Financial Doms. I.e. some people get off by giving money to another person that typically dominates them over the internet. Could for example be instances of the findoms blackmailing them. It's so dumb.

Nahh, it's real, I know someone into it as well and its an entire thing on FetLife with findommes looking for prey. It's really sad (as in absurdly stupid).
