Uh yeah, we are sending out the warning to look out for romance scams as they get harder to spot. Romance scams are when *** scammer uses social media or dating apps to get close to you. Once this new love interest gains your trust, they ask you for money. And I know you're saying I probably wouldn't fall for it. But the FTC says in its latest report, nearly 70,000 people did in one year alone, guess how much it cost them $1.3 billion. Now police warn that artificial intelligence may be making it harder to spot *** scammer. Scammers are using *** I to create fake photos of themselves and even voice memos that sound real to send to you to make you think you're talking to *** legit person. *** couple of big red flags to look out for first if they talk about money, get out, especially Cryptocurrency. Probably *** scammer second. If they're not willing to do *** video call like on facetime or Zoom, they may be hiding something more about romance scams at Rawson reports.com. Back to you.

Forget flowers and chocolates: Valentine's Day baskets are in

Now this is how you really spoil them.

If you thought a simple of flowers or a box of chocolates would do it in 2025, allow us to introduce you to 2025's newest trend: Valentine's Day baskets.

Usually filled with a variety of treats and love-themed products, the baskets have skyrocketed in popularity, especially for younger generations. Whether you plan to surprise your sweetie with one or treat your kiddo, a Valentine's Day basket is one gift-giving trend we can definitely get behind.

So, what do you put in these baskets? Most folks either do an assortment of just inexpensive gifts (think fuzzy socks, a few candies, deodorant, etc.) or inexpensive gifts mixed in with one or two pricier ones, like jewelry.

With that in mind, the experts made sure that most of the gifts on this list are budget-friendly, but there are a handful of splurges. And because Valentine's Day isn't just for lovers anymore, they have included gifts for not only your sweetie, but also , your galentines, and even dear ole mom, too!
