Internet dating cheat.?

i met a man on a dating site. he seemed pretty nice and we exchanged msn addresses so that we could chat. he was going to a business trip to africa. we have been chatting for a few weeks and getting along but today he told me he needed more money and could i help him out and he would pay me back. i couldnt if i wanted do but im a real sensitive girl and it has really knocked my confidence. i thought he was a nice guy but may be he is just scheming. how can i tell if he has done this sort of thing to other women on the dating site and should i report it as abuse? im confused.

YOu can report him, but it won't necessarily do any good. Scammers are prevalent in Africa and the UK, but usually the countries they "work" from are corrupt and don't really care. It's your choice whether you want to continue talking to him. You should tell him you just don't have anything to help him with and see what his reaction is. Chances are you work hard for your money, just like others do, but these guys don't care. If he has 10 other women he's talking to and he manages to get them all to send him $200, then he's making a tidy profit while you're sitting over here having an attack of conscience feeling sorry for him and possibly not paying some of your bills just to help him out. Don't do it. YOu need to ask him some questions, and find out some things about him. Once he answers your questions, dig a little deeper on your own to see if he is telling you the truth. Ask him for his address here in the US, the name of his company...direct him to the US Embassy, if he claims to be an American citizen. There are all sorts of ways around this. Good luck.
Reply:I think you should tell the dating site. I got involved with a guy (we even ended up engaged) but he turned out to be a compulsive liar and now I am £8000 in debt as a result. I don't know if you can find out if he has done this to other girls, but I suggest you steer well clear, and don't let anybody take you for a mug - YOU DESERVE BETTER and if I guy isn't self sufficient it isn't worth your while to bail him out.
Reply:Can you lend me a couple of grand. I only met you last week! What did you expect. You sucker.
Reply:sounds like a scam. if you want to find for sure out let me know
Reply:For a start report him to the site. If he was that desperate for money, he would get a loan from the bank.





You don't have to meet someone online to be taken in by their lies. Its a convenient and easy way for him to do it.
Reply:Please don't let it knock your confidence. There are lots of nice people out there - he's just not one of them. Don't send him any money, and break off all contact with him; he's trying to abuse your good nature. As for reporting him, only you can decide that.
Reply:He should be ashamed. Don't give him another thought. Just keep on being yourself. You did the right thing.
Reply:i think you should definately report him for abuse, thats really bad what a sycho
Reply:i'd report him because it does sound like he has done this before and you wouldn't want him doing this to anyone else. he was grooming you for those few weeks. never mind, it was a lesson well learnt so don't take it too hard!
Reply:I know someone that fell for a guy from America on the Internet. He told her his mum needed some medical care and needed to borrow £500. She foolishly sent the cheque and never spoke to him again. Unfortunately there are people out there like that, and i know its easy to get sucked in sometimes on the net.


Tell him to F**k off!
Reply:Welcome to the real world, girlfriend.





PS can you lend me a tenner.....the cats are hungry
Reply:Look sweety, whilst the internet is a fantastic tool and has revutionised conumications like all other good things it is being abused by people like this guy.


If he traveled on buisness then he must surely have a travel insurance.


Secondly if he is a buisness man do you think he would need anybodies money?


Thirdly never ever send money to people like these, you work for your money so spend it wisely.
Reply:Wow, now that sucks!!! I do not know what to tell you other than report him to the site you where you were!!!
Reply:please i wouldnt ask my real friends for money let alone an internet friend.... i would never write him again.
Reply:Look this is one of the oldest "scams" of all time. First of all you really do not even know this person, secondly do you really think this person will pay you back. The answer is "no". These type guys try to play on peoples emotions. It is called "scamming". Sounds like he is pretty good at it. Look do not give this guy a red cent and you will not even regret not doing it.
Reply:This is a con.


Why don't you publish his email number on here and we can all zonk him with emails and flood his system
Reply:He's trying to use you, don't give people you don't know money!
Reply:Forget about it, live and learn and dont be so trusting in future....
Reply:I would report him, i would also write a passage on the web site and declare his name so that anyone else wont be affected by his scams!


really sounds like he is just after you money, you can do better,


Do not ignore this as its not fair to the next girl that he tries to con,
Reply:DON"T SEND ANY MONEY, tell him you can't. If he still talks to you then maybe he's on the up and up, but keep an open mind that he may be scheming you anyway. ASking money from someone your just e-mailing don't sound good.
Reply:you know theres something wrong going on here,keep your money in your knickers.
Reply:its your word against his love id just stop talking to him you get this sort of thing all the time its pot luck if u get some one whos honest its up to you if it was me id delet him from my address book good luck eny way
