      probably yeah, genuine people actually want to meet someone who lives relatively close to them, even if it's just for a quick hook up or just to get someone to buy them dinner. The likelihood of forming a genuine relationship with someone who lives thousands of miles away is extremely low.

These con artists are fine tuning their wicked acts everyday. The bottom line is DO NOT SEND MONEY TO ANY ONE ON A DATING SITE. Why must you send money, why not the other way round. Forget their stories, they are simply after money. Please be careful .

      Usually when a scammer is trying to fake a Skype/Hangouts/Messenger live video and audio conversation, he/she wait til the last second, til you are connected, to let you know that their microphone doesn't function.
      That means that it isn't possible to hear the voice of the person you are connected with. That also means that the video you are seing is a stolen prercorded video.
      If you are unsure, ask the person to put her/his hands on her/his ears or do something other lik showing you the "V" with her/his hand. If he/she can do that, then it is live.
      If he/she start talking about that you don't trust him/her, then he/she is a faker, disconnect.
      I have done this several times. It is boring now.

    It’s not only from Nigeria but it depend if you speak English or french or german etc etc ... your money will pay for their large extended families (between 25 and 120 people), for nightclubs with big bottles of champagnes, for jewels, cars, prostitutes, big brands of clothes like :( Gucci, Dolce Gabanna, LVuitton etc etc) gadgets, companies, and every scam artist is in contact with minimum 5-8 women from all around the world, and they do competitions of whoever is the best scammers, that's unbelievable , I'd seen that with my eyes in Ivory Coast ... they laugh of these poor single women or men of Europe and USA... it’s difficult to watch that but it’s 💯 the truth 😢☹️... it’s rather people of West and South Africa who’re real excellent swindlers of love 💔... it's their jobs , their games, their hunting grounds.... please beware... it’s a real business, but they laugh about these poor old ladies ( or men ) and they said that they’re naive to believe that these young men and their muscular black bodies are willing to have sexual interests in all these old skin , that they’re truly disgusted about those lonely women, they’re fat , lazy, blind , stupid, ugly, too old , but great ATM money machines 💸💸💸 and in denial about the real reason of their relationship online ..etc .. etc ... very very disturbing to hear that from these thieves... liars ... 🤥 I’d made few videos of those guys in Ivory Coast but please, be careful when you try to find love on websites... good luck 🍀 to all of those who’ll find the real love ❤️ PEACE ✌🏼 FROM SWITZERLAND 🇨🇭

    People nowadays are really just so stupid I personally can't stand the computer.. I try to meet people the old fashion way.. at least I can get a good look at them right up front in front of me. Does it mean I'm not going to get scammed no it just means the person's a little bit more accessible to me. I think it's pretty pathetic that people pray on people that are just looking for companionship and love it seems pretty sad that nowadays you pretty much can't trust anybody and it's very sad.. but I do wish everyone well and I'm so sorry for all the people that got conned and fell for the stuff go out and have fun with somebody in person and get to know them.. and if they're hiding something such as being married you'll know pretty soon if you can never see their apartment or their house there's a lots of signs just keep looking and don't let love get in the way.

      Colleen You have said it all..if you really pay attention to small details you can easily tell when someone is lying. They will be a lot of inconsistencies along the way. And repeating questions you have asked months ago can also be a good way to note if you are going to get the same answer.

    There are just a lot who are very lonely to fall for some stranger they befriend in the internet. This goes as far as when the internet was introduced. I worked in a bank (now retired) and saw a lot of movements within accounts. though we contact the owner of xxx account when a transaction is not quite regular a customer would request. we went by it since it's signed by the account holder and we even called to confirm. transfers went on for quite sometime until we (our bank) received Inter office circulars warning of such frauds. We sent notices to ALL our account holders including xxx customer. He closed the account sometime after and saw that xxx was distraught and wouldn't tell us (front line tellers at that time) He was too proud or ashamed that he was cheated out of his money.
