What transpired for him to ask you for money?
Re: My Internet Friend by Babylove1(f): 4:28pm On Jan 21, 2010
@ kokonets

he said he needs the money for an emergency and that he would return lt by the end of the month
Re: My Internet Friend by Tcharged: 4:33pm On Jan 21, 2010
Most people are scammed by those who are close to them. Scammers are as patient as vultures and will wait to strike at the right time.
Except you have a way of being certain he needs money for a genuine reason and he has a means of paying back.
Do you have the time and means of cross checking this guy? If your answer is NO, then you should not loan him any money. People are so deceptive and so many online scammers abound.

Hey, its your money so go ahead and loan it out to whoever.

How long have you folks been communicating? - this will determine if you can go ahead  undecided

You can never tell, but probability of refund is not guaranteed.

Better you give away the money if you really want to.

Do you think the reasons why he wants to loan funds from you are genuine?  lipsrsealed

Your answer is in bold.
And It seems you're not comfortable with it. Don't do ANYTHING MONEY wise you are not comfortable with.
Insticts are there for a reason. Better make sure u have enough to be ok if he doesnt pay back,


Honestly I would say no.
Re: My Internet Friend by Sparkles3: 5:12pm On Jan 21, 2010
He might abscond with your money! Dont do it dear!
Online scammers always come up a reason for an 'emergency'

On a second thought it depends on how long you have been communicating, Mininum of 3 years You might get your money back; less than 3 yrs, Just forget it!
Re: My Internet Friend by just1(m): 5:17pm On Jan 21, 2010
ask him for a collateral, no collateral no money

Somehow true, we suppose allow the MAGA to fall MUGU, atleast make somebody chop.
Re: My Internet Friend by Nobody: 10:59am On Jan 22, 2010
@poster
if you decide to pay (still trying to understand why you even thinking of doing it) then accept that this money is a gift, not a loan. . . . . . . .  and if he ever pays you back then that would just be a bonus.

let me give you an idea of what you should do. ask to meet him IN PERSON (in a public place or bring a male friend) and tell him to explain what is the emergency. if he has a fancy phone etc then take it from him as collateral(if not then go to his house and pick whatever you think is worth anything). if he refuses then you will understand that there is no emergency, unless the phone or whatever you found in his place is more important than "the emergency"!

i heard that the new way to scam people these days is thru these dating/single website as there are so many desperate women on there that would do about anything the scammers asked just to get a chance at meeting "the right guy"

women in their 30s are the more vulnerable as they are thinking with their body clock in mind rather than their bloody brains.
to each their own
Re: My Internet Friend by chidipupay(m): 11:52am On Jan 22, 2010
should maga pay or no pay is simply left for this maga to decide
Re: My Internet Friend by raybanny: 12:53pm On Jan 22, 2010

Re: My Internet Friend by afrobaby(f): 1:27pm On Jan 22, 2010
I will advise u dont lend him unless if and only if u can assume u are giving him on charity and not lending him so dat when he doesnt pay u, u wont be troubled
But really why would a guy that uve not met demand for such things, I smell a foul play here
Re: My Internet Friend by naijaswag1: 1:37pm On Jan 22, 2010
If you have a lot of money,help the needy and don't expect the money back because you have just being yahooed!
