    How did you meet?
    Where is she from?
    Has she asked for money yet?

    Let's see if any of this sounds familiar to you...

    You were maybe on a dating site and met someone from a foreign land. After talking for a bit (a week, maybe a month) she told you she loves you. You talk on chat and maybe the phone once in a while. She tells you how poor she is though, maybe not poor but she isn't doing great. She tells you how great it would be to come and see you so you can be together and maybe get married. Oh, but now she has no money for passports, visa's, airfare, fees to leave the country... all that.

    How does that sound?

    Met through what I think is a web site that was an attorney I paid$30 to find out about a possible scammer. And she was. It was a porn star from Texas. But she said I know a true woman that went through the same as you did. So I started talking. She said lets move sloe. Its been wonderful. But I thought I will call golden tulip in accra to see if she's an employee there. Well the person there at the desk didn't know of that name but she sounded like she didn't know much of anything. I have pictures of her lots. Email everything. She didn't ask for $ but was wanting to move here. So I offered to get her passport and visa and getting close to airfare time I said I'll get the ticket not send the $ she said great I don't want to deal with that. We've shared so much love but I'm not 100% can you help

    All I can suggest is that you don't actually send any money. Ghana is well known for scammers... but not everyone there is a scammer.

    Pictures mean very little. They either take pictures off websites or they pay models to do the pictures for them.

    Just be careful.
