    Declaration fee for Ghana
    I have a woman in Ghana her name is Joyce Wisdom, if that is her real name, and has asked me for funds for passport, visa, medical clearance and now for declaration fee for traveling to the u.s. It seems she is stuck in Accra at the airport for her to travel here because she needs $6,000 to get declaration approved for her to fly here. Is there any truth to this and what is the fee. I must have given her $1,500 for passport, $1,000 for medical clearance, $3,500 for her flight ticket and now she is asking for this declaration fee.

    Hello help:

    You already KNOW it's not her real name.. That's why you're asking here instead of sending her money... Good thing, too, because you're being scammed. Hopefully you didn't send her any money already... It sounds like you did. It sounds like you're in their second phase of cheating you...

    I guess I needed somebody to tell me. It seemed so real seeing her on the webcam and skyping me with messages so I never felt this was a scam . When I looked up these scams she did not fit the profile exactly but when it came to asking me for funds that's when I was a little concerned.

    Hello again, bruce:

    Glad you didn't send her anything yet... It must be national industry... It's been going on for a long time, and we get a few guys every month who get caught up in it.. They're VERY good at it. Even on THIS site, they join and scope out potential victims, and send them private messages about wanting to get to know us and exchange pictures... It's EASY to fall for.
