Man Loses $200,000 to Fake Online Girlfriend

[verbalizer]

unbelievable..
ignoramus.

Ok... if you haven't even met your online 'significant other' and you believed they've been kidnapped I could see how you could get duped... but if you've been dating for 2.5 years and haven't met AND you have $200k to spare you have serious issues.

I hope the fake online girlfriend is alright...

 

[bfstev]

2.5 years and he hadnt seen her in person yet. Was this guy a troll or something?

 

[megamanx00]

A hooker would have been alot cheaper and he would have gotten more out of it 😛

 

[Guest]

I think I've seen her!!!. Send me $20,000 and I will pass on the info!!!

 

[zak_mckraken]

Wow. The guy must feel so ashamed right now. "Hello mom? Turns out I didn't have a grilfriend for the past 2 years after all..."

People should be required to have a certain IQ to use computers... it would be for their own good. I mean seriously, he wired money to nigeria, malaysia, and england? I should get in contact with him...

I have 2,000,000,000,000 dollars in an account and need his bank account number and credit card number to transfer it out of my country. I would give him 2,000,000,000 if he assists me in doing this.

LOL, people are stupid

 

[christop]

Not a smart move on his part.

 

[nomnom9608]

it's his own fault for being such a retard.

 

[lamorpa]

His definition of girlfriend strikes me as unusual.

 

[pocketdrummer]

You know, he made a terrible decision to take it seriously in the first place, but you can't ignore that the guy is probably extremely lonely. You don't know what he looks like, if he's disabled, etc. He may have chosen a "distance relationship" because he felt it was all he could have.

It's sad. No part of this is funny.

 

[COLGeek]

I am trying to decide as which is more appropriate here,

...A fool and his money are soon parted....

-OR-

...Stupid is as stupid does....

 

[maigo]

2 and a half YEARS. Dude, that sucks...

 

[isamuelson]

Two and half years and he never asked to meet?

What a maroon!

 

[Kami3k]

WTF?

 

[jwl3]

That money probably went to fund al qaeda. Either that or some nigerian fcuktard is styling and profiling down there. If idiots like this didn't fall for these scams, those spam emails we all get would not exist.

 

[ik242]

LOL what a tool, i'll be his online girlfriend...(keep those checks comming)

 

[free_radical]

Damn, so all these babelfish-translated emails I receive from women from all over the world who would like to talk to me aren't real?

 

[dkant1n]

mmh ppl will never learn
