When someone sends you a e mail how do you know if they really want to get to know you or he is just another scammer?

A guy has e mailed me and said he would like to get to know me. I wrote back asking him a few questions, his reply was why do we not chat and get to know each other.

Is he really interested or just another scammer?

He lives in the states so doubt we would really ever get to really know each other.

You won't know unless you talk to him.

I feel he has not answered any of the questions I asked him, only says lets chat.

If he was for real would he not answer me first?

I can generally tell whether or not they're a scammer if they include a email addy and tell me that they wish to spend the rest of their life with me.



I don't take the chance that they aren't scammers and just delete their mail to me. If they're not someone I see or converse with on the forums on a daily bases I either delete or block them.

In this day and age one can never ever be to careful.

I agree those ones are easy to spot. This guy gave no yahoo e mail or says he loves me and wants to spend the rest of his life with me.

Just keeps saying wants to get to know me lets chat, which I have done 3 x's with only his reply like reading what I wrote and wants to get to know me better. Nothing about himself.

Then I wouldn't talk to him anymore. If he doesn't have anything to hide about himself then he would gladly answer your questions.

I think I'd dis-continue the chats if it were me. Something sounds/seems pretty fishy on that guys part.

That's probably true. But kitty didn't indicate what kind of chat she meant. Rather she spoke to this guy by IM ot email.

It's a good thing to have an email addy that you can dump with no problem---incase of encountering jerks...

Some people prefer chatting, others the forums, and some sending emails.

drinking Don't count him out just because he lives in the States---roll eyes you aren't THAT far away...rolling on the floor laughing

dunno Why don't you just give him a chance? You never know...wink
