Aragorn11: I'd tell him what I think, if I had that type of relationship with him.
The things we regret in life tend not to be the things we do, but the things we don't do.

I doubt anyone can top that.
It's amazing how some men, even women , can be that cruel..., the problem nowadays is that these incidences are becoming more frequent & spoil it for the few genuine men Left on this planet.
I hope this hasn't left you too scarred & don't let this man dictate any future relationships that may come your way.

One said he's not best friends with the guy. It seems it's something he's observing probably cause the guy talks about this woman all the time.
If the guy is happy in his senior years then I wouldn't get involved in his business.
He might tell One to mind his own business. Then a work relationship might suffer.
She's a scammer. If One really wants to help this guy it would be better to show him stories where men have been taken financially by women like this. The guy will never believe what someone says. He needs to read it and even then he might think that she would never do that to him.
If I were in One's shoes I would suggest to the guy to stop sending her stuff, stop calling and see how long it goes before she contacts him again.
I'm not into relationship games but in this case I think it is warranted.
If One wants to avoid having the regret that he didn't tell the guy what's going on he could tell him once. When the ball drops he won't have any regrets.

He ain't a mate, but if he was, depending on his character , I'd probably do the same..

Explain to him,that, this the internet,and he might be scammed.
One2note: Yes, let's hope the trolls stay clear.. I've never resorted to banned anyone from my threads but I may change my policy , depending on the the posters .
Getting back to the topic..
Yeh, I'm sure your experience is not an isolated one but I've never been in a situation such a as yourself, but I have a customer at work, a mature man in his sixties, who is smitten with a young oriental lady, 28, if my memory serves me right.. The thing is, all his money goes on phone calls, presents & hard cash to aid her , allegedly poor family in china .. He still has this idea that she will one day come to England & all will be rosy..
My question is , do I tell him he is being taken for a ride, or let him find out for himself.

Often, the signs are there but we choose to ignore them.. I'm sure thinking back, there may have been some clues you ignored or didn't want to believe..

Oh yes, definitely...looking back in hindsight, there were red flags everywhere, lol! But, as so often happens when you're "in love", you are wearing shades and cannot see them
Anywho...older, wiser, and not so naive now

You've hit the nail in the head .. It really is none of my business & he has closer friends & family member who could advise him..
I've made my own observations but I may be completely wrong.

I wouldn't feel too bad about it.. You ain't the first, & you won't be the last to be scammed..
Just make sure it doesn't happen again
