| This scam has been going around for a couple of years as I know of (maybe more). I'd send to to everyone I know and let them know it's a major scam. |

| I get these ones too. People are playing with our heartstrings. It is sad that people stoop so low.

| people are like major scammers. I saw this thing on like 60 mins or some show like that about how there are TONS of scammers in Africa they tracked this one specific guy who was like rolling in money because he would be scamming soo many people. I think it was somewhere in Nigeria, they said the exact city in Nigeria too. It was crazy though to watch.
