Where does it come from?


Okay, so if you are a teenage lad from Kumasi, Ghana, where are you going to get photos of some gorgeous babe with which to scam money out of some FOBM (Fat Old Bald Man) on the internet?

Well, the Internet, obviously.  There's no shortage of pretty girls on the Internet.  If you are interested, you can do a search on their chosen photo using Google Image, and it will probably take you to some porn site.  I don't usually bother - because who cares where they get the pics from?


Madly, some of them use their regular profile, and just stick a couple of pretty girl pics at the top.  Scammers, if you are reading this, just don't bother - it's a huge red flag.

Others set up a brand new profile, blank except for a couple of pretty girl pics.  It's another red flag, I'm afraid, Mr Scammer.


Haha!  Was chatting with a scammer and she sent me a nude photo, as they do.  But forgot to crop the Janessa Brazil dot com link from the corner!  Obviously I realised that they were being harvested from porn somewhere ,😃. But I love to catch them out




I had a lovely one where the photo was sent twice, once with the Lingerie Catalog logo, once without.  I pretended not to notice.

Another used the name and photos of a gorgeous Swedish fitness model - lots of photos of pretty girl in yoga pants.  Usually they change the name to something wacky - this one kept the same name.

The only one that nearly fooled me was a picture of a normal girl - no skimpy outfit, no model girl looks.  She told me that she was Polish and worked as a cook at a US Army base in Wroclaw.

"Dobre dzien, jak sie masz?" I said.  (My Polish is limited to Hi, how are you).

"What?" she said

"Ha ha, where are you really from?"

And she blocked me. But is usually ends up with me reporting them to Facebook, and Facebook usually, not always, zaps them

The Chinese Bitcoin Scammer

A pretty Chinese woman sends me a friend request.  She doesn't fit the pattern of the West African love scammers.  No boobs, for a start.   She seems pleasant enough, so I chat and wait for the scam to make itself apparent.   It's much more subtle than the love scammers.  In fact, to start with, if I didn't know it was a scam, I wouldn't be able to tell.  Eventually she gets to the point.  She has been investing in cryptocurrency and wants me to join in.   Yu Qing Ning is clearly doing well, but sadly my friend Josef Vissarionovitch lost $200k in a recent crypto crash (there's always a recent example of people losing vast amounts).  Miss Yu gives up and vanishes from my life.   It seems that Miss Yu isn't for real, to my amazement.  But I would never have guessed that she was a modern slave in a Burmese scam factory.  Check out this CNN exposé Here's where Miss Yu comes from

So Why Hangouts?

Almost all the beautiful girls who want to share my life online try to persuade me to stop using Messenger and change to WhatsApp or Google Hangouts. Obviously they are up to no good, s o, naturally, I don't want to do this.   I do have WhatsApp, and even use it.   And I have had Google Hangouts ever since Mr and Mrs Google first invented it, though I haven't used it for years and years.   But of course I'm not going to say that to the scammers.   So first way to mess with their heads is to feign ignorance.  Well, I've worked in Tech Support, I can do ignorance.   "What is WhatsApp?" "Oh, for chatting on line?  I use a thing called Messenger" "How much does it cost?  Really?  Excellent" "Oh, I don't know how to do that stuff" Eventually she persuades me to try to download it from the App Store "Access Denied" "Am I doing something wrong?" Eventually I sug...

Welcome to Scammerama!

There's a beautiful girl half my age who wants to be my friend on Facebook.  Oddly, despite being utterly gorgeous and a beauty queen from Brazil to boot, Ellie Zwonke has only been on Facebook for two days and has no friends at all.  And she has chosen me, fat old balding guy, to fall in love with and wants to share her life with me.  I suppose I must be irresistible to women?  I don't like to boast, but hot babes get in touch every day.  Models, students, fashion designers, all sorts of cuties.  Curiously, although they come from Florida, Texas and California in the main, they almost all now live in Kumasi, Ghana.  Now I've never been to Kumasi, but listen guys, the density of hot blondes in the population must be quite astonishing.  Now before you go on the Air Ghana website to enquire about tickets, let me share with you this photo of Elizabeth Sarpong: Elizabeth has another photo in her profile, and oddly enough, it...
