I have this girl whom I met on the internet. It was not a gay or lesbian site, but a relationship site for people above 50. she said that she was 32 . She was nice and to be honest I liked her a lot and was drawn to her.I established an email acct for privacy and a cell phone
she was OK for a couple of days then she broke contact for a couple of days then returned with vehemence. She sent pics and was very remorseful and claimed that she loves me. Then while chatting one day she implied very cleverly that she is running out of money for SMS”s and internet. She hinted that my help will be welcomed….as stupid old man I did promise her to transfer some money via western union ( 100 $ ).then I got this email from her full of love religion and similar nonsense. It raised the alarm in my head.
I like her and if she is genuine I like to help her but hw can I tell
