a little story to give you all hope .. there a real girls out there
i started talking to a girl from this site last May , things went ok , so she said we should meet etc , so i got on a plane to god knows where , she was there and was just as she had seemed via the internet, we decided to go for a UK fiancee visa which she got in jan 2007 and now she has lived with me for 3 weeks , so yes i do know there are a lot of scammers , but if you look hard enough there are real girls on the net .I have never been scammed because i can see the red flags a mile away and if you can not see them well ........ as an old english saying goes .. "a fool and his money are soon parted"
I am not trying to lecture anyone , but i do read a lot of forums and they all seem so scared of scamers , which you will find in all walks of life .if something or someone is too good to be true, it most likely is !!
