How Do I Know If My Nigerian Boyfriend Is A Scam Or Not by whoever11: 3:24pm On Aug 17, 2023
We started dating 10 months ago...although after 10 days without an official relationship he told me he had an emergency for which he needed money and he really did, I believe. And I gave him money. That was the first time, after that I must have spent thousands of euros.

We talk all the time and also we do video-calls on the evenings, he's thoughtful, he's very supportive but his days are spent playing video games or hanging out with his friends.

Mine are spent working, often at two jobs as my parents also depend on me.

I have sent money mainly because he wants to come here but I also "maintain him and his family", he always says that if he takes a job it's not worth it. And he usually doesn't tell much about his life.

I met his mother on a phone call, also his brother. And him in person on a holiday where I paid for everything.

I am overwhelmed with so many expenses and the last time I decided to speak out...but two days later he asked me for money again.

He always talks about the future, how he will give me everything and that this is just a bump in the road...but lately I don't believe anything and I'm really fed up with the relationship.

Sometimes I think it could all be true...but sometimes I think there are more options than just depending on your girlfriend. I have friends in Nigeria but I know it's hard but who would stay in a relationship that I have literally spent all my savings on?

I really like him but lately I have lots of health problems for all the stress too...

...and I don't know what to do, any advice (?)

Ever heard of "romance scams, OP?". This is exactly what this is. Look it up! Dude probably laughs hysterically with his friends while he's hanging out and playing video games with them, and while he spends your money on his real girlfriend in Nigeria. Your money o. He don find a mumu and mugu of a white [whatever your race is] woman in Europe be that. You're working two jobs and have parents who are also depending on you. Instead of saving your money or using it to help your parents, you're sending it to one loser in Nigeria. Do your parents or anyone in your family know what's going on? You cannot be this desperate for love to be this stupid.

This is serious,there are so many genuine guys like myself that is looking for this kind of opportunity.avoid sending him money henceforth and work with you brain.you need no soothsayer to tell you you are only dating yourself. He isn't even taking you as his girl friend but his mugun.

I will advice you stop sending him money. Instead if he is ready to come to you over there and that both of you will get married. Anything apart from that is weasting of money and time

YOU ARE BEING SCAMMED, financially and emotionally. That guy does not love you, heck he doesn't even like you.

For him, you are the means to an end. What end?
To constantly send him money to foot his bills aka maga... or to eventually pay his trip to come meet you abroad, where he will pretend to be humble so as to get Green Card.

After some years he may travel to Nigeria in disguise of attending a family friend's wedding.
Note, that is his wedding to his Nigerian wife. Forget all the lies he tells you about how special and different you are from Nigerian women. grin

He wants your money and will say and do anything for that to be a success. Cut him off cold turkey now! No explanations, no closure, no deliberation. Cut that mo'forka off now!
