Romance Scams ft. Oobah Butler

Available for over a year

Romance scams are on the rise, as more people than ever look to the internet for love. From an ex-military hottie who is allergic to video chat, to a small conglomerate of professional defrauders that you can call bae, comedian Olga Koch and journalist Hussein Kesvani run through the red flags that might let you know he’s *just not that into (refunding) you*. This episode features Catfish UK’s Oobah Butler on what to do if you think you’re being romance scammed, a surprisingly saucy choose-your-own-adventure written by Hussein, and a stunning confession about Slobodan Milošević. Human Error is a Daddy’s SuperYacht Production for BBC Sounds.
