He's asking me to send big ticket items to Nigeria and not even using the original name he gave me? I am not ignorant but just want some other opinions? Thanks!

BE VERY AWARE! Nigeria is well known for scam artists and recently in the UK, a woman appeared in a television programme where she had been scammed by a guy in Nigeria for hundreds of thousands of pounds simply becuase she was too trusitng and didn't believe that there were people out there who would do this. I get e mails from people in Africa asking me if they can use my bank account to deposit money and if I agree, they will give me lots of money in retuen - this is another scam and they empty your bank account.
If you think you are a wise person, cease all contact with this person immediately.
If you don't, and you do what he asks, don't look for sympathy as you have been warned. You obvioulsy think he's dodgy otherwise you wouldn't have come on here to ask this question - if in doubt - don't do it!

PLease by all means.................listen to me do not make this mistake. They are part of an elite nigerian scam. They want you to fall for some big lie and them send them money. They do it all the time and have gotten away with peoples hard earned dollars and not to mention they are usually in the thousands of dollar mark. DO NOT at all means fall for this crap, there are more than a million safe dating sites that can be helpful and mabe you m ight even find the righ one. People actually start showning true colors eventually. The right one is not going to ask for nothing but true americal companion ship. I just pray this got to you in time and might prevent you suffering the wrath of the nigerian scams artists....

Break off all contact with him immediately.
Do not give him any more personal information than you already have.
If he just met you on line, and starts to ask you for things, he is up to no good, and you can only get hurt.

AAHAHA!! Had that happen myself. Had a girl named 'Julian' who claimed she was an American stranded in Nigeria and needed $600 to 'pay de hospital bill' or else she couldn't go home. Me and my friend had a lot of fun messing with him/her/it. Just play along and don't send de money. Den you get hurt messages like "why you lie?" "You lie to me!" "You are liar i never can come home u bad man". lol
Its just a pathetic scam.

You cant possibly be that stupid, he's a user, all he wants is somebody that he can rob. Dont send him anything, get off line with him, find yourself some friends that like you for who & what you are, not for what they can get out of you.

Maybe you're not ignorant, but you ARE naive. Save yourself some grief and STOP communicating with this person. You have every right to be suspicious. He is SCAMMING you.

He is scammer.
just block him, and of course you will feel a little bad because you said you like him.
So: Contact me, and I assure you that you will like me, and I would like you if you are a nice person.
After all, I wont be asking you for anything;)
