This blog is for informational/educational purposes only and is in no way meant to offend anyone.
1. NEVER give out your personal email address, phone number, place of employment, mailing address or your last name to someone you just met online.
2. Stay on the site to communicate. Scammers want to get you on to IM quickly or email through your personal email address. There are 2 reasons for this: (1) the scammer knows it is just a matter of time before they will be kicked off the site and they would not be able to continue communicating with you and (2) to gain personal information about you.
3. NEVER send money to anyone—NEVER NEVER NEVER!
4. NEVER accept or cash any check or money order for anyone.
5. Trust your gut instinct---if something does not sound right, it probably isn’t.
6. Ask questions and listen to the answers you are getting---do they make sense?
If at anytime you suspect you might be communicating with a scammer, please report it. You may either email me at MMCounselor or contact support. We will be more than happy to check them out for you.
Do not post any username here without prior verification the member has been removed.
The majority of the photos posted here are not of the actual scammer, but are photos of innocent people that were stolen.
Stay Safe!
