I used to work at a major retailer that did MoneyGram wire transfers. The number one most common scam was the overseas romance one. I don't know how many times I saw men and women of varying ages come in trying to wire money to a scammer. Every time I suspected a scam, I would ask them if they met the receiver in real life or spoke with them on the phone as I discreetly handed them a pamphlet about common Internet scams. Most times, the people would back out of the transaction and leave slightly embarassed. Occasionally, someone would refuse to believe me and I would have no choice but to send the money and then hope that the report I would have to fill out and send in to MoneyGram would get processed and the money refunded before the transaction finalized and the money was gone. I hate scammers!

I think it would be fun just to screw with their mind. Give him your number ....of the local FBI or police or CIA. They always want money. Wire him monopaly money. Just fuck with his head.

I like the idea of scamming the scammer, have done so a few times myself in the past, well, not to the point where there was any harm done. I usually finish the dialogue with a 'is this really the best way you can think of to make a living? You're probably a big hairy sweaty bloke in a string vest. Now piss off and leave me alone' message, or words to that effect. Haven't done that for a while though. I do feel really sorry for the people who are taken in. Usually someone in a really vulnerable position for one reason or another. Terribly unjust and harmful, and all for the sake of a few quid.

So far the only fake that I run into here, is that sometime AdultFriendFinder xmatch Sex Finder Site xmatch Sex Finder Site sends out emails on behalf of members, so I feel a little smaller when I find out that AdultFriendFinder xmatch Sex Finder Site xmatch Sex Finder Site send an email, and not the profile user. Because of this I also find myself a little smaller when I have to ask whether or no a real message or friend request was sent. Pretty catch 22.
