      The victims of the Green River Killer would ask him, when they climbed in his truck, "Are YOU The Green River Killer?"

    I was watching a show called W5. A Woman in Canada lost $205,000.00 in a Catfish Scam. She went on to write a book about it and met another man online who said he would help her with the publishing. Of course they "Fell in love". He never asked for money but wanted to send her on a vacation because he was "In love". He sent her on vacation to Ethiopia. He couldn't get to Ethiopia but asked her to fly to Hong Kong to meet connect. Before the flight he sent her several new outfits to wear. She flew to Hong Kong and is now in prison. The buttons on the clothing were filled with cocaine.

      I saw that, too. Who takes a romantic vacation to Ethiopia and not only stays the entire time when he didn't show up but then goes on to Hong Kong to meet him? I have been blessed to travel to many countries and many times alone for business. But, even with an agenda for business, I educated myself about where I was going. If I was going to countries or cities with reputations for certain crimes, I was vigilant. Even meeting people on planes can be suspect. In this day and age everyone must be vetted to end up in your personal life. It is sad but true. That woman on the show had a defence as to be convicted the person must know they were carrying drugs to be convicted. Since HK has gone back to China, I suspect that will be very difficult to prove. Interestingly enough, when I went to Thailand on business I was warned not to buy customized shoes, clothes with and without BUTTONS, small decorative pieces of furniture, statues or anything to be sent on to my home. They hide drugs in the buttons, hollowed out heels of shoes, in hems of clothing, in linings and handles of handbags and a million places decorative items. Once they have your address, when you get home you are burglerized. Or, if you buy several things from one store, to make packing to leave easier, they provide a free piece of luggage with everything packed. Just grab the bag and go. When you get to the baggage claim, your souvenir bag wasn't there. It was long gone the min it hit the belt or was relayed on to places unknown by a very well compensated luggage handler. Unbelievable.

Emailing a stanger her SSN. When that's a number one NO rule that has been around.

      It’s astonishing how desperate they are to have a “romantic” partner. Such intensity is supposed to diminish once the reproductive years have past by, as it’s entirely redundant. However, these sad older folk are clearly crippled by this inappropriate yearning, which is unfortunately accompanied by a propensity for delusional thinking and cognitive deficiencies. They absolutely require the supervision of a competent legal guardian (selected by a _competent_ advocate, not themselves).
      BTW, I wouldn’t be surprised to discover that some of these victims are suffering from significant age-related mental decline, including things like mini-strokes and dementia. It’s a bit hard to believe that they’ve successfully accumulated wealth throughout their lives whilst being so gullible and naive. A recent impairment of mental faculties is a reasonable explanation for some cases.

He smashed his Xbox because he accidentally ran over a sock with a push mower. By the time we met, she was dating a guy my fiance's age who refused to work and just played video games and took Xanax all day. The only thing I will give him credit for is that he cleaned the house. After him she dated my fiance's dad's friend and she is still with him, unfortunately.

      Is the social secury number so important? I never lived in the US. ^^
      In my country, we have a national number that no one but the person herself is supposed to know. But even if someone discovers that number, he can't do anything, because the ID card is still mandatory (and making a fake ID card is as hard as making a fake bank card, because it's an electronic card too - if the devices can't read them, it's not considered valid).
      If someone steals your ID (therefore, discover your national number, that is writted on the card), he still can't do anything, because the ID Card is protected by a code (again, like a bank card).
      The scammer CAN'T:
      - Ask a new card pretending being you and having lost the card, or that the card has been stolen. Because, the first step to have a new card (no matter because you lost it or it has been stoled) is going to the police office to be identified.
      - Ask a new code, pretending being you and having forgotten it. Because: 1) the new code will be sent at your official adresse per mail (and he can't pretend having moved out, because he will be required to go to the local administration, where he will be identified, to change the adress). 2) You have to go to your local administration (where you're identified) with the mail you recieved to activate your code.
      Furthermore, the national databanks have your ID photo. So, if the scammer tries to make a fake card with his photo instead of yours, it would be immediately noticed by the administration. :)

      I bet you're married or have a significant other? I am 52 and been doing online dating sites on and off for 22 years after the man whom I thought I was going to marry and who claimed I was the love of his life decided I was not the one. There really was not many options for meeting singles once you are out of school unless you date people you work with which is never a good idea and rarely works out. I have met many men online some of whom lasted awhile. I have yet to be asked for money by a romance scammer, probably because it never gets that far. I can tell when someone's fake plus they say they love me before even meeting me and it's a huge turn off. I make people talk to me on the phone or FaceTime if I'm interested and also get their social media info to make sure they're real. The types of people that keep talking to and falling for scammers are usually unable to be alone, used to being married many years, and cannot handle being alone so even if they have doubts something is real, they will deny and push those away because the attention they're getting from these men online is more important than money. And they blindly believe and trust these total strangers because they are too nice, can't defend themselves, desperate for love, create a fantasy in their minds, and believe what they want to believe. It's disgusting they're willing to sell their home and give away their inheritance to a total stranger online over their own children or other relatives, but they believe the scammer who says they have millions of dollars in an account they cannot get to yet until they get out of the military and promise to pay the victim back and tell them this is the only way theu can meet, be together, and live happily ever after. The lonely, usually very unattractive victim believes them bc they want to have that companionship they can never find in real life. It's really sad.

      Thank you! We inherited several hundred thousand dollars when my in-laws died. It’s in an investment portfolio, not our checking account! And most people have at least one credit card if something happened to their bank account. The scammers and their victims must live in the 1930’s!

      Way back pre-Internet, I had a guy that worked for me that had such bad body odor that I had to literally counsel him to use soap when he bathed. He met some woman in Canada on a bulletin board and after chatting for a while decided he was going to leave his wife and move up there and live with her. I remember his wife coming in to work bawling her eyes out, it was so sad. He was back within two weeks. Turns out there are some things you just can learn about people without meeting face-to-face (like horrible B.O.).

I need to get money to buy a car. Can you help me out? I said let me see what I can do… click! Block! No more chatting. It really is that simple.

      @@lisah8070 Interesting joke. A long time ago a friend insisted another friend try the dating apps since she was having great success on them. Our friend connected with a "Greek" gentleman who texted her, night and day. She couldn't work because he had so many things to text about. She decided to give him a call. When she did, the voice that picked up was the usual accent. He immediately hung up. Then, get this, he told her, he had to hang up because he was on the highway at high speed. So, he couldn't talk. But she could continue to text. 🤣🤣It was a great laugh over cocktails that night.

      I talk to Scammer’s all the time because they have invaded an anonymous social media app that I use. Many of them claim to be scam victims in order to make the victims feel more confident that they are legitimate. Lots of scammers messaging me saying that they want to be my sugar daddy or sugar mommy. They claim that they will pay me in allowance of some sort of amount as high as $9000 a week. But first you have to pay $25 or $100 or whenever because according to them they have been scam in the past by sugar babies that would block them after getting paid and they bought money from you in order to prove that you won’t block them. That doesn’t make any sense at all because you can still block them at any time in the future.
      Something else that I’ve been told it’s like really really ridiculous. Somebody messaging me said they were offering a job. I knew it was a scam. And when I asked them why they would use an anonymous social media app to find employees instead of LinkedIn or CareerBuilder they said that they were scammed by a person who they found out one of those sites who ran off with money that they sent them to use for payroll. The scammer claimed that they had to rush the hiring process and didn’t get the persons information because The employees urgently needed to be paid. And then he scarfed at it as if it wasn’t a big deal saying that it’s all good. That’s the most ridiculous thing that a scammer told me.
