Some of the most effective scams that people use to make money include lottery scams, email impersonation scams, and romance scams. In a lottery scam, the scammer will send the victim a fake check for a large amount of money, telling them that they have won the lottery. The victim is then instructed to cover various “fees” for the lottery before collecting the prize, but when they try to cash the check it will be found to be fraudulent. In email impersonation scams, a scammer will impersonate a familiar entity such as a government official or a bank employee, request money, and then victim will be out of pocket without knowing that it was fake. Lastly, romance scams are an especially insidious form of online scam, where scammers pose as potential partners on dating sites in order to persuade victims to send money before they’ve been romantically duped. Scammers will often use the victim’s sympathies to guilt trip them into complying.  All three scams are incredibly effective due to their ability to manipulate victim emotions and take advantage of people’s naive trust.
