What a crazy afternoon it’s been. My neighbour walked over about 3 hours ago, crying and sobbing away. Turns out she was upset that her sister had just been bilked out of $65k by some con she contacted at Christianmingle.com . There’s many warnings on Google about this site populated with not so nice folks. From what I understand you get to converse on the website only twice with a person and after that it’s private email.
Apparently from what she tells me, her sister went to website because she was lonely and wanted to meet a nice Catholic man for dating. Her sister who is 58 sent this guy the money because he said he was from her city but currently doing contract work in Syria. He needed the money to cover payroll because his bank couldn’t send it for whatever reason. I know this woman is as religious as they get but when confronted by her sister as to whether she sent the guy money, she lied at first. Well, she’s now broke. Good Catholic girl conned and turned liar, probably going to cost her a few ‘Hail Mary’s” as well.
This guy was good. Set the hook by sending her a floral arrangement after she had some eye surgery done. Came with a love letter. She’s never met this apparent 65yr old who, after you look at it, must have sent her a photo of himself taken 40 yrs ago. Christ Almighty, how did she not see this as a con? One part of me feels sorry but the other side says she deserves it just for being stupid.
