Ladies Beware, This Could Be The Latest Scam In Town by wree91(op): 11:58am On Mar 22, 2015
A lady friend of mine just narrated to me what happened to her

She was in the waiting room of an office where she went to conduct some business when this guy walked up to her saying that she looked familiar and he believed that they were in camp together.

Being a long time my friend couldn't really remember but they exchanged numbers and started talking. He told her he lives in Akure, is widowed and has a daughter.

Within a week he introduced her to a lady over the phone claiming to be his mother, saying she lives and works in Asaba. They got talking, with the woman calling her several times a week while the guy was subtly hinting towards a relationship and marriage even though they had only met once and everything has been over the phone.

He now called my friend that he is travelling to the UK for a few days and will come to visit her in Abuja when he returns.

Some days after his departure his mother called my friend in a state of panic that his daughter had a fall in the bathroom and cracked her skull that the hospital needed 250k to run some tests and was wondering if my friend could help with the money, to which she (my friend) responded that she didn't have that kind of money.

The next day the doctor called her saying that the girls condition was serious and required surgery, and then asked if my friend could help raise some money.

My friend expressed her concern and promised to support in any way she could, but reiterated that she didn't have money.

As it stands both the guy and his supposed mother are no longer answering their phones. I believe they have moved on to the next mark.
