US Federal Bureau of Investigations warns of Valentines Day scams. The most common targets are women over 40 who are divorced, widowed, and/or disabled. Criminals often claim to be Americans traveling or working abroad, but they often live overseas in reality, the agency says. The scammer may also unwittingly participate in money laundering by cashing bogus checks and sending the money overseas, or by shipping stolen merchandise via a forwarded package. The FBI suggests online daters should keep an eye out for someone who wants to scam them.”]
