India is teaming up with tech giants Google and Facebook to step up efforts against "romance scams" that use cryptocurrencies for investment fraud.
The scams mainly target disadvantaged groups such as unemployed youth, housewives, students and financially disadvantaged individuals, according to the Indian Home Ministry's 2024 annual report.

Cyber scammers often abuse Google's advertising services and Facebook's sponsored ads to launch fraudulent apps and malicious phishing schemes.
