The Bay City Police Department is warning about common signs of online romance scams. Scammers often create profiles that seem perfect and claim to be traveling or overseas. They push relationships to progress quickly and may ask for money or gifts. Many avoid video calls or meetings, mention unrealistic investments, and have frequent emergencies. If someone asks personal questions, urges you to switch platforms, or pressures you to prove your trust, be cautious. If these red flags sound familiar, you could be dealing with a scammer. Stay alert and protect yourself online.
