Said person found me on yahoo chat somehow. We chatted for a few weeks and he said he was in Nigeria and he was a miner.It came time his job was finished and he did not have enough money to leave. He had mailed a package to Sacramento with his treasures and they were worth a lot of money. 80 thousand is what he told me. And he asked if I could help him out and he would repay the money after he got to Sacramento to sale his treasure. He would pay back what he owed and then some. So I foolishly sent this person $1,500.00. I actually sent it to a person by the name of Alice Link for him. So I never heard from him and the other day I emailed him and told him that I was in a bad spot and if he was doing any better could he possibly afford to repay me my money. He said yes he was in better condition and he had already been to Sacramento and whatever. He asked me if I loved him and wanted to be with him. I gave him no answer. So he said he would mail me a check. So yesterday he wanted to know if he sent me a check for $5,500.00 dollars could I get the money somehow before the check cleared the bank. I was to keep $ 2,000. and the rest I was to send to the state of Michigan. I told him no I would not do that. At that point I realized that he was a scammer for sure and have deleted him from all my things.
