I had to share a couple things with you all. Today right here in Cherry I recieved a private message from a girl, who looked suprisingly like a model, from Nigeria. She didn't bother to rate my profile, just sent me a message saying "here's my yahoo ID cause I want to talk".
OK, most of you know the scam. Someone, and probably a guy resembling Ernest Borgnein, posts pics at an online dating service or a place like Cherry. "She" then gets all lovey-dovey with a guy very quickly and the asks him to send her money for a plain ticket. No wonder people can't make it out of these third world countries as expensive as the tickets are, too! Well sadly guys actually fall for it. Some of the Russian scammers will actaully send a photo copy of a passport and the embassy will check those if you ask (like you really need to!)
Anyway, that reminded me of a girl from Nigeria who tried the same with me, and I decided to make a bogus yahoo ID and chat with her. I thought I would share the conversation with you all.
