US Marine Kagan Dunlap’s Photos Exploited in Global Romance Scam

US Marine Officer Kagan Dunlap and his wife, Reilly, have been bombarded by messages from women worldwide who allege he’s been cheating. But, in a disturbing twist, it’s revealed that Dunlap, 37, has been the victim of a romance scam. Since 2015, his photos have been used by scammers who impersonate him on social media and dating apps, tricking women into believing they are romantically involved with him.

Dunlap, disgusted by these actions, shared how women across Europe, Canada, Australia, and the U.S. have contacted him and even located his phone number through reverse image searches. His wife has faced confrontational messages from victims, convinced she’s lying to protect him.

Adding to the deception, scammers have utilized AI to mimic Dunlap’s voice, exploiting the military narrative by claiming they’re deployed soldiers in need of money.

Dunlap advises anyone in online relationships to demand live video calls as proof of identity, stating, “There is nowhere on the planet that you can’t do a video call.”
