Love Rats

No,not you,some people,men as well as women fall for these things because they're lonely and the attention is welcome,and once these merciless people have them hooked they fleece them.So sad

I do find these stories equally sad and pretty unbelievable _but I totally understand how these women and men get caught up in these awful situations.

They are lonely, vulnerable victims, who are groomed and set up.

I think the people who do this, and sometimes it’s groups of people targeting a dozen or so people, or more, in one hit, are simply among the most disgusting people ever.

Would I ever fall for this? I really like to think not, but who knows, if something happened to my DH and I was suddenly left alone and lonely and grieving……

all men are rats

Read the title of the thread and imagined affection for rodents.

Daddima I also cannot believe how stupid and gullible these women are. Why would you give money go someone you've never met? They lie all the time, pretending their child has to have an operation or they will die, or some such story to gain sympathy. No-one would get a penny out of me.

No they are not.😡

It’s not just women. I knew a local guy in his sixties who fell online for a ‘Russian’ woman twenty years younger than him. She conned him out of thousands, he didn’t tell anybody he was giving her money, just that he had met somebody online and had fallen in love with her - the money was ostensibly for her to come to the UK. It broke him when he found out.

Yes they are!

It’s about SEX. He thought he was going to get plenty! 🤣 serves him right.

Please don’t go there. You will regret it if you do.
