View descriptionShare

** Giveaway details below 

Australians lost $206 million to romance fraud last year - and that’s just the reported figure, the real number is likely much higher. And the financial impact is nothing in comparison to the emotional damage caused.

In Episode 2 of IDiot Proof, we welcome the wonderful Becky Holmes, author of "Keanu Reeves Is NOT In Love With You", to explore the murky world of online romance fraud and how digital identity could be a game-changer.

In this episode, Rob and Becky take us through the ups and downs of online romance scams, from the emotional toll on victims to the clever tactics used by scammers. We’ll look at how digital identity can make a real difference, the challenges for law enforcement, and why spreading awareness is key.

  • How digital identity can help stop romance scams
  • The emotional and financial impact on victims
  • Why social media platforms need stronger security measures
