    I'd want more than 900,000 quid.

    I'd want a lot more than 900,000 to stick a tail on that.

    Woman defends sending £900,000 to lover in Africa she never met


    Sarah sold an apartment building, she says, to get him out of jail
    She’s never met her African lover, yet this woman has spent $1.4million (£900,000) on him.
    And she has no regrets.
    Sarah, who has divorced twice, met Chris Olsen 18 months ago online and the pair have spoken for hours over the phone every day.
    In that time he has repeatedly asked her for money and, despite his accent changing over that time, she is ’95 per cent certain’ that he’s the real deal.
    He’s even tried getting to the U.S. several times, she says, but each time gets arrested on false charges, Sarah told Dr Phil
    He told her that he was from Milan and works in South Africa on business. But he’s also said he’s working in Nigeria and Benin.

    She said: ‘An attractive person came on there and said “wow you look like you wouldn’t hurt a fly”. I said “wow this guy’s really handsome, I can’t believe he’s talking to me!”.’
    Sarah has paid for hotel bills, lawyers, stolen credit cards and $550,000 (£360,000) on bail.
    Her justification? ‘I believe Chris does consider me his wife.’
    She added: ‘I have questioned several times whether or not this is a scam. I am 95 per cent certain that Chris is telling me the truth. That this is legit.’
    Sarah turned to Dr Phil to help unite them.

    No wonder the Nigerian scammers never stop.

    She's obviously not an Eagles fan?

    The more $$$ they have, the more attractive/feminine they become?

    I'd have cyber sex with her for that money!

    In fact, if any of you Marmite Miners fancy a bit, I'll send you my banking details.

    I'd do it for £900,000 would have to renegotiate if she expected oral first.

    Oral - why not?

    You won't be looking her in the eye - easy?

    I'd invite her to Cotonou, but the long flight might give her DVT. So for a few hundred thousand pounds, I'll send her a few pics of the lovely beaches here.

    There's a lot of Nigerians banged up in Thailand on "false charges" as well. Shocking they way everybody picks on them.....

    If she wanted to give me 900,000 she could meet me and have a rumble, just put a bag over its head...

    Bet she finds a lot of new friends now, all wanting to jump her.

    TBH she doesn't look like she has ever seen $1.4...let alone be able to spend that amount.

    It is amazing how sadness can ruin the body and force someone into desperate measures in order to find or buy being loved. I wonder how many farangs in Thailand are there on the same desperate journey?

    You don't do things because you will be paid for it...you do things because you want to and the pay comes out in-the-wash....

    Going on a diet may be all she needs to do in order to get p(l)aid...

    Let's leave her alone for a minute, and imagine what he or them look like.

    She is silly and stupid, but i am sure a lot of slimmer and prettier women have done the same thing. Loneliness is a horrible thing, whether you are poor or rich.

    And no, i have never given money to a man that didn't do the housework first. And that was only to go to the shop to buy some cigs. He could keep the change. After a week of the daily cig run, he had enough to buy himself a mars bar.

    They must be able to trace that amount of money somewhere. Probably in a Swiss bank account...

    It's the other side of the coin from the sick buffalo letters that I guess nowadays are sick mother emails from Thailand to the two weeks a year farang males. Suspension of belief is a form of stupidity.
