There are a lot of obvious scams out there. If some 'Ethiopian prince' emails you asking for your help investing money abroad, you'll probably laugh a little, and then block that email address, but not every scam is so transparent. Some scammers are more clever about their conquests and use emotional weaponry to scourge their victims of every penny in their bank account–like the lady in our next story.
