The Biggest Sting,
We have all had meetings that don't go as planned or as we would like.
I open up the cafe to discussion who's had the worst experience, try and make it funny.
Or largest amout (financial paid out for a no show).
Please don't mention any names.
My story is " If it sounds to good to be true , it mostly likely is".
I read an ad about a fantastic blonde nurse in London.
I emailed her, she responded. A surprise considering the number of willing responces she would have had. She suggested a meet, a hotel and for me to transfer half the hotel cost to her account. I checked out the hotel, the price she quoted was the fully amount.
I know it sounds doggy. She promised the world twice.
To cut a long story short I ended up 300 away from home, the hotel had no details, she did not show. I flew down so there another £100, I had to book a room, lost the money transfered into her account. Plus other expenses. Total estimated £300.
And I guess, I was not the only one. £50 a head times responses equals a lot.
The lesson is "A fool and his money are soon parted"
We all seem to be getting our own fair share of fakes at the mo.
It's fraud. Report it to the Police with as much detail as possible. They wont take the piss and will investigate. The people who set up these stings rely on you being too embarassed to report it, so are often careless setting it up. If the Police require anything from the Site, it will be provided, no problem.

If it's too good to be true then it usually is, but also in this case it seems too daft to be true - are you winding us up? If you're not sounds to me like the money would have been more wisely spent organising a munch - no guarantee of a shag but at least you would have met someone!
Thanks for the replies.
In response to some questions and advice.
Firstly its no joke, it happen.
Secondly, not so desparate. I live in Newcastle. If you come for a night out on the Toon, you will know what I mean. Not orginally from North East.
I was just looking for someting different/adventurous.
Nice to get a lot of hits, hopefully some one will learn from by mistake.
Looking for to North East Munch. See you there.
By the way I checked out you add. I am better looking, younger and now wiser. Only joking.
Thanks for your support. Swingingheaven.
