You and me both. I met this guy from Australia and he wanted 30,000. or my car and my house to fund his hospital registration....he told me he loved loved me simply loved me but I found out he just loved my money so of course I told him "No" about the money and now he has stopped communicating with me all together. Sounds fishy huh.
He met me on the so called facebook.com dating sight thingy.
I hope you find some one normal who does not ask you for money again but that is hard these days huh,?.....
Good luck but welcome to Mingle2 ....
Sincerely, Isabel

Hi guys,

Yes, indeed, the internet is full of scammers. Scammers will take advantage of any free venue. (some will even pay)

Here at Mingle2, we work very hard to keep them off the site. We scan these profiles, relentlessly. Member support is greatly appreciated.

If you suspect a scammer, please report them. On every email you receive, near the bottom of the page, there is a report user button. These reports come directly to us.

You can also report them by their profile. Just click "report user"
The same option exists for Instant messenger.

We will put our record of removing them, against any other dating site. We have had tremendous success, but you can do your part, by reporting them. The more eyes, the better.

Thanks,
The Mingle2 team

Along with what Mark stated I would like to add this.

First rule of internet dating...Never ever, ever, ever on to infinity give/send anyone money, period end of sentence.
If they say they want it to come and see you, tell them you will go to see them first. Trust me when I say this, they will disapear fast.

Secondly, slow down Wayne, Rome was not built in a day and a wife was not found in a year. It will happen when it happens. Stick around, post in the forums, get to know all the folks here. That way a lurking lady just might see who you really are and start a conversation with you that just might turn in to something wonderful. Good luck.

Well, now you know! Knowing this, you can create a better experience for yourself going forward. I would insist on talking to someone over the phone and/or meeting in person early on. Might save you some time.
