Well he tried Trying to use a MasterCard in Nigeria? Can't he be a little more deceptive Trying to say mastercard isn't used in Nigeria? OP's story struck me as odd. Transferring money across thousands of miles of land and water doesn't compute for me, I suppose. I wasn't aware about how money is handled there. More or less, I was simply bewildered by the scammer's request. No offense intended Mu, but I find it laughable really. wasn't really offended per se. I'm cool. |

Sounds like scammers. I had a few myself and didn't fall for it. They send you lengthy emails. Most stories are almost the same. They will ask for money and say they work out of town etc. Report and block them cause they keep trying. the lengthy email with the sob story is definitive scam material. Also watch for people who say their Americans but they are living in the UK or Africa....especially if is there is a miltary photo or they say they are in construction traveling for work I had a father in law in construction for 20 years I knew him - not THAT many of those guys do THAT much traveling that we'd get 3 or 4 emails a month from guys traveling abroad in connection with construction work. insane |

I've read profiles and posts whose English is worse than i'd imagine-and they are genuine Uncle Sam's sons/daughters! So, No,doesnt mean they all do write proper English sentences! |
