Share some online dating scammer stories.

Well, there was a case where a girl met a so - called Nigerian doctor on an online dating platform. At first, he seemed very charming and caring. He sent her sweet messages daily. But after a while, he told her he was in trouble with some medical equipment being held at the port and needed a large sum of money to get it released. She was hesitant but he convinced her by saying it was a short - term loan and he'd pay her back with interest. Of course, once she sent the money, he disappeared.

One of the main patterns in these stories is the over - the - top flattery. Scammers will shower the victim with compliments to make them feel special and lower their guard. They'll also seem very interested in the victim's life very quickly. Then comes the request for financial help. It could be for something like helping a sick relative or getting out of a legal trouble. And they'll keep asking for more money as time goes on, always with new and seemingly urgent reasons.

Typically, they start by creating a very alluring persona. They might say they are successful in business or have a high - status job. Then they quickly form an emotional bond with the victim through sweet talk. Next comes the request for money for some 'urgent' situation like a business deal gone wrong or a family emergency.

Sure. One common online scammer story is the fake lottery win. Scammers send emails or messages saying you've won a huge lottery but need to pay a small fee to claim it. People fall for it thinking they'll get a big payout, but in reality, they just lose the fee they paid.

One common Animal Jam scammer story is about the item scamming. Some scammers would pretend to trade a rare item but then at the last moment, swap it with a common item. For example, they'd show a rare spiked collar in the trade window initially, but when you click accept, you end up getting a plain blue collar instead.

I heard a great story. There was a guy who joined an online dating site looking for someone to travel with. He matched with a girl who was also passionate about traveling. They started planning virtual trips together, sharing all the places they wanted to visit. After a few months of this, they decided to actually meet up and go on a short trip. It was a success and they have been traveling the world together ever since.

One scary story is about a girl who met a guy on an online dating app. They seemed to hit it off and planned to meet. When they met, the guy was really pushy about going to a secluded place. She refused, but he got angry and started yelling. It was terrifying for her.

One common online dating scam story is when the scammer pretends to be a wealthy individual working overseas. They build an emotional connection with the victim, then start asking for money for various reasons like a business emergency or medical issue for a family member. Eventually, they disappear with the money.

One of the worst online dating stories I heard was when a girl showed up to a date and the guy she met was nothing like his pictures. He was at least 20 years older and about 50 pounds heavier. It was really a shock for her.

Well, here's one. My friend met a guy on a dating app. They chatted for weeks and really hit it off. When they finally met in person, the guy brought her favorite flowers. They ended up dating for a year. It was a really sweet story.
