Man Loses $300,000 To a Fake Online Dating Profile

Yea go easy on the guy - if you paid any attention to his speech or his mannerisms there is obviously something off with him that he can't help.

Shame on his daughter for not taking action into her own hands sooner. We've had situations in our family with grandparents who were developing Alzheimer's where we had to step in - sounds more like she's in denial.

Very unfortunate.

Yep.
 



I actually retract my comment from above. This is what happens when you comment on jokes without watching content it referred to.

I watched the vid now and I agree the guy might be in early stages of dementia.

We had it in family so I saw how it develops through time and it starts with mild confusion, speech patterns change and it progresses relatively slowly so it's tough to notice it.

People with it are very vulnerable but it's extremely unlikely you'll notice it since you don't know what to look for so it's hard to put blame on the daughter because most people don't have any idea about this condition.

And to others making fun of him and especially to Mugshot: fuck you.
 
I think he has his full capacity, he's just an old dude who wanted to Huff and Wheeze on top of some young piece of tail a year after his wife died. Shoulda kept it in his pants (his wallet that is, and hopefully ONLY his wallet....)
 
The guy is slow and probably worked hard his whole life and saved that money for some Nigerian to take him to the cleaners. Thank God the poor guy didn't fly to nigeria and get murdered.
 
The sad thing is, if he'd have spent $300K on hookers instead, he'd have had the most amazing year of his life, and probably died smiling of a heart attack whilst on the job.

I've only ever been conned out of a very small amount of cash (by a classic advance fee fraud when trying to score weed. The guy who did it earned his money, he was awesome). When it happens though, it's weird... some critical faculty of your brain just switches off.


I feel sorry for him ... if you lose that amount of money at that age, you ain't ever gonna make it back. Defrauding old people is despicable.
 
he should get several loans - i am jessica i am blond talk blue eyes and i am madly inlove with him. i wont even make him go to London.

Bah. the word is going to hell !

congratulations on being the first WF user to be added to my ignore list. Every post I've seen by you is fucking useless. You wouldn't even make it through public elementary school in Texas.
 
the daughter should have fucked up the internet connection and sentt the old fuck a letter from the so called afrikan telling him the shit was over or whatever ( stupid honkey)
