Do guys get scammed more than women? Or is it the other way around?

I have never got got, so to speak, by a sexual/love partner, but I watch Judge Judy (an awful vice) and I notice that many of the cases turn out to be men who gip their girlfriends or even female relatives. Every so often, I'll see the reverse...guys who got stiffed by women who were using them for their money or even housing.

What's the overall pattern, as you see it? Are more women using their wiles to scamA confidence game or other fraudulent scheme, especially for making a quick profit; guys, or is it scoundrels out there who are taking advantage of more women?

It probably ends up about equal but there are a lot more cases of older men getting scammed out of money by younger women that I can recall. Both genders are equally capable and guilty of scamming the opposite sex though so it's really quite hard to say who is worse.

I think the more we started to hear about this thing well the genders stuck. We always hear about men trying to get into the pants, but we also always seem to hear the word gold digger come out more for a women than a man. Tradition maybe?

From my limited associations, I guess the situation is pretty even between men and women. However I agree with another poster who suggested that as far as money goes, men get scammed more by women as they tend to be very liberal with their money and offerings.

I think love scammers are evenly distributed. Some people but nature of their attitude are more easily drawn in by these persons than others. Everyone wants to be loved and cherished so that's their main ticket.
