A few years ago while we were visiting Iowa, a friend, recounted how her father had been scammed in what was called a love scam. She said her dad was being taken advantage of by someone from another country claiming to be looking for love. It had been going on for some time and may have cost him thousands of dollars, she wasn't sure. After some investigating, her husband, a police officer, presented evidence to her father that he was being scammed. It did end but it's not the only one in Iowa, As we are learning it's not getting better.
