Abstract
The phenomenon of love scamming often occurs to women, especially those who use online dating apps. There are many factors that make them vulnerable to such scams. This increasing phenomenon of love scamming shows that women are the group most frequently victimized. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, involving 30 female respondents who have fallen victim to love scamming and several key informants with expertise in digital security and psychology. The findings indicate that love scamming occurs due to the rapid development of emotional relationships through online communication, which leads victims to feel close and trust the perpetrators. Factors that contribute to women's vulnerability include low digital literacy, a lack of awareness of potential scams, and feelings of loneliness that drive them to seek attention from strangers. This study analyzes the phenomenon using Victim Precipitation Theory and Routine Activity Theory. According to Victim Precipitation Theory, women in these cases often unknowingly play a role in accelerating or facilitating the scam, such as by sharing personal information or engaging in more intimate communication. Meanwhile, Routine Activity Theory explains that victims are more vulnerable to being targeted by perpetrators due to opportunities arising from their daily activities related to online dating apps. The conclusion of this study is that love scamming disproportionately affects women due to emotional factors and social dependency, making them more susceptible to manipulation. To mitigate these impacts, digital literacy education, heightened awareness of potential scams, and stronger legal enforcement against perpetrators are necessary. The government, society, and victims must collaborate to create a safer online environment.
