Available for over a year
A widow from Warrington who handed her life savings to an online romance fraudster says she'll struggle to "ever trust anybody again" after the £50,000 scam. Lyn was taken in by 'Derek', a man she met on a social media page for widows and widowers. After losing her husband of 25 years in 2019, Lyn says she never suspected any wrongdoing until it was too late.
