Hey Minerva I've got this guy on the hook still. I've just been playing along with him, and he told me he was flying to the Republic of Georgia. Well guess what. He just texted me that he got to the hotel and his credit card doesn't work and he needs money from me that he will pay back when his card gets activated in three days.

Would it be helpful to get wiring instructions or whatever and send him a small amount so that we could find out where he is???

Please let me know as soon as you can. I know the advice is to stop communication but I would so love to take down whoever is behind the pictures/profile.

He will ask for transfer via Western Union or Money Gram . It is up to you what will be next. You could BLOCK and IGNORE as we advice or just tell him you don't live close by to WU or MG and you can only wire to the bank.
Confronting the scammer is WRONG!!! DON'T enlighten criminals with your wisdom. REPORT & BLOCK.

Thank you Igulinka. I asked him what he needed me to do but he hasn't given me specific instructions yet.

I think you have a Nigerian "student" there, who entered Georgia on a student visa. IMHO you should rather break up contact now, because this was not a scambait, they think you are an about-to-pay victim and I believe the "best" thing you would get out off those gangs now is only just another fake name ;)
Please try your best to block ALL your scammer´s still incoming messages and calls!

OK thank you FrumpyBB for your advice. I've done more reading and it doesn't seem like stringing him along will result in an arrest anyway. At least I've helped to warn others I hope!! I do feel badly for whoever that guy is in the pictures in real life though!!!

you can ask him where to transfer the money and the address as scam proof than posted all his instruction here so other people will be safe. ;) It better if you can get his bank account to transfer the $$$, so we can make his bank account close. After you get all that info you can cut off all communication with him. and please dont sent him $$$ after it. can't say it just a game to get all that info. ;)

OK thanks I will try to get a bank account number from him. The strange thing is I've asked him three times what does he need me to do and how much he needs and he just keeps asking me to "borrow him" the money.

you can ask him how much money you need it that may be work. ;) and as Frumpy said you better created a new email ID only for baiting and dont used your real name and information for bait him.

So he finally replied to Western Union it, I said I don't have WU or MG anywhere near me, and he asked for my physical address so he could look up where is the closest to me. He said a bank transfer won't work, that he has money in his bank account, but the issue is that his card won't work there for three days. Should I go any further do you think or just block him at this point??

Don´t go any further :) giving out any personal information is not worth it. Just become quiet on him, and no explanations why, even when he messages you ten times asking you what´s wrong: Dont´reply.

Do not send him money. I learned the hard way. I did not know of this website. After I had sent him money I was made aware of this spot. All the pictures he has on here are pictures he sent to me in emails and text messages. I am still paying for my stupidity.
