Lovin’ Lou’s got words smoother than fresh whiskey - he’ll charm your heart while reachin’ for your purse.
THREAT TYPE
THREAT LEVEL
Lovin’ Lou wanders the digital frontier whisperin’ sweet nothings across dating sites and social feeds.
He ain’t lookin’ for love – he’s huntin’ for vulnerability.
Lou builds trust, spins tales of hardship, and “just needs a little help” to meet up, get home, buy medicine, fix his wagon, or escape danger that ain’t ever real.
By the time folks realise the truth, their savings are gone – and so is Lou.
Lovin’ Lou is a master of Romance Scams.
He makes fake profiles, borrows stolen photos, and tailors his persona to whatever his victim needs most — comfort, excitement, validation, hope.
His playbook includes:
Emotional manipulation
Fake emergencies
Asking for “just a small amount”
Avoiding video calls
Never meeting in person
Keeping victims isolated from family and friends
He don’t ride off with your heart – he rides off with your cash, identity, and trust.
