    Does anyone know of a Sharon Jackson in Accra and please tell me the story
    I'm trying to find out information on a Sharon Jackson. Scammer no doubt. Went to school for nursing. Seems like she never has a picture to send or can't take one. Her phone always has problems. Lives with her friend. And isn't very happy in her living situation. Met her on Connecting singles.

    Scammers use all sorts of names, this one, and/or a combination pops up common. Sounds like a bad scammer,

    Most have photos, most of the larger places hire local girls to pose for photos. Then use young men, old ladies to do the emails and/or even the phones.

    Common that they never have a phone, ask them to download SKYPE, so talk is free, on computer, then the mic does not work or video not work, they have an answer.

    Sounds like this may be a small operation.

    You asking, means you wish, you have some level of hope it is real, Block her emails, and move on, it is not real. Read some of my 100's of posts on the Ghana scam, I was in Ghana some years ago and personally saw some of these operations.

    Absolutely, positively a scammer. Ghana is an African Nation, the fact they have very American sounding names is yet another giveaway.

    The real question is why are you wasting your time when you suspect this person is a scammer and "she" is from the scamming capital of the known world, and all you get are excuses, so probably her whole story is a lie.

    Dude you have enough red flags to leave this person alone, and find a better candidate for love and romance without running the great risk of being fleeced out of your time and money. If you really want a big head and heartache that bad just run head first into a brick wall!

    Oh, my bad! That's exactly what your are doing with this "chick" you met on a singles site!

    You recognize this is a scam, so why are you wasting your time?

    This is going to sound harsher than it is, but people that have to resort to trying to meet up with people in different countries for romance in hopes of something that's unlikely to ever happen because they can't get someone near them that they can actually meet for real in person to talk or go out with them for whatever reasons, really need to consider celibacy as a viable option. At least you won't be broke and alone rather than just alone.

    "Scammer no doubt". So what are you trying to prove, you already believe she is a scammer as are 99.99% of Ghana online romances.

    You said it yourself, it's a scam. You can't find someone that is using a fake name, so just let it go and move on.
