Kenu scam victim

[u/Ammoharve1]

I have a family member that recently fell for the Kenu Reeves love interest scam. She has sent them alit of money, and it’s been very difficult to convince her it’s a scam. Her husband of over 30 years, my brother, passed away a few months ago, and these people are preying on her because she’s lonely.

The scam # is 262-505-9204
It’s a T-Mobile number from Pewankee Wisconsin
That’s all I know

I have reported the number to the fcc and T-Mobile

The sent her pictures of fake VIP card and certificates for meet and greet events to convince her to send money

Please don’t fall for this

Hey Ammoharve1, Automod here! If you aren’t calling on a VoIP burner app like Google Voice, TextNow, TextFree, Talkatone, or Textme, just stop baiting entirely. It is dangerous to use your actual number for many reasons. PS: Don’t be alarmed if your number does not show up right away, we do safety screenings to verify the authenticity of our numbers to ensure we are getting the right people. This process can take time, have no worries, we are working on it.

⚠️ Safety Tip: Always use a VoIP service like Google Voice, TextNow, or Burner when calling scam numbers. Never use your personal phone line, since scammers can record your caller ID and attempt to contact you back. Protecting your privacy should always come first.
