I am rachel smith I love you Profile and I never
believed anybody wanna be with a girl like mine who's
got a fairy tale about life's experience o.k. If U
really want to meet me for real, i want U to know the
problem i have and what my hard experiences about life
was ok!! Please read this carefully and U'll
understand
the kind of person i am and what my hard experiences
about life is o.k. I was born in georgia and raise in
georgia, USA, and my
parents were from United Kingdom. I started my fairly
tale when I was just 18 months old, i lost my Mum. I
didn't growup to know who she was or who ever my
mother
was o.k. My father had to raise me all alone. I was
the
only child of the family. I also lost my Dad few years
ago, It was, when i was a kid and i lost my mum that
my
dad had to build a House in Ohio ok. that was where i
grew up and spend most of my life time so far.
I met a guy after my father's death few months ago
when
i moved out to macon, because my father raised me
never
to have friends cos he had bad experience with friends
when he was much more younger , and he made me stay
indoor all day too. This guy i met was a german
alright? He lived with me in macon, for over 2months ,
he asked if i would come over to africa to see his
Uncle so we can get engaged and i can be happy after
all the sorrows i've had I agree to go on the trip
to africa with him. I saved enough to keep us
confortable while we were away o.k. I had to withdraw
about $10,500 i have in my account to make sure we
were
safe and secure while we were on this trip . So i
closed up my account. But unfortunately, when we got
to
africa he took me to stay in a hotel, and after few
weeks and days when we got here, he brought a bottle
of
champaigne and i think he wanted to propose marriage
to
me, but after i drank the champaigne i was asleep all
through and when i
woke up, i noticed that he had gone with all my stuff
my money, my jewelries, and everything i had left out
here ok. he only left me with some cloths and nothing
else, I was all alone here, and he left me a note
saying that he had gone over to the Ukraine, with
another girl, the lady he really loved and he's been
keeping for so long when he was once in africa . Right
now i'm in a hell oftrouble. I was left out here all
alone with some billsto take care of at the hotel i'm
staying and the hotel management won't let me get out
of here if i didn't pay the bills ok!! It's really
crazy. I feel like killing myself ok. At the moment i
have an outstanding bill of $350 here on my
accomodation and just $100 for the internet services,
provided for me out here o.k. the hotel manager
out here seized my passport andreturn flight ticket so
that i will not run away. Please i need your help to
get my life back on track and start up a new life for
a
life time happiness I promise if U can get me out of
here by helping mepay the bills to the Hotel
management, i will surely make it upto U o.k. and
hopefully i will accept that i have found a new life
with U So it's up to U to decide on what U wanna do
with me
concerning these issues Waiting to read from U soon .i
am also looking for someone that can be the flesh of
my
flesh and the bone of my bone , one that will not just
be beside me but one that can be part of me pls o tell
me more about yourself maybe we can get along fine and
you can email me to rachel_smith150@yahoo.com

What's scarey is there are people out there who'd reply and actually
start a dialog with them! Believe it or not someone will probably fall

believeable, lol

I am always a little surprized to see paste and copy emails . Not cool,
not nice, even if it is a scam or for real.


JMHO

i don't know why they all go to Africa, or they are from Africa - maybe
not a lady - who knows. I got an e-mail from a lady - a different story,
a Model from NY and in some place in Africa, and the same story - the
Hotel Bill. I cornered her, told her that I know some people in that
country, would go and help her, just to tell me her name and the Hotel
where she stays.
