I recently met a woman who tried to get me to send 1600$ to her to save her mother. New comers beware.

I once sent an attractive young lady two thousand dollars for vital medicines, I saved her life and she still keeps in touch in case her meds run out again. See the net can be a pretty cool place!

NEVER send anyone you do not know money... Even 60 Minutes did a report of a lady being scammed out of her retirement money... Common sense...

Im grateful I was lucky enough to be on the net at just the right moment to help that poor girl. She seemed genuine enough because she told me her name and everything

This is a common practice by now and just need a common sense ,nothing else to keep yourself away from the scammers. Even in this thread too,I suspect someone is attempting to make people believe in scammers,perhaps he/she too ( whoever he is) is a scammer. I daily get at least 2 to 3 phone calls,5 to 6 text messages,Plenty of emails and rarely someone on streets too....but I never got cheated by any one yet.

If anyone was so inclined. I could use about $3000 to get a really good camera lens. That would the the 70-200mm Canon EF IS 2 USM f/2.8. It's actually about $2500. But I figure the extra 500 will cover shipping for sure. hahaha
