scamhush

/ˈskæmˌhʌʃ/nounVerified New

Society & Philanthropy

The silence scam victims keep about their loss, driven by shame, which lets the same scheme keep operating on their friends and relatives.

The money is reported late or never; the story is hidden from the people who would most benefit from it. Scamhush is the scam's second product, after the money.

Etym. — scam + hush — fraud that also purchases silence.

Rel. — scamsmug
