Modus Operandi of the Scam
The ‘abandoned baby’ tactic involves criminals setting up a seemingly innocent scene—like a stroller or car seat left unattended. When a compassionate individual stops to investigate, the perpetrators seize the opportunity to commit robbery or inflict harm. This deceptive practice preys on the goodwill of others, making it a particularly insidious form of fraud.
Not a New Tactic
While this type of scam is not unprecedented, the recent attention has renewed concerns about its prevalence and cruelty. The idea of using a child as bait to exploit others’ empathy is distressing, and the viral nature of the warning has amplified its reach.
- Public Reactions: A mother shared, “OMG – I would be out of the car so fast to check, thanks for the warning.”
- Emotional Manipulation: Another person added, “This is so cruel because they are targeting the best of us.”
