This is the first bait in what might be called my Romance/Beggar Trilogy.
One aspect of Scammer psychology that’s as common as their psychopathic lack of conscience is having no sense of irony. Here’s a Scammer who showed that over and over again.
The Scammer
Nowell, “a Military man” and “four,star,general”; or is he Mohammed Wale, a “Marine engnner” with a seven-year-old son?
The Baiter
Camille White, photomodel and devotee of the Norse Pantheon with an uncanny resemblance to Sophie Monk
What follows are chat transcripts. The only emails involved were to send pix to or receive pix from the Lad, and have been omitted.
Comments are in bold.

The New Year arrives, and it seems that the Scammer has broken his space bar. And in short order, the romantic banter soon turns into begging for financial assistance!
