Trying To Adopt? How To Avoid Adoption Scams

For couples who can’t have their own children and are trying to adopt, there’s nothing more exciting than finding a match – or more heartbreaking when an adoption falls through. It’s even worse to discover that you’ve been scammed by the person you thought would help bring a new child into your family.

Unfortunately, adoption scams are more common than you might think. Like many victims of fraud, people who fall for these scams are emotionally vulnerable. They’ve often struggled with infertility and are willing to believe anyone who gives them a glimmer of hope about having a child. They’ll do anything – including give up their life’s savings – if they think it will help them get a child sooner.
