Christopher Earl Lloyd, 39, claimed he was a financial expert to convince victims to transfer him money, prosecutors say
A California man was arrested on Thursday for allegedly using dating apps to con his matches out of more than $2m over the course of nearly three years.
Allegedly posing as an investor, Christopher Earl Lloyd, 39, of the Los Angeles-area city of Whittier swindled matches that he befriended and romanced on Tinder, Hinge and Bumble. Federal prosecutors have charged Lloyd with 13 counts of wire fraud and one count of engaging in a monetary transaction in property derived from fraud.
