Hey people!!
I hope you are having a wonderful day! Hey I think that Mingle 2 is a great way to find people:) I also want to share with you to be careful though. All dating sites have this problem..so lets not single anyone out here. Don't fault the business when it's the one person that ruins the experience! Catch my drift. I believe I have just snuffed out an "EMERGENCY SCAM" that was attempted on me. I met someone who claimed they were from Hollywood , California. Everything good right? Well this person(who ever they are) said that they were visiting their sick mom in Nigeria. Well everything was good until a few red flags # 1. Starts loving you from the start! #2. Says they bring cash and doesn't have a credit card to a 3rd world country! #3.Either they or someone they know has a medical emergency( like cancer or brain tumor...you get the idea) #4 you are the only one that can help them! # 5. They ask you to wire them money versus using credit card or some other means of payment. #6. And basic common sense, like no details for everything( don't get me wrong..they will have fake ids and papers and they use other people's photos...often times from modeling agencies) and last but not least #7. I should have put this first! They try and get you off the dating site right away! And try and get you on a IM or other email address. What ever you do...don't give them money!!! And if you think this could NEVER happen to YOU. This is a 15 BILLION dollar business!! I just though you should know. So have a happy dating philosophy!! and keep chatting on Mingle2 as long as you can....And I am sure Mingle2 will tell you this...Report anyone you feel is suspicious. Take care! NMTM
