摘要

浪漫诈骗是指网络犯罪分子在网上约会平台上设计一段浪漫的关系，以获取金钱利益。这是一种残酷的网络犯罪形式，受害者心碎，往往面临经济崩溃。我们描述了浪漫骗局的文学景观，通过系统地回顾和综合当代定性和定量证据，提高了研究人员和从业者的理解。本文通过系统的综述，确立了受害人心理的影响因素，并探讨了缓解浪漫诈骗的对策。我们搜索了10个学术数据库和网站，使用了与爱情骗局相关的术语。方法遵循系统评价和荟萃分析的首选报告项目(PRISMA)指南:总共筛选了279篇论文。107篇论文被评估为合格，53篇被纳入最终分析。研究确定了三个主要贡献:共同的个人资料特征和浪漫骗子使用的技术，减轻浪漫骗局的对策以及使个人成为骗子或受害者的因素。尽管文献越来越多，但经验或实验检验的总数仍然有限。论文最后提出了未来研究的途径，以及从业者、执法部门和行业的受害者干预策略。

Tainted Love: a Systematic Literature Review of Online Romance Scam Research

Abstract Romance scams involve cybercriminals engineering a romantic relationship on online dating platforms for monetary gain. It is a cruel form of cybercrime whereby victims are left heartbroken, often facing financial ruin. We characterize the literary landscape on romance scams, advancing the understanding of researchers and practitioners by systematically reviewing and synthesizing contemporary qualitative and quantitative evidence. The systematic review establishes influencing factors of victimhood and explores countermeasures for mitigating romance scams. We searched 10 scholarly databases and websites using terms related to romance scams. The methodology followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines: a total of 279 papers were screened. One hundred seven papers were assessed for eligibility, and 53 were included in the final analysis. Three main contributions were identified: common profile features and techniques used by romance scammers, countermeasures for mitigating romance scams and factors predisposing an individual to become a scammer or a victim. Despite a growing corpus of literature, the total number of empirical or experimental examinations remained limited. The paper concludes with avenues for future research and victimhood intervention strategies for practitioners, law enforcement and the industry.
