I have heard of this happening, and the person is not even overseas. Somehow your ex's identity has been compromised. I wonder if she knows. It is definitely a scam, I hope everybody realises that. Where are you these days pws25, the last I remember I think you were coming to the east over the top through Darwin.

Why is it these people think everyone but them came down in the last shower with only half a brain? Who would be stupid enough to just hand over money to a total stranger? I know, they're out there, and they'd have to be desperately lonely or gullible to be sucked in by this crap. As a single I have all sorts of foreign looking blokes "falling in love" with my photo. They're all about the same age, the English is very poor, they're all in the British Army but they have US insignia on their uniforms. They all have a 10 year old son and they are widows. Someone writes the script and they just make a few personal changes. They're all from Nigeria. They're crooks!!!! Do no send money!!!!

On todaytonight tonight, a chap had been caught out by a scam. He received a txt saying he had won US $900,000 and they needed him to reply with certain details. He followed their instructions and was now crying " They may have stolen my identity" etc.
Now, I recieved the same last week. I immediately deleted it. It was so obviously a scam.

CG...it is a shame, but there are people out there that are lonely and gullible that should not be criticised for their inability to comprehend a scam like us
I feel for them and the more we are telling people about these scams, the more chance these poor buggers will get the message.....and not get a pasting from the ones that know better.

I have responded to a few snail mail approaches when I've been advised I've won a huge lottery. I have a bit of fun by returning the paperwork in the envelope supplied, but I don't add a stamp, so when it gets there they have to pay for it, + the fine. I write on the paper something like, "Please forward the money to the postal address provided. I hereby authorise you to retain the fees required to forward the remaining amoung to me." I never hear from them again. There's specific address in Strawberry Hills, Sydney which seemed to be the distribution centre for many snail-mail scam schemes, so I reported it to the ACCC. I've never heard from them again. As for the singles, I sometimes continue conversation by email or the site, and just ask questions about them. I've caught many out. They claim to live in places in Australia which don't match their description, or I know the place and they're not in it. I report them to the sites they start from, but I doubt anything gets done about these crooks in Nigeria or the Netherlands. One bloke was so in love with my photo he was going to kill himself if I didn't return his "love". I told him that was up to him. I've done nothing to encourage him and that it was all in his own mind. I think he lives to scam another day. At least we know all the crooks and scammers live in the same place. NOT! Just be careful out there folks.

All the experts in these matters emphasise that one should NEVER respond to a scam or suspect scam in any way shape or form. Scams can be reported to the appropriate body. Google "report a scam'" for details.
