Don't talk to him anymore. A real guy will not ask for anything other than to meet you for a date.

The first scammer i came across told me he loved me after a week. lol first clue

They stole these guys photos off of a website, we think
One of the real soliders died in iraq, I was stupid and believed solly bearb sent a care
Package worth $300 to him, because he made me feel bad for him, its a nigerian scam.
Watch for spelling, they like to use coz or cos, will
Tell you his wife died in a car accident, and he has little
Boy, this guy is very charming, but DO NOT BELIEVE HIM

I agree. I've run across quite a few...some with photos, some not. Poor English skills is usually the 1st thing that tips me off. Another is giving me a cell # or email address in the 1st message. One other thing I've noticed is that one "scammer" will often have 3 or 4 different screen names. You can tell it's the same person because their message wording is almost exactly alike. Oh, and they usually work out of the country and have kids...supposedly. Just be careful and report if you need to.

Oh my God!!! He told me that he loved me the first day that we chat

Lol...mine had decided that he wanted to marry me after a week of messaging!!:-)

But how do I report them, their gone from this sitr

lol...i got that too but not till the second week. I found this very comical. I said hell no i never met you. They will also ask for money to get home because their employer left them stranded. That wouldn't happen, I know way too many people who work out of town/country.

They will come back on with new account but use the same photos

if they are gone from this site, then the site probably banned them.

Just use common sense. Don't go off site with anyone right away. We don't have jurisdiction off site.

Never give money, no matter how sad the story is.

Poor English isn't always an indicator. This site is international, so English isn't a first language for all.

There will always be scammers online and in real life. Just report them and block them. This site works very hard to get rid of them.

here's a few things i watch out for....

if they're older than 25 and type like a teen would text - be careful

if their last name sounds like a first name - be careful

if they refer to you as "dear" alot - be careful

if they leave words out of sentences or if they mismatch words in sentences - be careful

of course if they ask for money - be careful

if their first email matches their description of themselves in their profile - be careful

Famous last words haha

Trying to use a MasterCard in Nigeria? Can't he be a little more deceptive

Every ATM and POS in Nigeria accepts mastercard.

Interesting. Thanks for the info Muaness.

That's what I thought

Trying to say mastercard isn't used in Nigeria?

What's funny? Abeg no try me o. If dey never tell u go ask. Naija no dey fear face. mtcheww.

OP's story struck me as odd. Transferring money across thousands of miles of land and water doesn't compute for me, I suppose. I wasn't aware about how money is handled there. More or less, I was simply bewildered by the scammer's request. No offense intended Mu, but I find it laughable really.
