Introducing The Bangladesh Lover Book
Today, Gwen channels her hard-earned wisdom into a mission of community empowerment. She has turned her focus to raising awareness about the growing threats of internet crime, cybercrime, and financial fraud, particularly affecting the elderly. This mission has culminated in her compelling books, The Bangladesh Lover and its upcoming sequel, The Bangladesh Lover 2: Echoes of Connection. Through her writing, Gwen connects with readers on an emotional level. Her mission is to empower individuals with knowledge to protect themselves and their loved ones, transforming victims into informed individuals.
The Bangladesh Lover
Back of the book details: “The Bangladesh Lover” is a fictional story that follows the journey of the characters Eleanor and Arif. While their story is a work of fiction, the emotional and psychological impact of online scams on older adults is very real. Through their experiences, we explore the complexities of trust, love, and deception in the digital age, shedding light on the vulnerabilities that make older adults prime targets for online scammers. This cautionary tale underscores the importance of awareness and vigilance in navigating the online world.
The financial impact of these scams is staggering. According to the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3), in 2023, total losses reported by those over the age of 60 topped $3.4 billion. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) estimates that older adults lost up to $61.5 billion to fraud in 2023. It is important to note that these figures represent reported losses, and the actual amount lost is likely significantly higher as many scams go unreported (“Common Financial Cybercrime U.S. 2023”).
This story was written in remembrance of my good friend Pat, a victim of an online scam.
