Rosaline is a reported online romance scammer who presents herself as a 31-year-old woman from Lagos, Nigeria. She typically approaches potential victims through dating platforms like Mingle2, aiming to quickly establish an emotional connection with unsuspecting individuals looking for companionship or love.

Her scam follows a pattern common in romance fraud operations. Rosaline initiates contact with friendly and engaging messages, often expressing sincere interest within just a few conversations. Her language is emotionally charged, and she may share personal stories or photos to create a sense of intimacy and trust.

Once she gains the victim's confidence, the tone of communication shifts - usually toward a fabricated crisis or need for financial help. Common scenarios include needing funds for travel, visa processing, medical emergencies, or resolving family issues. These stories are deliberately crafted to sound believable and urgent, placing emotional pressure on the victim to offer assistance.

In the reported case, Rosaline engaged in only two conversations between November 6 and December 6, 2017, but her goal was clear - to manipulate the victim into sending money. Once the victim hesitates or begins to question the authenticity of her claims, she typically stops replying and disappears.
