Hello
I am sec time on this site "because is free lol"
I am very....very....very disapointed with to many male scammers from Nigeria on here.

They are not black guys and they dont say they are from Nigeria you will know only after later.( hey use someones pict)

They start with a conversation about they busines how much money they have and as well they have a big contract what will make the life safe forever with you.

He will say to you you dont need to worry about work anymore because he will give you security and everything ...etc etc.

then later after 10000 of romantic emails...plans to meet....etc

some terrible thing happen to the busines and he will lose everything if dont find money to pay " machine broke",goods wasted in the port etc" He will say he have part of the money you need to help with just 1000 dolar...because he dont have much time.

Then he will finish the job and receive the money and then you and him be happy together....
I am saying it because i past for same **** for 3 times here... please girls... pay atention is not only woman scamming now... Man as well.
xx

Sad but true. The other thing is that they are from the US working overseas there and their accounts are frozen here so they can't get access to their money.

I know of someone who was being scammed by someone there in Nigeria. So yes, be careful and if something sounds fishy then it most likely is.

If you've fallen for it 3 times, it says more about you than them.
Why are you such an easy victim?

Unfortunately scammers are standard in the world wide web.

Use common sense. slaphead

Don’t act desperate by saying you are looking for love. Be independent and strong, and don’t put out the “fairytale seeker” attitude.

Don't be a victim by acting vulnerable. If the member gets too personal too soon AND they talk about their “wealth” – delete the emails and block them.

If the picture looks too good to be true (ie, model-like) it's probably a "stock" photo. Also if they only have ONE picture up that looks too good to be true - it's a red flag. A good profile should have a few pictures of difference scenarios of the member to ease suspicion. You can also do a search for stock photos and verify whether they are real on tineye.

I've been on the site for 2 years and never ONCE have I been approached by a scammer (while I was single and looking). The scam profiles are too easy to spot if you play it smart.

I’m sorry to hear that, as for me I have had this happen to me a few times. So after the first couple of emails you tend to learn what to watch out for. Or another easy way to find out; you can do a search Google on the name, they tend to be well know as scammers and have a lil place of their own on the web

That's when you report them so you can make the site aware of them. The site can't do anything if they aren't aware of them. This site is ONE OF THE BEST at getting rid of them.

They are every where. They are like roaches. Once you have them, it's hard to get rid of them for good.

But scammers are only as good as the people they scam.
