Thank you for sharing these stories. This is a very important lesson. DO NOT do naughty videos for or send naughty pictures to ANYONE, even if the person is real and you met them. This goes for EVERYONE - the scammers will do it to men as well.
I am so sorry for you! This person Adam who scammed you is a devil and should be in Nigerian jail for life! This was just heartbreaking to listen to. At least you are now divorced and can start a new life, good for you that you moved. All the best luck on building your new future, things will get better ❤
OMG, this woman was put thru hell from this scammer. After listening to many scam stories, I have never heard of a scammer continually tormenting a victim, this bastard has to be one of the worst.
This is a good reminder that if you send a picture it should be G rated. Don't send money to someone you haven't met in person. When asked cry poor. Say that you need money yourself.
Nah, this is bad advice! When requests for money or pics happen--IT'S TOO LATE. Better advice: don't flirt w a stranger & get hooked. An addict will do ANYTHING for supply! Chat briefly & meet or MOVE ON
Even if you are in a real romantic relationship, NEVER, send pictures or videos that can compromise you. One day you are fine with that person and the next everything is so screwed. Is so common sense. Hope she learned her lesson and hope one day that scammer and all scammers pay in jail time the horrors they inflict on their victims.
Wow! This is really terrible. I hope her and her family is able to heal well from this. It is great that she shared her story to help spread awareness, and as a lesson to others. I have watched/listened to many Romance Scam stories, and I cannot understand how, in extreme cases like this one, the victim chooses the "supposed lover", over themself. What I mean is, that if a "supposed lover" askd one to do something that would jeopadize one's self, why choose to do that thing??? Like getting loans, selling one's home, emptying one's life savings, etc., especially not having met the supposed lover in person. There is no obligation to that person...
Wow. I can’t imagine. I just wish people would realize to NEVER send any naked photos or videos to ANYONE! Once they are out there, you can’t get them back. Years ago I had struck up an online friendship with the uncle of another online friend of mine. After a week of chatting (we were both interested in art) he suddenly sent me a photo of his (junk) I was so shocked. I replied that I don’t do sexting and blocked him. If someone asks you to send “adult” videos or pics of yourself, BLOCK THEM IMMEDIATELY!
This was a heart breaking story. I’ve been talking with a woman who claims she’s a nurse in the marines but then she said she’s in the army… I’m not sure if she’s a scammer so I’m being careful
A former aquantance of mine got scammed many years ago, when we didn't have such a big online presence, nor social media crazyness. She was looking for a job and the "company" asked her for a tax for processing her paperwork or something like that. We didn't have euros back then, but compared to present sums, it would be around 200 euros or more. She paid and then the so called employers stopped answering their phone.
The government should send a weekly PSA, including a link to similar testimonies on all forms of media. Basically, beat the public over the head until the scams are no longer viable.
It’s not the governments job to protect people from them selves. Often times when victims taking money out of their bank accounts, the bank will warn them that it could be a scam. Recently I’ve heard victims saying when they’ve withdrew large sums of money, they have to sign a paper stating that they know who the recipient is. This way the bank is not liable if the victim later discovers the person is a scammer.
It may have been better if she had just blocked him as soon as he revealed his cards. Pleading, begging and showing how weak you are mentally probably is the absolute wrong thing to do.
There are some truly horrific outcomes for some of the people in the stories here. When a marriage is not fulfilling it looks as though the resulting loneliness is acute. The emotional impact is more severe than when friendships go wrong.
I hope this lady reports the Nigerian man living in Italy to the authorities there, so he can face justice for his involvement and given the boot (pun intended) back to wherever he came from.
I am late to this story. My sympathies are with her husband not her. She got herself a “fatal attraction” of sorts and it was completely unnecessary. Scammers are just the lowest form of life. Liars and thieves. I hope her husband has recovered and moved on.
Here's a thumbnail vers. of my story. A 75y/o client of mine, in Northern Cal. Widowed, 2 estranged, adult kids. Sold her house/car. raised $1.1m. Sent it all to 2 scammers. Been dealing with them for 5 yrs. Still believes they're "real". I've given up trying to talk sense into her. He things in public storage$1,600/MO. Lives out of her suit cases in motels. I'm more mad at her situation than she is.
This woman got everything she deserved. Her downfall was solely due to her own actions. I'm so glad the ex-husband used those tapes as evidence in court and got a better settlement deal. Her reputation is in ruins because of the many lies SHE told 👏🏾
So what ? Do you know anything about her marital life? You never did any mistakes in your life? You bigots who are so prompt to say out loud that you are good christians, where is your compassion ? ??
YA NEVER EVER, and I don't care if it's your spouse or BFF, give anybody anything that can be used against you. I'm sorry if this upsets anybody but ya gotta have something wrong with you to send naked pictures to ANYBODY, especially when you're already married to a jerk. So I don't have alot of pity for this woman.
Many female scammers are out there but they tend to be careful about how they do things. Many use fake female model and adult film star photos and scam men
I would had told him if your that desperate for 50 thousand dollars and have to be that childish to get it you sure need to get a lot of help mentally. Then I would had blocked him changed my profile to a different name and location.
These stories are really heartbreaking to watch. But at least someone can learn from these. These criminals are despicable criminals for what they make their victims do like bank transfers and loans on high interest b
Any one in their right mind who takes naughty pics of themselves. Even for adults & gives them to someone online. a Complete stranger. They deserve what comes to them with out thinking logically, Have to use your mind instead of heart too.
Hi William can you give me some advice please a guy I am texting wants me to deliver a parcel I just wonder why he wants me to do it ? I haven't done it William never met him
Did he send a package to your home? If not and he's asking you to accept a package , the scam will come when the fake delivery company contacts you asking for "payment" the payment will be the scam. If a package does come to your home without some mysterious delivery company asking for payment, then the contents of the package will likely be items bought with a stolen credit card and they are using you as a mule. Either way it's a scam

What a horrifying story !! I've never heard of such a terrible outcome
OMG, this woman was put thru hell from this scammer. After listening to many scam stories, I have never heard of a scammer continually tormenting a victim, this bastard has to be one of the worst.
These people have no morals. No shame or heart. So sad for this person. 😢
This isn’t the first nor last scammer to torment their victims in such a way.

Omg what a nightmare! 🤯
Thanks for sharing.
No judgment here, I appreciate you being brave enough to share your story. This will help a lot of people. God Bless!

There is no way a real marine would then say they're in the army! Your scammer got their script mixed up! Block!
That’s definitely a scammer

Very naive lady.
Bless her heart.Ive heard this one before.I wished she hadnt sent money or any videos.its a hard lesson to learn.praying for you dear.🙏🏻🙏🏻
These scammers are horrible
Very sad. Malta is about 700 miles from Italy. It doesn’t make sense to send the money to someone in Italy if Adam is in Malta.
This was particularly nasty. Usually they are just bluffing but this one was mad.
It may have been better if she had just blocked him as soon as he revealed his cards. Pleading, begging and showing how weak you are mentally probably is the absolute wrong thing to do.

This woman has suffered so much 😢
The only reason she regrets it is because he turned on her
I hope this lady reports the Nigerian man living in Italy to the authorities there, so he can face justice for his involvement and given the boot (pun intended) back to wherever he came from.
He's probably in Nigeria
My God this woman is unbelievable
First rule: Dont talk to strangers on the phone or other.
She still wanted to go to malta after being blackmailed
She learnt the hard way
Thanks so much.

Mit der Dummheit, kaempften selbs die Goetter vergebens.
thank you
So ruthless.
Chilling 😢

So I don't have alot of pity for this woman.
I'm sorry but that's what Cheaters deserve 💯
Surprised Adam didn't give her more time
How do women scam men? I guess it is not as intricate as the men scamming women.
Many female scammers are out there but they tend to be careful about how they do things. Many use fake female model and adult film star photos and scam men
I would had told him if your that desperate for 50 thousand dollars and have to be that childish to get it you sure need to get a lot of help mentally. Then I would had blocked him changed my profile to a different name and location.
He still would have sent the photos to others
I wish she had been more honest with her husband, especially if she was so unhappy before having an affair.

Hi William no package came he doesn't have my address I wouldn't give it thank you for advising me.
I can’t seem to find your page on messenger anymore where are you at
I feel bad for her. She just wanted love.
Awful story😢
I’ll be there soon
Jesus Christ what a horror story
Tell him you’re husband will shoot them
They will laugh at that
how dare this woman blame the man. that alone shows the type of woman she really is.
Horrible!
