Just wanted to say hello I am new here. I think this will be kind of a safe haven from all the other "crap" sites . I have a feeling this will actually have some "real" people I can meet! Nice to be here.

Hi everyone I am new here and want to say hello. I am 64 but oh so much more! Looking to make friends and hopefully find someone special. Has anyone been scammed? Cause I was and its pretty scary. Lost allot of money, and they are still trying to get to me. I had to block them. It really got me scared.

Hi RGW and welcome to DnM.  I moved your post to Intro's as I guessed that's what you meant to do.


Come join the fun in the forums or just use the Search feature to find someone you'd like to chat with.


Always beware of passing personal information to a stranger until you are very sure of them.


Stay safe and good luck

hiya and welcome to DnM, Realgoodwoman123. Would you mind if I shortened that to Rgw? First of all read up to see the basics on how the site works here.

Secondly, I'm confident in saying many on the site here have been scammed ( not all). Sorry to hear you lost money to your scammer. Chances are good more importantly you've lost trust in humans, and are likely pretty mad at yourself for not seeing ( or obeying) the signs sooner. You can get past it, but you need to want to. realize that trust is earned, not given. And just because you have met someone on the internet does not equal meeting them in person. The truth is you should never believe a person on the internet is real until after you have met them in person, face to face.

while you are reading, here is another good one to take in

I think I'd like to add that chances are real good there is no reason to be scared of your scammer. Chances are good he is in Western Africa or at least another part of the world and has no capability to get to you in person. Blocking him and screening very well any "new" friends for the next few months is a wise choice. If you have other social sites you visit regularly set your privacy preferences so that only your friends can see you and your profile. Then be extremely careful of any "new" friend requests.

it is real common for the scammers to act like 3 year olds when they find out you are onto them. They threaten physical harm, police, and all kinds of things that just are not possible in the real world. Only in a scammer's head can those things work.

with all that said, I hope you did not give him any extremely personal info such as your SSN, or passport #. If so let me know and I'll post what to do about them.
