Met this guy named Williams (Sasha) Osagie on Sept 22, 2012 on Match. His user email was [email protected] and his personal email was [email protected] He has a similar story as someone filed on here a few months earlier. Basically he kept messaging me and trying to get to know me better and I did communicate back with him. He was moving into this relationship a little too fast and I knew something was fishy when that happened. He gave me a sob story telling me he was stuck in Benin City, Nigeria trying to get enough money to come back to handle his father's inheritances. After hearing the stories, I agreed to send him $500 on Sept 29 to help him pay for the remaining amount of his airline ticket because it had a price rise. I went ahead and western union the money over to him. He did receive the money the next day. Due to bad traffic commuting from his city to the main city, he missed the flight. The airline would not let him fly standby the next flight and when I was told this I was suspicious because any airline lets you do so. A few days later he re-purchased the ticket, but could not complete it because there was an additional fee to it. He asked for another $800 to cover booking fees, taxes, and other things. I began to get suspicious. I sent the money again to cover it all. This was still not enough. He had the booking done, and now he needed to do some ESTA stuff and deal with immigration. He asked for another $900 to be sent to cover the fees. On Oct 3 I sent the remainder of the money to him so he can handle it. Williams emails me back saying he went to the western union for money and got robbed. All the money has been gone and he is not stuck at the airport. At this point, everything was very fishy and I did not and could not send anymore money. He has been emailing me and giving me so many sob stories, but everything is out of my control now.

- Oh my God... I'm sorry to hear that he got you too. This is identical to what happened to me. I keep asking myself why I did it, I knew better before I gave him the money. He was so good at what he did though.:-(

- I knew better too, but his story seemed real. Anyways what done is done and I just take it as a learning experience. I'm glad I stopped when I did because if I didn't I would be in a deeper hole. Bottom line he is a scammer and I have blocked him from all contacts. I'm glad I decided to google and research more. He immediately got so angry when I confronted him and told him about this. Haven't heard from him since I confronted him. Glad he's out of my life. I don't need that. He is a sorry excuse for a man. Hope you recovered from this too.
