Complaint 289824 Details

I have been talking to above name person who contacted me through skype one year ago, he was on a cruise ship to Ghana where he was contracted to work for several months,
He stopped contacting me a few months ago, then in August he resumed contact with me, he has been asking for money ever since and has said that the company he works for has paid his salary into his bank account back in the UK and he can't access it in Ghana
He booked a one way ticket from Ghana to the UK and then was coming out to NZ to meet me, however, I was of the understanding the company were paying his fare home, he supposedly had an accident earlier in the month and asked for 2500 cedi, then he informed me that the fare for his flight was 3000 cdi, or 1500 USD, whihc is about 1700 NZD, I told him I didn't have any more money to send him and that I couldn't get it anywhere.
HE told me that I had to get it because he was coming to me and was going to pay my debts then we would go back to the UK and live.
Since Tuesday this week I have not heard from him as I didn't send any money and I have been telling him ofr ages that I dont have any, but i managed to find some and have just about put myself into major debt over this, the flight got cancelled and I haven't had any other contact with him
