Was curious of the etymology of name of the scam:
> The term comes from fraudsters referring to their victims as 'pigs' – those they gradually 'fatten up' by luring them into a fake romance or friendship before 'butchering' them by convincing them to invest, often in fake cryptocurrency schemes.

Oh, I had never gotten the "fatten up" part of the analogy before.
