Last week I received yet another email from a total stranger telling me of her total love for me. Yes you know the ones a total con, send me some money and I will come and live happily ever after.
Well I decided to reply to one and see what happened....Play them at their own game and waste their time.
First came her email telling of her love for me, so I replied stating that she could just be my soulmate...I then received a link to a site with her pic on...obvously it was not her...So I said how lovely she was blah de blah....
Then after a couple more emails came the crunch email saying she was waiting for some money to come through and needed money transferring to meet her sweetheart etc...(She stated she lived in Russia) Probably Nigeria.
So I told her I was the poorest man in England, lived in a tent and only owned a potato....not heard from her since.
These people really get on my nerves and if people did not fall for their cons, then they would not carry on emailing people....Oh well I am sure she has moved on to someone else.
