Hello everyone, you may remember me from yesterday and I tried to update the post but it ended up getting locked. So just in case it didn’t update I wanted to thank everyone for your prompt and unanimous response. Whether you thought it was real or not, it was. But to put everyone at ease my bank information is safe and secure and I have blocked “her” and deleted my WhatsApp and the app itself. Honestly debating on deleting my Instagram as well. Take a break from it and focus on building myself back up both physically and mentally so that I can prevent this from happening in the future. Thank you so much everyone for the wake up call I knew I needed but wanted to ignore out of the slim chance it was something real.

  3. I’m glad you reached out. And I’m really sorry to have read about your situation! I hope you didn’t lose any money, but now you know.

    Also, there’s a lot of fun YouTubers who are scambaiters (people who waste a scammer’s time) that you should check out – it might get a laugh out of you. Kitboga, Atomic Shrimp, and Jim Browning are my favorites – also a hilarious TED Talk by James Vietch – and it’s actually really informative. There’s been a few times that I actually found myself spotting a scam faster than I would have before because I watched so much of these guys!

  8. Sorry to hear bud, I know it sucks being lonely but keep your head up! You’ll get through it 🙂

  9. >Update: I think my (M22) girlfriend (F25) is a scam/scammer

    *Your Indian/Nigerian boyfriend. I still don’t believe this.

  10. Man I saw gift cards and I instantly recognized it. Shoutout to kitboga on YouTube, that guy does god’s work when it comes to scammers

  12. Glad to hear. Hope you’ll get back or there and meet someone in person eventually

  13. I’m so sorry you are going through this. Figuring this out must feel just like a breakup. Take good care of yourself. Also, you are not an idiot; you are a human. Hang in there.
