Beware Of Online Romance Scams

Once in a while, I take time to read many posts on the Romance board of Nairaland.
And I have noticed many erroneous and ambiguous posts by young people who have no experience to give any beneficial advice.

I also see many others posing and posturing in vain impressionism and others posting lies.
The Papermoon scandal is still fresh on my mind.

I think it is dubious to have more than one account on Nairaland and posting under different User IDs and fooling and causing troubles all over the forums.

I see many members with dubious lives pretending to be quasi-counselors on love and marriage when they should just shut up.

The administrator cannot detect these dubious members, because most of them use public cyber cafes with different IPs.

These dubious Internet schemers and scammers are common in the Romance forums.

But, if you take your time, you can detect from their poor knowledge of the English language and their common cliche phrases in conversations.

The most annoying are those who still confess and profess to be Christians and even quote the scriptures while still engaged in their unrepentant criminal activities with dubious lives.

Most of them are predators.


I am making a compilation after a thorough investigation and the results will be published online and offline.

As those who know me will testify, I will post both e-mails and photographs of all suspects to expose them.

Whether you are black or white, I will expose you. 

why una sef dey find romance for internet?
abi no man or woman dey for una city? or maybe una dey too ugly

I posted the mails and photographs of one white babe who was actually a scammer and many Nigerian babes and Eastern European babes are online romance scammers.

One Eastern one pleaded that I should be her friend and then I invited her into our exclusive professional network. Then, she asked me to introduce her to one top American man in our forum and I obliged,  then she disappeared without trace after getting the contact details of the man.

Everybody online knows there is only one Orikinla Osinachi and my real name and office addresses are well known.
I have nothing to hide.

I am just warning those who are online to lure, seduce and swindle others to repent before it is too late.

It doesn't surprise me at all if its coming from a man that claims to be dating a girl young enough to be his grand daughter and some other (numerous) infantile conquest----

this is a joke right??

I find it creepy for adults to be boasting about such things in an open forum, in UK it is called pedophilia. Hold on!!! did you not start a similar topic about a teenager that supposedly fell for you and you were going to air your secrets here.

Don't hold your breath, my grandmother would have been too much of a woman for you.

Omotola Ekeinde's husband also should have been jailed for your own pedophilia!

And you are educated?

Desiree,
I am not your Mike Tyson.

You are just erroneous.

You cannot lie against me to escape from the main subject of this post.

Here are the facts.


1.The young lady was over 18.
2. We loved each other.
3. I am not ashamed of loving her.
4. I will not hide the truth.

I am not an old man.
I am not your uncle or your old papa.

Now, let me address your ignorance lest you wallow in it.

I am more disciplined than you even know.

I was celbate till I turned 34.
I was a strict vegetarian and animal rights activist from age 18 to 32.

I had sex for the first time at 34 and only once with the woman I wanted to marry.
But when I discovered that she was already engaged to an older man, I sent her away to reconcile with her fiance.

I got engaged to marry at 35 with a young Nigerian actress.
I took her to church and confessed that we were living in sin as live-in-lovers and vowed to stop fornication until our marriage. But she actually refused to abide by the command of God, so I left her on January 1, 1999.

I never had sex from Jnauary 1, 1999 until July 7, 2006, with the young lady I met online.
And she persuaded me to visit her.
I spent two hours to cross the sea and spent six hours on the road to see her.
When we met, I told her that she was too young for me.
She said it was not a problem for her.
"What do you want?" I asked her.
"I want you. To live with you. To be yours," she replied.
She has had a troubled past and felt unloved.
And only slept with her to comfort her and make her happy.
She even noticed my fears and asked me if I had any regrets and I shook my head.
Then, I told her that we have sinned, because fornication is a sin. So, I knelt down and asked her to kneel down with me. She obeyed and we prayed that God should forgive us our sins.
Then I left the following morning.
And I have never seen her since then and I have never had sex since that July 7, 2006.

I have nothing to hide.

I don't hide the truth.

She later lied to cover the truth. And I said I would publish everything to reveal the truth.
Then she accessed my mails and deleted all the mails and over 35 photographs of herself to destroy the evidence. To destroy the truth.

If she did not lie, I wouldn't even write or post about it.
So, it is not kiss and tell.

Just to let you know more.
That I cherish family values and virtues more than you know.

Over 1 million copies of the 9 fully illustrated family planning methods booklets in Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo and Pidgin English, I produced for the Johns Hopkins University's Population Communication Services (JHU/PCS) when I was 21 have been used for family planning education in Nigeria by the Planned Parenthood Federation of Nigeria (PPFN).

Over 250,000  copies of 3 fully illustrated booklets on harmful traditional taboos, early marriages and VVF, I produced for the Program for Appropriate Technology in Health (PATH) of Seatle, USA, have been used for public enlightenment programs in Nigeria since 1985 when I was only 22.

In 1988, I produced educational materials for girl-child education and nomadic education for the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) and I was employed as a UNICEF Program consultant for Child Survival and Development (CSD) Radio Programmes in Nigeria when I was 25.

I edited a children's magazine that the Ministry of Education in Nigeria supplied to all the government secondary schools in Nigeria from 1988 to 1990.

I became the PA to the Director of Publicity for the Alhaji Bamanga Tukur's Presidential Campaign Office on Victoria Island in Lagos, Nigeria. And I left when the evil genius IBB cancelled the primaries in 1990.

I became a studio artist until 1993 when I was assigned as the National Coordinator for the 250 NGOs of the Nigerian Network of NGOs (NNNGO) for the 1993 World AIDS Day and remained as the Information, Education and Communication (IEC) officer till 1997.

I became the Editor of Affections International magazine in 1997.
I left to become a consellor on HIV/AIDS for the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) in Nigeria and later the Editor of the Redemption Light, the official magazine of the RCCG, employed me as the Production Manager of her business magazine programme Money Wise on DBN TV from 1998 to 2000.

I left to establish my duly registered King of Kings Books International.

I produced and directed Sleepless Night in memory of the late Chief MKO Abiola, the martyr of June 12 in Nigeria.
The world premiere was held in July 2002 at the French Cultural Centre in Lagos, sponsored by the French Cultural Centre, Dele Momodu, publisher of the Ovation International magazine and my King of Kings Books International.

In 2003, King of Kings Books International sponsored the first National Literary Scholarship Essay Competition for the benefit of secondary schools in Nigeria at the Institute of  Advanced Legal Studies of the University of Lagos.

I produced my narrative performance poetry She Comes On Sundays in audio and the BBC made the broadcast with my interview in April, 2003.

In 2004, I left Lagos for Bonny Island to work on Conflict Resolution in the Niger Delta of Nigeria.
Shell International told me to meet with Shell in Nigeria and I have met with Shell, Chevron and communicated with Asari Dokubo of the Niger Delta People's Volunteer Force (NDPVF) whose father is related to the husband of my elder sister in Buguma, Rivers State in Nigeria.
You can read more on these on Nigerian Times and the BBC.

I came online in February 2005 to use the Internet for all the above literary and political goals and objectives of my commitment to sustainable human development for the nation -building of a New Nigeria in the leadership of Africa in the New Millennium.

In 2006, I made great progress online and established my own dotcoms.
I donated medical books for research and administration to the Nigeria LNG Hospital on Bonny Island, Rivers State. There were books for family and medical scholars.
I sold two very important medical books to the CMO of the hospital.

I published four books in 2006 and my co-author for one of them is a leading Nollywood director and scholar at the University of Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria. And he is working with me on my first feature Naked Beauty and also on the first symposium on Nollywood and The Global Image of Nigeria of which the Prince Claus Fund is reviewing for sponsorship.

I have an online cinema Montage Internationale being developed and I am currently developing the largest Nigerian media network online with over 20 websites under my Nigerian Times International.

God has also given the grace to preach the Good News in public transport buses and on the streets of Lagos for over 11 years. And I cannot even count the thousands of total strangers I have shared the Bread of Life with online and offline. I have a gospel blog, The Rhema.

Please, don't misunderstand me.
I have posted all these facts to help you know the truth about me.

Yet, I am not perfect.
But, I am very glad and grateful to God for the beautiful and wonderful life He has given me.

I hereby rest my case.

Therefore, please, let us focus on the subject of the post and don't attack  my personality again.

Whosoever attacks me, is wasting his or her time.
   
I am too blessed to be harassed or stressed.

The legal age of consent in UK is 16 so it can't be paedophilia to have sexual relations with an 18-year-old girl.

If you don't like kiss and tell, don't kiss

Not if it involves a 50 year old man and a girl of 18+, Let the mothers in the house talk, if they find their 18 yr old daughter being propositioned by a 50 yr old man. I know what my mum would do!!! It is a shame that poverty has made our society so corrupt that some mothers will gladly look the other way in the name of financial benefit.

Forget about the legal age of consent, there are many grey areas that can be exploited and it might become a felony on different grounds (Manipulation and deceit OR/AND corruption of a minor).

@orikinla

I have nothing against you personally, and I have no reason to want to antagonise you, all I’m saying is that” people who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones”. Your character is just as questionable as those girls’s are.

If you loved each other so much, why would build up the trust and later come here to dish our your secrets (especially if she is 18 years old). You cannot keep crying foul play if it doesn’t work all the time.

And please spare me the irrelevant information, I don’t care if you were impotent for 34 years or not. If a man your age is dating a 18,19 or 17 yr old, it is just plain wrong!!!!

I have said my pieces and would move on!!!

1. The information is for your correction.
I have never been a questionable character and wouldn't be one.
As you must have read that I am very proud of what God is doing in my life from my childhood to date, I have always been a blessing to Nigeria.
I shot into international limelight at 13 as a First Prize winning essayist and was already a professional writer at 18 for the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) and was earning what most adult civil servants couldn't even earn then.

And at 20 was already representing Nigeria at world book fairs in Japan.
 
2. Well, thank God I am healthier, fitter and stronger amd , more potent than most younger men.

If 99% of Nigerians have my kind of character, even America and Japan would be lagging behind Nigeria.

Note all the institutions I mentioned and find out their status.

Back to your ignorance.

Medical doctors say it is better, healthier and safer to marry a younger woman between 18 and 35 years old.

So desiree, go and marry before it too late.
Before the younger and sexier babes snatch your man.
Women need to marry early.

Please, note that I am not even 45. So, by the time I am 50, I would be happily married and a father of two and wouldn't have the time to waste making overtures to girls of 17, 18 or 19.

Lest you forget, I don't proposition girls or even women.
I only respond to their needs.

I have not even dated since July 7, 2006.
Why?
I am presently busy advancing the development of Nigeria and millions of Nigerians will be happier with the progress and success.
But, I am never lonely.

As Ngugi Wa' Thiogo said,[i] I will marry when I want[/i].
If she cannot wait for me, she can go on and marry another man.
I will always find a better, prettier and sexier replacement.
Because, the world is full of beautiful women.

Jacob married Leah at 47 and waited for seven more years to marry Rachel and married her at 54 and from their seed came Jesus Christ our Lord and Messiah.
So, God is not worried about me. Because, He knows what is best for me.

Don't rush into marriage.

Beware of romance scams.
Because, many fake marriages have wrecked many families.

Any woman going after a man, because of his riches
Will lose him to his riches.

Romance scams have also ended up into fake marriages.

When you date or mate a guy, because he is loaded, it is a romance scam.

There are a lot of 419 love affairs online.
