there's a really easy way to deal with scammer boys.....
DON'T SEND MONEY.... EVER.
Seriously... basic common sense, continual admonishments here and on every other hookup site online beat the drumbeat about sending money. For chrissakes, anyone who would actually send some random boy cash for some cliche hardup story at this point is a serious idiot. Not just an idiot, but a certifiable, double digit IQ, Homer Simpson archetypal, how does he manage to put pants on in the morning without impaling himself on the kitchen faucet RETARD. "A Fool and his Money is soon Parted" is from friggin AESOP (Remember Aesop's Fables from the Rocky & Bullwinkle show???) over 2000 years ago!
This scam is not new, it's been around in one form or another at least as long as there's been money. Think about that for a second.... Thousands of years.... Same Story.... You're not special, and they're not criminal masterminds.
JUST... STOP.... BEING... BAIT....
If you people stop falling for the scam, they will go away, like any other predator in search of prey.
STOP sending money to ANYONE.
STOP whining about how stupid you are.
STOP pretending any cop, prosecutor, or judge is going save you from your own ignoramnity.
