Status: offline 		I've never actually posted a new thread (I don't think) but I really need to now.

I've recently found the "new members" button, and over the past week have noticed at least four similar posts that are clearly from the same poster.  This jerk (it's not allowed to point to screennames otherwise I would) keeps making the same mistake.  There have been three new screennames with pictures of lovely women with the same 65lbs weight, and similar wording in the past week.  C'mon scammer--at least get the weight correct.  Tonight I noticed one with a slender young lady pictured there and the weight is listed as 455lbs.  Well, I could be wrong, and she could be 18' tall....

I'm sure that almost all know this, but there may be some who don't.  It is not uncommon for (usually some guy--masquerading as a female--and who may be convincing) someone to "bait you."  The ultimate goal will be something like: "I love you, and want to come to America send me a ticket daddy." Or, "if only I could come and visit but I must work extra shifts for two months to make the extra $300 for her operation and then...."

Never, ever fall for this stuff.  If they turn out to be in Ghana and it seems real, you go there.  If you send a ticket and it is transferrable it will be sold and you just put five years of income into someone's pocket."  Never, ever send anynone money via Western Union.  Any mention of a Western Union Moneygram is tantamount to theft as they are totally untraceable.

If it looks to be too good to be true--It is too good to be true, and is a scam.  If you really believe it, neve send mony, send yourself.  Collame has had messages about scamming from Africa, and I believe that these ever so lovely, ever so needy, "come and get me daddy" images who weigh 65, 65, 65 and 455 lbs are one in the same.  I believe that they are shysters. 

Beware!

Status: offline 		Oh, you unbeliever! Those poor women were all raised here in the states. Just read their profiles. Ones from Mobile Alabama that say thing like " I is loking for a Man to treat me love amd make me with him wife. I a slime girl borne here amd educated at Univ. "
 
How could you possibly doubt such heart felt sincerity? And why does your doubt only increase when you discover that she recently had to fly to Ghana to be with her dying aunt, and only needs a little monetary help in order to fly back to the states and live with you, the man she barely knows and has never met, as your eternal love slave?

Status: offline 		Some of them have wizened up and claim on their profiles to be from America. I have even has a couple of them write from profiles saying they were from the Netherlands. Just be careful with anyone asking for money. And the OP is on the mark about weight discrepancies. I am not sure, but I think it has something to do with them not converting from kilos to pounds correctly.

Status: offline 		It is definetely spreading. We have seen a great many now listing themselves from Fla. as well. The use of english language by them alone is enough to send off alarm bells and spot them a mile away.

Everytime Master says he's got his own agent to buy the ticket and will be there at such and such date..he never hears from them again..lol.

Well Wishes

I told one that I was a cucumber farmer and offered to send her 5 tons of cucumbers for her to resell and buy a ticket. Never heard back from that one.

Status: offline 		well,spammers and scammers will do anything to keep the suckerflow flowing.  even badly creating false profiles.  the one from that "lady" claiming to be from Africa and listing as Southern USA recently in the main forum was funny as hell.
