Where are all the romance scammers? They are much more fun to lead on ! A few years ago I had one, who pretended to be an American gem trader stranded in Oz. Sent me pictures of raw stones in little compartments in a cardboard box. These pictures had been stolen from a web site and showed over 30 different stone samples. So I decided to give the scammer a task I knew, he could not succeed at. I became very interested in learning about those stones and asked the fake expert to tell me the mames of those samples. I savoured the squirming and all the dumb excuses why "she" was unable to oblige. Giving a scammer impossible tasks is a great way to waste their time. It took more than 6 months for this fool to notice, I was only playing his game but with my rules. I had promised "her" right at the beginning, that I would be as honest, as "she" was to me. I did not lie !
