Lady 1 : "My foreign boyfriend, whom I only meet online, asked me for $5,000 to start a company. And I refused"
Lady 2 : "An online love scam averted!"
Lady 1 : "$5,000 is not enough to start a business! So I sent him $20,000 instead."
Some women who went for online dating end up transferring money to their "boyfriends", who are actually conmen. This can be prevented by having a staff of money transfer companies say the recipients' names out loud:
Woman 1 : "I'd like to wire $20,000 to my overseas lover."
Money Transfer Staff : "Oh, I see his name is "Andrew Barry"."
Woman 2, 3, 4 : "Andrew Barry? My Andrew Barry??"
A fight broke out on the women : ☆ ☆ ☆ "He's mine!" "No-mine!" "Shameless man stealers!!" ☆ ☆ ☆
Money Transfer Staff : "At least they all get to keep their money."
