46: The Tinder Swindler Part 2: Victim Blaming, Love Scamming and the Rise of Cat-fishing

The Good Mood Clinic Podcast

Welcome to another episode of The Good Mood Clinic Podcast!

In this episode, we continue with our two-part series on the Netflix production, The Tinder Swindler.

In the first part, we spoke about the schemas and modes of the scammer in the movie. He is a con artist who meets women on Tinder and then persuades them to lend him vast sums of money.
In the second part, we focus on the women, or the victims, in The Tinder Swindler. We look at victim-blaming and unpack why people on social media tended to blame the women in the movie. We also discuss some other types of love scams exposed in the media, examine the findings of various social studies and experiments, and talk about catfishing- all of which are related.
Victim blaming has been going on in our society for a long time. Stay tuned to learn what it is and why it tends to happen.
