    BETH HYLAND INTERVIEW

    Author of Diary of a Romance Scam: When Swiping Right Goes Wrong. When Beth Hyland swiped right, she thought she had found love. Instead, she found herself ensnared in a sophisticated web of deception—one that would not only shake her trust but threaten her financial and emotional well-being. Diary of a Romance Scam is a raw, courageous, and eye-opening account of how expertly trained criminals manipulate, groom, and exploit victims in ways that mirror the coercive control seen in domestic abuse. This is not just a story of loss but one of survival, resilience, and transformation. As Beth bravely unpacks the intricate psychological tactics used against her, she also shines a light on the devastating stigma that keeps so many victims silent. Society must understand that these scams are not simply about “giving money to strangers”—they are calculated, deeply personal betrayals that thrive in the shadows of shame and victim-blaming. To break the cycle, we must listen to survivors like Beth, amplify their voices, and demand systemic change. Beth’s journey from victim to advocate is a testament to the strength that can emerge from even the darkest experiences. Her story is not only a warning—it’s an essential educational tool that exposes the brutal reality of romance fraud and urges us all to take it seriously. This book is a powerful call to action, challenging us to replace judgment with empathy and ignorance with awareness.

    EPISODE 13 - JONATHAN FARLEY WAS SCAMMED BY A RUSSIAN BRIDE

    Jonathan: "The amount she stole was such that if a stranger had stolen it, that person would face up to 10 years in prison. The Baltimore Police Report number is # 1-16-09-13524. It is labeled as a “dispute” only because she is my wife; in fact, there was no “dispute” since I discovered the theft only after she was gone (but before her plane was to take off). I was able to get into the apartment because I had told the woman at the front desk to send a locksmith before driving my wife to the airport." ALL PICTURES HE SHARED WITH ME ARE ON MY BLOG.

    INTERVIEW WITH BETH WHO WAS SCAMMED

    A little backdrop of my story. I was in a romance scam that lasted 2 1/2 months and it ended 8 months ago. I met him on Tinder and lost $26,000. I almost lost $50,000 more but when I went to take money out of my retirement account, I told my financial advisor the whole story and he said he thought I might be in a romance scam. When I ended it, I made a quick decision to live my life to the fullest and started advocating. I am also a comedy improv performer.
