Slap a ho! Thanks man many of us are already aware of that! The scammers try to get you offsite in 1 or 2 emails.. Stay on site with folks untill you feel comfortable & never send anyone money! @willing2 a real scammer is mebbe one who succeeds? I am very new to the site and everyone that emails me wants to use yahoo instead. What can they find out by doing that? I can't believe that everyone is a scammer but then again I'm a little nieve (sorry don't know how to spell it)After reading this I'm worried... another good reason to not g off site is, it's out of our jurisdiction. If someone tries to scam you off site, we can't review it to make sure. It is simply a he said/she said at that point. Some people have a bad break up with someone and will say all kinds of things about the other person. This is why the site needs to verify these things. That way someone isn't falsely persecuted Just play it safe. The good ones will understand not wanting to go off site. Good luck to you Thank you and that is the problem we were off site.

Man it is sad when you find a person so attached to a scammer that no matter what you say to them they just wont let go of the fantasy that has been built for them. I just found out about this guy who has been talking to a fake profile using pictures of Raven Riley. this guy is so convinced that this person is real that he is lashing out at me and another guy who are trying to help him see the truth.

Okaaaayyy... I've given a couple of guys my email address to chat, but I'm not a real OR a fake scammer... Is there really a danger to giving someone your email address??

Is there really a danger to giving someone your email address?? some use it to Scam,Spam,and selling it,might even manage to hack into your Computer! Best is to use a Web-based Address,like Yahoo,Google or Hotmail,where you can just walk away from,and create another Account! Also need to make strong Passwords,not something the Scammers can guess!

"FAKE scammer" I thought a scammer was a scammer. How can they be referred to as a fake? Izzy "thank you for sharing the you tube video" nice to know someone is scamming the scammer.

Your welcome on the video. I think what he meant by a fake was a person using someone else's pictures as their own. As far as I can tell I've only had one scammer that used their own picture and that was was a Russian. But who knows? That one could have just as easily but some dude from Africa.

There's always something that isn't thought about until it's to late. Like not setting the ladder up near a cactus bed when you're trying to catch a wood pecker. hahaha
