on line scam...told me any number of different stories..to convince me to send him money..it started in July 2011 and continued up til 2 weeks ago...each time promising to come here..with money i sent for plane fare...that happened three times..now he wants transfer money to have the money he earned going there for an oil company..transferred to my account..it seems the company will not pay him til he is in the states...or so he says...another time he said the money was picked up at western union by someone else ...and so that money was lost...another time he said he was mugged and all the money i sent up til then was taken...he said he was hospitalized because of that incident and had to pay the doctors bill before leaving...so his company said...that bill was 11,500..a wire transfer to Nigeria where this so call doctor is from and has his account still. but works in a hospital in the united kingdom where this person presently is... i still have all this information on that wire transfer and all copies of western union..why was i sending..i asked myself...and the answer is he was very good at his craft...at the beginning he was extremely religious in his beliefs and conveyed this to me and along with words of love...poetry words..i fell, so i thought in love...before i knew it i would do just about anything for a crying, begging man, whom wanted so bad to get out of that country...so he said i feel so foolish now...he continues to ask for the transfer money even now, now that i exhausted all my money, including cashing in my two annuities...getting cash advances on my charge cards and paying such high fees for this kind of transaction...i will never in my life time recover from this and have begged him to pay back..and all he can say is he needs the transfer money to get me the monies into my account...i have kept the line of communication open..til i hear what it is i should do...i have a copy also of the so called contract that was drawn up months ago...i believe it was for my benefit that he sent this to me...to convince me of its legality and foolishly it worked...i don't believe that i will get any monies back however, this type of thing must be stopped...i called western union and the said there is nothing they can do and suggested to notify the police...of which i did and they said i can make a report but it stops there..i then proceeded to call FBI in Manhattan and they said the complaints they handle must be for atleast 100,000 thousand lost..then they told me of this method...so here i am...not liking this method for i feel i would like to sit down and discuss this and bring my papers to show what i say to be truth
