Romance scam

I play Words with Friends which is a hot spot, I now know for being scammed. I have been recently widowed so I was a prime target for these merciless men. My heart was completely broken when I discovered the photos he sent really belonged to a doctor in Texas and all his affectionate conversations were just a scam.

The promises he made gave me hope each day that I did have something to live for after the death of my husband. The UK bank staff and the police were brilliant and the investigation is ongoing. I know play them at their own game if I suspect I’m being scammed, but what they do is nothing but downright cruel.
