Good morning to you all, I know i would get a correct advise and steps to take here over my mistakes. I met this man who lives and work in the US on one of the social media networks and we became chat buddies, strictly platonic and nothing more, he told me how he lost his wife to cancer some years back and have been unable to remarry, he told me about his only child (a girl) who lives with his mum here in Nigeria, I get to know much about him from our chats and I realized he has not seen his daughter for some years now and there was no communication with his daughter for almost two years. The reason was that the mum told him never to call her again since he has refused to remarry and will only speak with him when he has found a wife, he's the only child of the mum and they are from a very wealthy home, the mum is eager and so desperate for more kids from him (you understand how our mothers behave on issues like this). During one of our conversation, he suddenly asked if I would consider him for marriage and I replied with a solid No, he then begged me to play along as he intends Introducing me to the mum as his fiancee just so he could speak with his daughter, he sent me crying videos of how he misses his daughter and how his mom kept to her words, I sympathized with him and saw the eagerness and somehow I agreed to speak with the mom and play along so he will achieve his aim of speaking with his daughter. The next day his mum called and I could hear the excitement in her voice, she was so happy and didn't even care of other things, she spent more than an hour with me on phone and told me alot, by this time I was already scared but can't withdraw. That was the beginning of this whole problems, his mum now call me on daily basis, through her I have spoken with aunties and uncles of this man I haven't even met, recently she sent someone in my location to check on me and she brought really expensive gifts for me,she wanted to visit me but I somehow was able to convince her that she should wait till her son comes back which is next month. I have complained to this man of how he got me into a trap I didn't bargain for and he keeps begging and sending crying videos and telling me to do this for him so as to establish once more a good relationship with his mom and daughter and that when he comes back, he will sort out everything. Now this whole thing has really weigh me down, I don't sleep well anymore, I've lost weight and my heart skips each time my phone rings, my mum keeps asking me if anything is wrong but I can't get to tell her, I'm depressed already. Please help me with advise on what to do and how best to remove myself from all this. Please don't bash me and I'm not a good writer too, pardon me.

OP I don't get,are you deliberately acting naive or what??! It is obvious these people are scammers. They are so unintelligent they keep using the same format. Even if you haven't read or heard similar stories before, atleast people are pointing it out to you that they are fraudsters still you're defending them. How long have you been under their manipulation Please be careful, do not fall prey. You can even check google for similar stories on Facebook.

Just run. They did it to somebody I know. The script is to get your trust . Very soon he will tell u his mother is dying in the hospital that you should help send money to save his mother that he can't send money from his location. This is high class fraud. Run away.
Likeee Same format! I can't believe she's defending the family. I just hope she doesn't fall victim.

You have to inform your mum all that has been happening

Second if you know that, the man is not your spec declare it now and stop collecting gifts from him and his family

Never you enter into a relationship when you know that your joy is not there

You will be the one to suffer it

You guys may meet and the love will spark on

This story sound exactly like what happened to my friend recently. The same story line, the only difference is that the guys mum never send anymore to check on my friend neither did she bought gift for my friend.

At the end of everything my friend realise that the guy was a scam, he scammed alot of money out of my friend. My friend kept sending money to the guys mom, not knowing it was all scam.

Did you meet the man on Facebook? cos that is where my friend met the man. We also found out that a lot of ladies fell victim to that terrible scammer

The way you all are saying it's scam is scary, I told him this morning that he has failed if all this is a scam and he laughed it off saying what has come over me and that what can I give him to begin with, it sounds so funny to him, he's very rich and I already know alot about him.Hmm I'm patiently waiting sha but I know it's not scam

Are you for real? So he will agree that he's a scammer. Stop defending this man and his family. This story sounds too fake to be real. How can a mother cut off communication between a father and his daughter because he refused to remarry. Where on earth does that happen? THREAD WITH CAUTION!!!.

The mum got so angry after several attempts to get him married was fruitless and she stops picking his calls, she just wanted him to do her wish through all means. I wished it was fake, peace of mind is golden

A mother using his son's daughter and her grandkid to coerce his son to marry when he isn't ready is manipulative

A man crying over and over again to emotionally blackmail someone to act Fruadulent and partake in his lies is manipulative

This are serious red flags

Moving forward, set a well premeditated rule and agreement, you are a contract staff, Acting a role, what compensation do you want from him, and what acting services can you offer... You are acting like a girlfriend then charge him what escort charge

It's obvious she knows better and of course she got her answers but just want others to confirm them. Since she knows he's a rich man,then she got nothing to worry about nor does she need validation before she decides on her next plan. What I don't get is the constant waving away of warnings from different posters about this confirmed scam. I believe she will be vindicated.

Though your posts irritates me most of the time, but I wish not for you to be scammed.
I see that they have gotten you where they want (you 98% believe it's not scam)!
You are really naive and I believe that you are truly a woman after going through this thread.
This is simply what you are going to do (I know it's a scam), just play along with them until they bill (I am betting my left ball that they would). Then you will know what's up.
I warned someone who was in a similar situation from same Facebook and he refused to listen...the rest is history.


grin grin so it's because of this fake scammer that you have been bashing nairaland men anyhow because you think that rich men are begging you for relationship (now I can trace it) you will always say "if you see men that I control ehh" chai!!

You have to conduct discreet investigation to get solid proof that the so called Mom, the single man & only girl child are not fiction.... For the sake of your sanity.

Better confide in your Mother now in case of....

Do you know his friends and family members?
(I don't mean those who claim to be & interact with you to convince you...)

Don't commit the Gross error to go visit them alone, better meet them with (in company of 2 of your friends ) in a public place where all eyes can see you.

is from same place with him and knows alot about him and the family. I already know alot about them

I observed you have a response for everyone which tells me you are enjoying the attention from both parties. You might think you know him so well yet you know nothing since all you know is what he is telling/showing. Keep fighting with yourself over a truth you know deep within you. If it smells like a phish, it definitely is. Keep leading yourself on and I hope you realize before it is too late.
