an email from a match.com guy whose wife died and he is raising a 6 yr old and needs help, Heir to a fortune and in London now while court proceeding go on, the money may be caught up in court so needs money to "relocate" from california to move close to me because he "loves me" after only a week of yahoo IM talk. Can pay back the money when he gets his "fortune" from his deceased mothers estate soon but wants to move NOW to be close to me. Tells me how I can get money from home equity. He "can not get video" on the computer and only had only 3 pictures of himself (a very goodlooking man) because the rest of his pictures are on his computer back home in California.
How did I figure out it was a scam? The number he called me on after asking him to so many times was from Nigeria not from London where he was supposed to be. The voice on the phone was clearly Nigerian broken English and conversation and call kept very short. 1-234-808-298-9899 ETHAN
