09/28 Love Scams?

Quote From: becky_i

I thought I was the only one. It seems to be more common than I thought except I got scammed not once, not twice, but three times by three different men. All three living in Nigeria. One of them told me he was living in London. The only way I found out differently was when I got my phone bill. The bill said Nigeria. These guys did not find me in a dating website nor did they find me in a chatroom however I have been active in a couple of them a while back. They found me just from my Yahoo profile. Girls be careful what you put in your profile.  I ended up with a total of 3 bogus money orders. A lot of packages in my livingroom with the bills to go with them. And  a big headache. I am ready to delete my yahoo messenger all together except that is the way I talk with my brother too. He lives up in West Virginia and I am in Texas. Thanks for letting me get this off my chest.
Take a look at 419eater.com for hundreds of examples of Nigerian scams. Arm yourself with knowledge.
