juanpa_2000: I contact women from other countries, first because the are maybe 8-10 profiles of women int he country I live right now and like to meet people from different cultures.

not all scammers are from out of the US. As a matter of fact there are hundreds of profiles of women on this site that state they live in the US that are scammers.

I think everybody has to chill a little about this, just put the sword away for a minute, instead of just coming out cold you are a scammer. The scammers are not only getting away with their thing but ruin it for the rest of us.

sigh Nowadays it's extremely difficult to tell who are real scammers who are not. I took a look at romancescam.com (a website mentioned on this forum by some member). I could help to shudder that many European men American men (or who they claim to be) are also scammers. The pictures show them to be like absolutely normal ppl. No one knows the poor dudes only have their pictures misused for fraud.

A way to uncover their location is checking on the url which may reveal their source country. Some of the scammers betrayed themselves when they're sending emails from Nigeria or somewhere in Africa, even they left a western country mobile, say UK. I've checked by Google, some sites show us how to find out the source url receiving thru Hotmail, Outlook Express, Gmail or Yahoo Mail.

I use hotmail. Nevertheless, so far, I can't find out how it works.dunno

Patsey: I seem to get contacts from far away and they don't read my profile first and they want an e-mail first


None of the poll's options apply for me.
If I am interested in someone I don't care where she is in the world because I know of some modern machines called "airplanes" that can get me there in very little time. laugh

Exuse me but did you ask your question right here?

It´s the woman who take contact from another country, not men.

It´s allways happends to me anyway that the women who lives let say on the other side or just far away.

They say that they have something importent to say and when you answer they say that their far has been killed and her mother is dead. She is on the ruun herself but she has a trustfond with LOTS of money, millions but she can´t get it and she BEGGGGG you to take care of that so you if you are stupid enough like I was aand send some cash so you could get the right papers but it´s just a scam, Nigeria letter.

But I am not gonna leave with that because I also believe that there is some men who do the same so you can´t ask like that. It goes both ways.....

Thank you.......

wow wow Many yrs back Kai Tak used to be the airport. There were many restaurants & good food, except for the noise, not surprising you lived there.

But as for Stonecutters Is & Tai Mo Shan, it's a real amazement! Do you work on the country park? innocent

I've been to UK but never been to Glasgow. Hope I'll be there some day. Read from travelling info. is just a very nice city to live in.cheers

Problem is quite difficult to tell whom is whom nowadays. We may not be silly enough to send money or take money, but wasting time & being fooled is also a hell of experience.

Kai Tak has changed a lot since the airport has been removed. It's still forsaken pending development with plenty of restaurants closed down.
However, Lan Kwai Fong is much different. The soho district has stretched across Central to somewhere up the mid-levels. Do join the fun for a drink when u're in town.beer
It only occurs to me Stonecutters is a barrack. Was it for naughty kid like you ? grin

Thanks to the invention of the internet , life changed really quickly over the past 10 years or so applause

Physical encounter, however, is pretty dam difficult and requires a lot of planning ahead dunno

there was a movie produced by MTV documenting social life around here , called True Life: Resist the power. The video caused a huge controversy in Saudi and was removed by MTV website and YouTube since then. But i guess you can still view it from outside the country , try googling for it
