Romance scam: This one is pretty difficult, as it plays on significant emotional attachment. However, try to keep in mind that if your hopeful romantic partner whom you've rarely met or never met asks you for large sums of money, it is at high risk of being a scam. Common excuses are funds to help pay for travel costs to see the victim, help to get property held by customs in a foreign country, and help for medical expenses. The supposed love interest is often in a different country entirely, making many of these setups possible.
