Beware of marrying any foriegner, especially the ones who speak English.
I married a Brit out of nothing more than love. he was a slick talker with a dreamy accent and beautiful face.
He conned me and some of my family members out of money and basically my life!
I am not a stupid woman, just he was a damn good liar!
I withdrew my sponsorship, he lost his SS card and work authorization but , as most con artist do, when I threw him out and filed for a divorce, he found a wokan that was NOT at all attractive and about 20 years older than himself, In other words a desperate woman. She took him in and he lied to her also and led hert to believe all sorts of horrible things about me.
I tried to warn that stupid woman, she did not listen and he got deported about a year later, leaving her with all his bills and all alone. I knew this would happen. She even went as far as to sponsor him and finacially take care of him while he hired an immigration attorney to file his appeal.

Sorry to hear about this,but keep in mind that stuff like this happens every hour in the world. People like your brit-charmer ex-husband are what we call "predators". And being the way they are is how they survive in the world, just like how sharks can smell in the water from far away, etc.....
I do hope that you let yourself heal over time and find the true love that you deserve.
Take care.

Happens in Most western countries.
In the UK we are also warned about Americans playing this same trick but taking your money and then getting you deported, almost no come back.
You just need to be careful and do all your home work when meeting anyone who has the ability to hide behind a telephone. There was an Australian man who recently returned home after being kidnapped in Nigeria and tortured to get a ransom for him.
Not everyone is evil and there are more locals looking to take you to the cleaner than people you meet on the Internet, it's just most of the Internet people do it as a living.

Women with a caring, warm heart that are vulnerable are these cons best targets. These men give them a gift of gab which is basically what these women need to hear so that they will feel secure and loved; then they take advantage of them because they know they've got them on the hook. When they are done, they go to the next flower.
The only defense to this is to be aware and be suspicious as a way of protecting yourself....with all men. Remember that men from a foreign land have another country to go to besides. Don't worry about making him prove himself, if the guy really loves you he won't NEED or WANT anything from you but your love....don't become a target.

How long did you know him before you married him? Where did you meet him, hope not the internet! Did you ever meet his family and friends? The fact is anyone can con you foreign or not, you have to look for the signs. You probably were so in love that you didn't want to see them! So now you know how to watch out for yourself. Be careful of any man!

Yep, a lot of women believe that men from other countries are really in love with them when they just want citizenship. It especially happens to women with low self esteem. It's sad. Be careful, people.
