I met him on meetme/myyearbook. I added him to my yahoo mess. and started talking to him. He said his name was Joe Kelvin for Louisville Ky. But that he worked for HP the computer co! He told me that he was in Africa working! We have talked online for a couple of months. He found out I was a single Mom...So he said he would like to help me out with money and has a friend from the Massachusetts of Technology send me a check! The check was for 1,950.38 us dollars! He then told me that this check was for some computers he sold them and that I should send him 1,500.00 of it back to him! After I told him I would not send any money to Africa he made me believe that he was coming to see me and needed the money to leave Africa. So I cashed the check and money gramed him 1,500.00 of it to somebody in Logas, Nigeria!
Then he told me he was detained in Chicago! and that he needed me to send 300.00 more to Logas, Nigeria for his hotel bill! So once again I sent the money he asked of me!!! Foolishly going against my self in the first place! Today I tried to get into my bank account and tried to get some money. My account was frozen! And the check he had some one send me had bounced! And now I'm out 1,9500.00 dollars!
