OP did a female pick up the money or was it some Nigerian dude?

:whathesaid:

It's really not worth the headache. Nothing is really going to come of it. Despite Niffla's optimistic hope that you would be making life difficult for them by reporting it, chances are you won't. Money's gone. Go ahead and try if you really want to, no one is going to blame you.

But you might as well accept now that nothing will happen and you won't see that money ever again.




Thing is though, in my opinion it's not even about the money at this point. It's just the fact that this person is going to continue to do this, and has probably been doing this for quite some time. Now yeah, this is a learning situation for OP (as far as doing this type of shit, like loaning money to complete strangers whom of which was met on the internet). OP made a mistake that could've/should've been avoided. No question.

But OP apparently has some details on who this person is, and this person is stealing from people. Probably scamming some poor bastard right now as we speak. Just letting it go seems wrong to me.

What did they look like? Was it a chick or a dude?

What a shitty thing to do...but definitely sounds like a scam.

I'd consult with enlil maybe about it but I doubt there's anything you can do. As someone pointed at above I don't think that you can get them in trouble for lying...you did give them the money...

I have no idea.

I don't really think it's all about the money either, but I really doubt the cops are going to do anything about it. I find it even harder to believe that higher up law organizations would even get involved. Would probably need dozens of people filing reports before they'd so much as ask their supervisor if they should check it out or some shit.

May be wrong or whatever, but if it were me (and I somehow found myself in this situation which I never would) I'd just chalk it up to lesson learned and move on.

I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today.
Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear.
I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear.

I read this thread. I'm very annoyed with you OP. Why wont you tell us, are you a women seeking a man, or a man seeking a man.

It's a confusing bid here. If your a dude why would you hand them the cash, unless your sexual preferences lean towards that. Did they show aggression? Where you afraid because they know where you live?

Set up another date at a friends house threw a fake account, or a vacant home. Be hiding and have your friend out side. Jump out with your video camera and scare the shit out of them calling them out on their shit!

Post video on youtube and shroomery and get mad props!

You might want to have a gun on you. lol

Reason for edit: yea have a gun!

Why don't you sue them? They made a verbal contract that they would pay you back, and they didn't. Not to mention fraud..

You could probably sue the shit outta them. It sucks man that they stole from you, but don't feel terrible about you falling for it.

You seem like a good guy, hell, I bet if you made a gofundme account people would donate for you to have that 100 dollars back. :shrug: But if you wanna teach that person a lesson, I'd say call the cops. or call a lawyer.

She's went and bought some coke with that and went to the nearest club. You live and you learn :shrug: maybe it was a :cop: and they're just investigating your money to make sure it's not part of an Asian drug ring

If you're that gullible you should not be on dating sites.
