    LOL... You had me going there a for a second I_A. I actually had a feeling of joy when I saw you post ;)

    Its amazing but people do still fall for this type of thing. I read a story in the Mail last Sunday about a fella who had run up £20,000 in loans as he "fell in love" with someone on the internet and sent them cash and waited at airport. Of couse they never turned up and the cash dissapeared.

    He said he would stick to dating local girls in future :rotfl:

    Should I feel guilty?? If I don't go ahead they won't donate some of the millions of dollars to such worthwhile charities such as
    Charity Organisation, Motherless Babies homes, and helpless disabled people in the World.

    I wonder who you would let know about this obvious scam though.

    I have a 78 year old MIL who uses email a lot but is really taken in by scams. she is just so trusting and while my FIL is there he wont let her do anything but when he goes she''ll be fair game to them.
