Mark Smith, 35, 6'0", black hair, green eyes. He contacted me from yahoo personals, said he lived in London but was visiting a friend in Nigeria. We chatted online for about 10 days and then he talked about coming to the US to visit. He said he would check with a travel agent there about making plans. The next thing I knew, he was asking me for financial assistance to pay for his plane ticket and indicating he was planning on getting a 3-month travel visa. I refused to help him with money and suggested he work long enough to save enough money to pay for his ticket here, back to London and to support himself for 3 months. He was extremely apologetic about asking me for money and said he would find a way to take care of it. The very next day he told me he had great news(!) about getting paid for an old modeling assignment, but he needed my assistance in cashing the check since it would be in US funds. Again, I refused to do anything or get involved in anyway and told him it was his responsibility to work it out. This guy try scamming me about every way possible....so ladies beware. He played on my sympathy by telling me he had been married to his true love who had died 13 months ago in a car accident...coincidentally, his friend's parent died in a car accident right after he went to Nigeria to visit and so he was not having a good vacation. He played to my ego, and my sense of helping a friend in need through guilt. As a last ditch effort even asked what I would say if he told me he had fallen in love with me the first time he got to chat with me and that he wanted to get married to me. As IF!! Fortunately, I knew something smelled about him practically right away. I reported him to yahoo personals as a fraud and the next day his profile was no longer available on that site. Not having ever met the guy in person I can't say that he gave me an honest name or picture....but if you get contacted by this guy, I highly recommend you just kick him to the curb so that he can wallow in the gutter where he belongs.
