Episode 1 - Catfish and Con Artists

After thirty years of friendship that started when they were just ten years old, January and June are finally launching their podcast to help you spot relationship red flags before it's too late. Both divorced aged women know a thing or two about navigating modern dating's minefield.

What happens when a man defrauds women of over 1.5 million dollars through fake romantic relationships? He gets nine years in prison, but the emotional damage runs deeper than any sentence can address. With romance scam losses hitting $1.1 billion in the United States, these sophisticated schemes exploit people's deepest desire for connection and love.

Throughout this episode, you'll discover the warning signs scams and financial fraud. January and June share critical red flags to watch for, such as incomplete dating profiles, requests for money or gift cards, and love bombing. They emphasize one simple rule worth repeating in different words: never send money to strangers, and never give anyone access to your finances too quickly.
