I reported it, but have you heard from this poster?

Yes- 2 messages. I deleted them and blocked him.

Me too

I got one too. Same words.

Blocked him.

How disappointing - no contact to me. Possibly my vibe isn't cool enough.
Well, maybe my Nigerian prince will be messaging me soon.

same here chocolatelovinggran
No Nigerian princes of late either I'm gutted

Careful! I made a joke similar to yours yesterday and a gransnetter took real umbrage and gave me a telling off!! 😢

Yes. I replied F+&£off.
The funny part is: it’s my Grandsons name 😂

Deleted and blocked him.

Yes, I had PM from him. Same message as to OP.
Reported to GNHQ and blocked him.

Me too!

Me too! Reported and blocked. Pretty pointless pm why would anyone respond to such an inane comment

Meeting him for afternoon tea later.

I’m sending him money for his sick granny!

As if.

Oh no, I don't want to be burdened by tales of a sick Granny. He must be quite young though, that's good.

Yes, I had the same message. Deleted and blocked him.

Someone once DID try to con money from me to pay for an operation on his sick mom. He came into one of my online shops presenting himself as a celebrity hairdresser.

Found out from a Google search he was also special forces, a pilot. a rig worker and a personal trainer. Busy guy!

Well I m feeling left out now I didn’t get one and I had the money waiting ah well his loss

Phew! You had a narrow escape. Paul was not the Adonis he claimed he was.

Appalling manners, stuffing sandwiches in , ate all the fairy cakes. And I had to pay my half.

I’ve just had a private message from him, I’m afraid I was rather rude, it hasn’t bothered me but annoys me how they creep in 🤬

Can we be sure "Paul" was even a man? There's female scammers around too doubtless.......

...and shucks that no-one has talked to him on the phone yet - in order to pick up what part of the world he comes from? They must have videos of people talking from various parts of the world on YouTube - as they've certainly got ones for various British voices there (so one can tell what part of Britain they're from and/or what background).

Worse than mine 😂

I didn’t reply, just blocked him. Afraid to say I was tempted to string him along for a bit, with my best gullible old dear act, but resisted.

Yep....one quick YouTube google later and I started with Nigerian accents - got instant hits and now know how to pronounce "Macdonalds" (as in Macdonalds junk food) in the correct voice....

Has anyone got the nerve to reply to them with a "Please make a phonecall to me - I think we should get to know each other better". Off to check out what other accents I can find there....
