    Didn't learn did you? The whole thing is a scam, including the woman and the picture.

    It is so interesting. I encountered the same experience in late July and early August. I have ended up with three pictures of a guy, that have been used by a Scotland-based Nigerian scam artist. I also wonder where to poor guy is and how I can let him know that his pictures have been used illegally.

    The people in the pictures probably know, they're most likely a part of the scam.

    Contacting them won't do any good, it will just start the whole thing over again.

    Learn from your mistake and move on.

    Actually, I am worried about my own photos in wrong hands.

    If you don't have pictures of you on the internet then there's very little chance of that happening.
