Romance Fraud Awareness

Romance Fraud Explained

Fraud Explained is a public awareness campaign from the National Crime Agency, designed to help people better understand the tactics used by fraudsters and empower them to recognise and report fraud.

This short video focuses on romance fraud, a crime where offenders build trust through online relationships before manipulating victims into sending money or sharing personal information. The campaign breaks down common fraud techniques and highlights the warning signs that can help prevent people from becoming victims.

By making fraud easier to understand, Fraud Explained aims to increase public confidence, encourage vigilance and support wider fraud prevention efforts across our communities.

Please take a few moments to watch the video and share it with family, friends and neighbours.
