Romance scams are one of the most common reasons why people need to hire a private investigator in Russia nowadays. Infidelity, employment screenings and due diligence are also common reasons, but the fact remains, romance scams have led to a steady demand for dating background check investigations, keeping Moscow investigators busy even with the global pandemic crisis.
Online dating usage has skyrocketed after the lockdowns, and so have the romance scammers gathered like bees around dating sites and social media apps. Single people experience a lot of pressure from their friends, from their families, co-workers, neighbors, and society in general to pair up. The loneliness and pressure to meet someone often leads people to search online when the real world turns up no luck. This has made the online dating industry flourish, but with online dating popularity comes a significant number of dating scams and serious cases of internet fraud.
The good news is that local private investigators in Moscow can help all those people who are in an online or long-distance relationship. “Clients find a great value in our service because we save our clients from many serious risks, including financial losses, blackmail, humiliation and even legal trouble,” says Nicholas Donkova, Director of Private Detectives of Russia PI. When people base their decisions on reliable evidence, there are practically no chances of getting scammed.
Exposing romance scammers in Russia is not easy though. While many online romance fraudsters are too obvious, Russians are normally incredibly careful and highly trained. Their schemes are elaborate, and they also have many resources to remain anonymous, to forge documents and provide fake evidence. Uncovering one of these fraudsters requires the experience and professional work of a private investigator. Professional private investigators help you get the facts.
A dating background check investigation in Moscow is a resourceful tool to find out the truth. When hiring one, make sure the investigation firm has professionals on the ground to verify the subject’s identity, employment claims, education, marriage records, and any criminal background. Having local access to the information is crucial, and for that investigators need to know what government office to look for, they need to be able to communicate fluently in Russian, have training and experience, and they need to know the laws and regulations, as Russia has very strict personal data policies.
Russian romance scammers are aware that foreigners are less likely to find out the truth because of their limited possibilities to verify. That is why having professional help on the ground is so helpful.
Keep in mind that prevention is key to avoid being a victim. Conducting a dating background check or hiring surveillance in Moscow before sending money or taking important steps forward is the big difference between victims and those who have the chance to run away on time. Once your money has been stolen there is not much you can do, except for filing a crime report. It is most likely that victims won’t get their money back and chances are their case won’t even be looked at by anyone. Victims of romance scam often become just part of a statistic! Be smart and skeptical of all online profiles. Get a dating background check investigation to protect yourself and verify your partner.
