The defrauding of people via online dating sites has become so commonplace in Britain that the Serious Organized Crime Agency is now investigating the problem. While there have been reports of Australians being duped in such a way, the problem here doesn't seem to have reached such a critical mass. However it may well happen in time. One thing I have noticed when I look at my stats is that there are usually a few visitors coming from Ghana and Nigeria each day looking for Aussie dating sites. These are the two countries where most of these scams originate, so clearly a fair proportion of these visitors are fraudsters looking for sites to target.
