Con Games and Broken Hearts: Inmate Romance Scams Exposed

By Larry Jay Levine & Keisha Davis

Love letters. Collect calls. Big dreams from small cells.
What could possibly go wrong?

Behind every “baby, I need you” whispered from a prison phone is a hustle so polished it could make a preacher blush. Con Games and Broken Hearts rips the mask off the jailhouse romance industry—the emotional, financial, and psychological manipulation that turns loyal women into unpaid employees in someone else’s fantasy.

Co-author Keisha Davis lived it. She fell for the dream, sent the money, ignored the red flags, and learned the hard way that “I love you” can be the opening line of a long con. Today she’s a private investigator who exposes the very games that once owned her. Larry Jay Levine, a former federal inmate turned prison consultant, brings the other side of the wall—the insider’s knowledge of how the hustles work, who teaches them, and why they never stop.

Together, they dismantle every lie:

• The Sob Story Formula – how pity becomes a paycheck.

• The Fantasy Package – how fake futures trap real hearts.

• The Love Bomb Cycle – the emotional high that hides the setup.

• The Family and Legal Hustles – when the con extends past the man to his entire network.

• The Freedom Fantasy – the illusion that everything will change “when he gets out.”

Packed with real letters, decoded scams, and raw personal stories, this book isn’t polite—it’s a slap of reality wrapped in truth and street smarts. Keisha and Larry speak the language no one else will: blunt, profane, funny, and painfully honest.

You’ll learn how these cons are built, why they work, and how to break free from the emotional chokehold before it drains your soul and your savings. Whether you’re already caught up in a prison relationship or you’re watching someone you love sink into one, this is your wake-up call.

This isn’t a romance. It’s a rescue.
Because behind bars, “forever” usually means “until the next deposit hits.”

Read it. Share it. Save someone else before they become the next mark.
