I'm trying to figure out if the OP is, in fact, a joke...

My fish is back, "she" is obviously hooked on me, she got a new email addy

my message sent again asking her what airport she will be arriving at.

Toying with them is ok but I'll give you a bit of advice.

1. never give any personal info out
2. if your using a non protective email. Yahoo, hotmail, or one provided by a service provider. if you are stop replying and forget about it.

Its possible for them to track your location down from an unsecure email and if you have p****d one of for them to locate you and use one of there associates in the country (which there are many) and you get a very dangerous person threatening you in person. This is not unheard of.

3. PLEASE don't think im exagerating (Sorry can't spell) these people are serious criminals and not idiots they know as much about computers and we do and can do the same things. If you still don't believe me go to https://www.419eater.com and look for yourself.

4. if you feel ok carrying toying with them remember these people are complete liars, don't believe a word they say, don't buy into whatever they say (and they can be very persuavie), never give your personal details out and never send them anything, Dont even make phoney forms etc. if they believe it they can use the info on some other sucker.

These people make billions of pounds from around the world every year. They pry on something and once they get a bit it starts of small. ie £50 you think ok I can loose that. Then you get another and you think fair enough, soon theres more and more.

Eventually the amounts get bigger and bigger and the person feels the pay off has to be coming soon, or they have put too much in now to loose.

read the web page on my last post on here, people have become bankrupt and lost house etc because of this.

Yes its because of greed loneliness whatever. But people od fall for it and these are professional criminals scamming you who do it all day everyday.

No the scammers never big up the person. Its far more believable if they seem like a poor desperate person.

Don't send any money you wont see her or your money again. This sounds like similar to hundreds of the scammers I've toyed with. (lil hobby of mine)

You cant say a scammer would never do this or that..they are all different.I think everyone on here will be aware of 419 .

There has been a development from my friends situation (see start of this Thread). After conning him out of over £2k she has got in contact. On the way to the airport she was hit by a car and been in a coma for 3 weeks.
She wants money for the hospital bills and money to come to england to visit her.
What sort of advice should i give him?!!??

Tell him to tell her, that he will come over and look after her and if she needs private medical care he will take her back with him to the UK:rotfl:

Sorry,did you say HE was in a coma? That would explain a lot.
But seriously,perhaps we could have a whip-round,I can offer a "50p off toilet duck " voucher...anyone else....

Tell him to give the money to you, and you'll deliver it to her personally.
