Hello,

I'm located in France and was contacted by a person who prensented herself as Sheila Morrison. She sent me the first mail in French but with a lot of mistakes in it. I had though that she was using an automatic translator so I asked her to tell it in english. Even in english, there was a lot of mistake and I started to be suspicious about this person. I decided to discuss with "her" and see when she would ask me for money. After 6 mails exchanged, she sent me an e-receipt to show me that she has booked a flight to come to meet me face to face. I put the fisrt mails she sent me and the last one with the e-receipt :


First mail in french :

Bonjour mon cher,
Comment s'est passée ta journée? bel espoir, je me sens vraiment heureux et excités de vous lire à nouveau. Eh bien, je peux constater que vous êtes un homme très sincère à la différence d'autres gars qui m'a envoyé sur le site de rencontres. Je ne suis pas sur autre chose que de trouver l'amour de ma vie, et je suis prêt à ce jour, environ un basé sur l'amour et la confiance. J'ai été blessée par les hommes dans le passé et je ne veux pas cette situation se reproduise. Je ne veux pas me précipiter bien mais je dois avouer que je m'intéresse à vous.Votre profil est très intéressant pour moi et j'aime ce que je vois. Il ya cette aura magnétique à votre sujet qui semble irrésistible pour moi. Je suis sincèrement être nerveux avec ce sentiment, mais je n'ai pas peur de se déplacer le long de la passion et de savourer et de fantasmes. Mais j'ai besoin de savoir ce que vous voulez vraiment dans la vie.
J'ai vu papa traités mauvaise maman quand ils étaient tous deux en vie, et je ne veux pas vivre une vie avec de tels antécédents, elle a rencontré mon père, en Australie, mais papa traitait si mal, j'étais si jeune alors, mais je sais ce que qui se passait entre eux. J'ai besoin d'un homme que je puisse vivre et vieillir avec. Le taux élevé de divorce dans le monde est m'énerves. Je veux un amant que je m'aime avec tout ce que je suis, une personne qui vous comprendre et de m'accepter, exactement comme je le suis. Et je serai loyal envers lui jusqu'à ce que mes derniers jours.
Avez-vous déjà eu une brise le cœur avec une femme dans le passé? Quelle est votre expérience? avez-vous du tout-Dame sur Internet avant?
Je voudrais savoir si vous pouvez parler anglais.
Nous espérons avoir de vos nouvelles bientôt.
Votre nouvel ami

Sheila

I got same messages [email protected]

Hello My Dear,
How are was your day? hope fine, i feel really happy and excited to read from you again. well, i can observe that you are a very sincere man unlike other guys that mailed me on the dating site. I am not out for anything but to find the love of my life, and i am willing to date some one based on love and trust. I have been hurt by men in the past and i don't want such to happen again. I don't wanna rush though but i must confess i am interested in you. Your profile is quite attractive to me and i like what i see. There is this magnetic aura about you that seem irresistible to me. I sincerely get nervous with this feelings but i am not scared to move along and savor the passion and fantasies. But i need to know what you really want in life.
I have watched dad treated mum bad when they were both alive, and i don't want to live a life with such history ,she met my dad in Australia, but dad treated her so bad, i was so young then but i know what was going on between them. I need a man i can live and grow old with. The high rate of divorce in the world is pissing me off. I want a lover that i will love me with all that i am, someone that will understand and accept me, just the way i am. And i will be loyal to him till my dieing days.
Have you ever had any heart breaks with woman in the past? what is your experience like? have you dated any lady on internet before?
I will like to know if you can speak English language.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Your new friend
Sheila


And same pattern goes on Traced IP to Nigeria Thanks for your warning :)

only to wake to your beautiful smile. I want to share in your joys and sorrows. I
want to be your everything. You are everything to me.


You are everything I do. You see and bring out the best in me. You are the
one I want to share everything with - my thoughts, hopes and dreams. Thinking of you
makes my heart feel full. You are such a source of inspiration for me. I will
forever be indebted to you for all you have brought to my life. So, to repay you, I promise you
my heart and all the love in it for the rest of my life.... I Need a favor
