Description

Summary: I am reporting a potential long-term romance scam involving a person identifying herself as “Giada Gianavella”, who used the phone number (774) 707-6674 and claimed to reside in North Attleboro, MA (but is now linked via lookup tools to Framingham, MA). ?? Key Details: Name Used: Giada Gianavella Phone Number: (774) 707-6674 Claimed Location: North Attleboro, Massachusetts Likely Location: Framingham, Massachusetts (confirmed by Truecaller) Alleged DOB: July 20, 1981 Photo Clues: Frequently shared personal photos featuring: A white Siberian Husky A second unidentified dog Several tattoos Personal Claims: Underwent pancreatic tumor removal surgery in 2022 or 2023 Cared for or referenced a young boy named Liam, possibly a nephew Claimed her online presence was non existent due to the confidential nature of her job Repeatedly made excuses not to video chat or meet in person, despite emotional involvement ?? Context: My boyfriend had a prolonged emotional/romantic relationship with this person entirely remotely — no video calls, no in-person meetings. Despite this, he: Spoke to her by phone numerous times Was emotionally invested and relocated from Louisiana to Massachusetts in hopes of meeting her Introduced her (by name) to family and friends Believed he spoke to her post-surgery via phone When he finally pushed to meet in person, she continuously delayed, made excuses. A year ago he told this person he was no longer interested and blocked them after they refused his decision. He now fully believes this was a scam or emotional manipulation and has cut ties, though he was too embarrassed to report it at the time. ?? Investigation Findings: Photos shared with him return no results on Google Reverse Image Search or TinEye Images contain no metadata AI image detection suggests they are real photographs, not AI-generated The phone number is publicly traceable to Framingham, MA, not North Attleboro There is no verifiable online presence under the name “Giada Gianavella” that matches her claims, photos, or life details ?? Why This Matters: This appears to be a targeted emotional scam — one where financial loss may not have been the motive, but emotional manipulation and deception clearly were. It mirrors patterns seen in: Long con romance scams False identity impersonation Emotional grooming or online catfishing I’m submitting this report to help protect others from similar deception. If anyone else has had contact with “Giada Gianavella” or this phone number, please come forward.
