    I met two Scammers on Spark.Com's Dating web site. The way it starts is they send you a flirt, then you reply to it and you are in their grip. The the man tells you his yahoo email address and asks you to add them to your chat. I never had a yahoo chat before. He said it is real easy. When you get on the chat they tell you that they will delete their Dating profile and ask you to do the same so they can have you in their full control. Then he sends you poetry. Asks you what kind of gift would you like? He is a jewellery maker, and wants to make you a Promise ring. He tells you that he loves you. Then he has to leave and go sell his father's land in Africa. He takes his laptop with him and keeps in contact with you. While he was at the Lawyers office his motel where he stayed was robbed by robbers! Oh my! He has no money or credit card, and they took his laptop. He is using the computer in the lobby. He has to leave the motel and has no money for another place to stay and no money for food? Could I send him some money?

    I knew he was a scam. I was educated about scams when I felt one coming on. I went to web sites that told me how to spot one. He had a Scammers profile. I just wanted to see how he played the game. I told him I had no money. Then he said his investor could only send money to the States. Could I open an equity account so his Lawyer could send the investors money? He sent me a form that wanted my bank account number. Then the limit on the account, and even my social number. I told him no. Then he asked me could I send him $100. By western union so he could have a place to sleep and food to eat. I told him no, I couldn't afford to send him any money. I had to delete him from my Yahoo account, and he even messaged me on Face book! I reported that to Spark.
