Synopsis :

Realizing you have been scammed is devastating. You experience many of the same effects as other crime victims, but the shame and self-blame associated with fraud and scams creates isolation, a desire for secrecy, and a deeply felt trauma that is very difficult to overcome. This book can help you:

  • Know that you are not alone in feeling overwhelming negative psychological effects
  • Restore your identity and confidence in the world
  • Heal from the pain and trauma
Written by a licensed therapist, this information on healing after a scam, fraud, or any crime is invaluable if you are the person who was scammed, or a friend or family member trying to help.

"Cathy Wilson has written what may be the first book of its kind--one that is written by a mental health professional specifically for crime victims who have been scammed, and their loved ones."
--Tamara G. Suttle, M.Ed, LPC, ACS, Private Practice from the Inside Out

"As an authority on these types of crimes, I feel this book can help survivors overcome the emotional fallout of fraud and get on a positive path to recovery.”

--Les Henderson, Author of Crimes of Persuasion: Schemes, Scams, Frauds

Many people struggle with getting over being scammed. They feel dumb and this belief is sadly reinforced by our society’s tendency to victim-blame.

A particularly important part of this book is details on the psychological tactics that scammers use. From the simple act of lying to elaborate use of several individuals and knowledge about the victim obtained from public sources, plus the use of psychological tricks and persuasion, scammers are extremely skilled at this. Anyone can be scammed and the author shows you how.
