professionals and survivors to help you gain the clarity, language, and understanding you need to move forward safely and effectively.
Knowledge is your starting point, and your shield.

James, yes it sounds like a scam. If you lost money: the way to report this is first with your local police – they are your first responders, then always report all scams to the FTC at https://reportfraud.ftc.gov/#/?orgcode=SCARS and to SCARS at http://www.Anyscam.com – optionally, you can also report to the FBI at http://www.IC3.gov or 1-800-CALL-FBI You can find more places to report here: https://romancescamsnow.com/reporting-entity-directory/
For recovery information, we suggest that you look at http://www.RomanceScamsNOW.com
John, if you feel like they are not real then it doesn’t matter if they are or not – go with your instinct. Report them on http://www.Anyscam.com and block them!
Then do your best to recover from the experience. We can help, just let us know!
