    Good for her standing up to the scammers and to the trolls in comments who make fun of the victims. Online and real life scams in relationships are often targeted to vulnerable/elderly people to steal their money, this kind of abuse is serious and there needs to be more protection in place.

    You also need to watch for money mules that tell you to. Send money to someone else when money supposed to be for them.

    You're not really scamming the scammer. You didn't get anything from them nor received any sort of money or gift cards. So you are just wasting your time with them...for a bit of fun I understand. But if you think you are scamming them.... wake up! @5:50

    That was a long drawn out interview with very little advice on scammers………..because the presenters took over the segment as usual…two of the rudest self centred people on the show. .
