‘Fabulous. I read this in a single weekend and I didn’t want it to end. Scammers, con-artists, catfishers – you have met your match’ Jeremy Vine

‘A brilliant read. Moves effortlessly between hilarious and informative and back again’ Ed Byrne, comedian and actor

'Astonishing' Daily Mail

Online romance fraud is a problem across the globe. It causes financial and emotional devastation, yet many people refuse to take it seriously. This is the story of one middle-aged woman in a cardigan determined to understand this growing phenomenon.

No other woman has had so many online romances – from Keanu Reeves to Brad Pitt to Prince William – and Becky Holmes is a favourite among peacekeeping soldiers and oil rig workers who desperately need iTunes vouchers. By winding up scammers and investigating the truth behind their profiles, Becky shines a revealing, revolting and hilarious light on a very shady corner of the internet.

Featuring first-hand accounts of victims, examples of scripts used by fraudsters, a look into the psychology of fraud and of course plenty of Becky’s hysterical interactions with scammers, this is a must-read for anyone who needs a reminder that Keanu Reeves is NOT in love with them.

Becky Holmes is the creator of, and voice behind, the popular Twitter (X) account @deathtospinach. When she isn't trolling scammers online, Becky can be found accosting people's dogs for a cuddle or staring at things she can't afford on the internet. Becky has a first class BA (Hons) from Royal Holloway, University of London, and is based in Stratford-upon-Avon (where there are, coincidentally, a lot of dogs to cuddle).
