Could you elaborate on whether international crypto investment fraud often takes the form of a romance scam? I've heard stories of individuals being lured into investing in cryptocurrencies through the guise of a romantic relationship, where the perpetrator eventually disappears with the victim's funds. Is this a common occurrence in the crypto world, or are these isolated incidents? I'm interested in understanding the overlap between crypto investment fraud and romance scams, and how investors can safeguard themselves from falling victim to such schemes.
