Met her on Cololmbiancupid.com, she posted as Mia but as we left site to skype she came out with her name as Mariam Issah Khalid from Ghana. This was a red flag from jump and I questioned her about that which but I was sucked in by her beauty. She didn't ask for money so I figured there's nothing to lose right now.
Must mention I believe Cololmbiancupid.com is one of many international dating sites under one umbrella.
I believe this is a team. I would text with someone and when it came to me asking for video chat, it wouldn't happen instantly because her webcam wasn't working. Later a woman would video call (see images) which matched the dating site profile but with no audio because her mic didn't work. Doing a reverse image search later I found her on many scam sites. There was one or two calls, without video, this person sounded African but believing she was from Ghana it could have been her own accent so I let that go.
Chats escalated quickly to "i love You" and "we will be together after i graduate from nursing school", stuff like that.
She said she lived alone with her mom, dad passed a few years past, and she was going to nursing school. She played the long game never asking for money. A couple weeks went by and I asked her if she needed a little money and she said it was ok. I insisted and she said to use the app Remitly. She said she never used the app but heard it was a way to send money. She new her way around the app and information that i would need to send it. For someone who never used the app she new what info i needed, red flag again in my head. She asked me to send funds to a friend of hers because she didn't have a phone. Friends name is Abdul Hamid Issah.
I started reverse image searching and found her images all over the web scam sights, and also did a IP search on her skype ID which pinged out of Serbia. Not that the money was sent to Ghana and skype address pinged out of serbia.
Be careful out there see images. The pic that is a little grainy is from our video chats.
