The fact these women just hand over their money to “charming” stranger just blows me away. The moment any grown man would asked you for money is an immediate red flag! 🤦🏽‍♀️

She is in her 50s and he is 21. She looks like his grandmother. We must learn to love ourselves more and be happy being alone.

Desperation is the word that was left out of this documentary. Never allow yourself to feel desperate for anything, otherwise you will become vulnerable!

As a 63yr old woman in the U.S., I learned the hard way that men now want either a ‘nurse or a purse’… 😡

I would be so suspicious if a man 20/30 years younger was interested in me.

Falling for a whirlwind romance is one thing, bringing them to live with you and your child is another. Protect our children please

[robinmccoy]

I feel like these lovely ladies are lucky to still be around to share their stories! They lost tons of money but they're still alive.

As a young girl I was approached by a man on the street in Kingston Jamaica telling me how beautiful I was and he could get me into modeling. I was 18 and was already turned down because of my height. I was exited for a moment when he told me that he could help me become a model. But he told me that he was going to make a call and would come back and get me I should wait there for him. Immediately after he walked away silly me was standing there waiting for him to come back when suddenly I heard a voice saying walk away. I listened to the voice and
I’m glad I did because I probably wouldn’t be here today.

Being scammed about love I can understand however sending millions of money to a lover, I can never understand 😞

I was 45 yrs old, met this handsome guy who was 28...I knew from the immidiate beginning that he would scam me in some way, wasn't sure how though. I didn't have to wonder much longer than two days though😁he "forgot" his wallet at home when we went for coffee, AND when we went to have a drink at a bar. I told him "okay, I'll pay for both of us but after this I never want to see you again because I can't stand this behaviour" and I walked away and blocked him on my phone. Six months later I saw him at a bar and he came and sat down with me asking why I had thought that he was lying those times?! I said "I'm not 16, I am past 40, I have experienced more than YOU have and I know when someone has truly forgot his wallet or if he just pretends to have, to make the woman pay". He got up, threw 20 bucks on the table and said he REALLY had forgot his wallet(both times😁) and now he proves it by paying me back! I said thank you and took the money and turned my back on him. Never saw him again😆

I’m sure Diane wouldn’t have believed a 21 year old was interested in her in Scotland. Yet believed a man abroad at that age with limited resources was genuine. She went in with her eyes open out of desperation and the wedding could’ve been avoided. These men can easily spot their willing targets so it remains on women to be cautious. Such scams are widely reported and has gone on for decades. Yet many will continue to ignore all the warning signs. The lady in Ghana had the last laugh by not aiding his visa application.

These men dont "go to charm school" the women just don't have much self esteem, self worth, boundaries and or standards. They probably also have an anxious attachment style which makes them fall fast and cling on.

What the juju man said was correct. It’s up to us as women to look after ourselves and make decision’s that are in our best interest. Jumping in to a marriage or relationship with someone we barely know is ridiculous no matter where it happens.

[HeatherMac]

Gotta hand it to Latoya. In the end she didn’t allow herself to be scammed. She stayed in Ghana and made her dream happen on her own terms. I hope she is still out there happy today!

[shingi]

One thing they all have in common… they’re all described as being “very charming”. Don’t let charm deceive you ladies, there’s a lot more to true love than sweet words.

I wonder how the 54 year woman would feel if her son of 25 years came home with a 54 year old
