NEVER SEND MONEY TO ANYONE YOU MEET ONLINE.
While most African singles looking for a date online are genuine, it cannot be denied that many online dating scams originate in African nations such as Nigeria, Ghana or Ivory Coast due to the low per capita income, high rates of unemployment, high rates of corruption and ineffective policing in these areas. The money extracted from victims in North America, Europe and Australia translates to huge fortunes for the scammers who are willing to put weeks or months of work into getting a good payout. Both men and women are targets. Many scammers are well educated and all are heartless so read on for common African online dating scams and protect yourself.
The Nigerian/Ghana Emergency Scam
This is the most common scam in online dating. You might be interacting with a man, say, "William Jones" from USA/ UK/ Australia/ Canada or some other Western country. After some time, "William" has to travel to Nigeria or Ghana for some reason e.g. a business trip or to visit his child in a Nigerian boarding school or even a safari. Soon enough there is some sort of "emergency" with either the child suffering from a brain hemorrhage or "William" suffering a life threatening accident. You will then be requested to send a large amount of money for treatment and promises that you will be paid back ASAP. It's a scam, don't send a cent, cease contact and report the scammer. "William" is probably not even based in a Western country and is yet another Nigerian scammer trying to dupe innocent people off their money.
Scammers often use female profiles as well to fool their potential victim. Again, they pretend to be a woman from a Western country while all the while being based in Nigeria. They then solicit you for money for a charity they run in Nigeria or Ghana. In all likelihood there is no charity and you have been robbed off your money by a scammer.
Nigerian 419 Scam
Also known as the advance fee scam this is an oldie but a goody. Supposedly named after a defunct piece of Nigerian Law the 419 scam has been operating in various incarnations for years. The basic idea is that you're contacted by someone who has access to large sums of money and wishes to move them through your bank account. They might say that someone has died leaving millions or they might be a corrupt government official draining federal funds and they want to share this unbelievable fortune with you. All they need is a sum of your money to get things rolling or to cover bank fees. Whatever creative, captivating and greed inducing story you read know this: it's a scam. However much you send, you will never see the money again.
Fake Kidnap Scam
Taking advantage of the "dangerous" perception of Africa, scammers often create elaborate fake kidnap plans. Again, they pretend to be someone from a Western country, visiting Nigeria or Ghana for some reason. They are consequently kidnapped and you will be asked to urgently send them some ransom money to help them get out of the messy situation. Yes, this one definitely pulls on the heart strings because you will obviously want to do something to help but don't fall for it because it is simply a way to play on people's emotions and then scam money from them.
While cases like this are very, very rare, there is another variation of the kidnap scam. It is one of the most alarming of all online dating scam stories is that of Australian man Desmond Gregor who flew to Mali in North Western Africa hoping to meet his online sweetheart. Instead he met twelve men armed with machetes who held him captive, demanding ransom. Gregor was lucky to escape with the help of the Canadian Embassy. This is an extreme case of online dating scamming but should serve as a wake up call to all online daters; do you really know who is on the other end of that email or phone? Of course millions of people have flown across countries and continents to find the loves of their life but it's important to keep personal safety in mind.
Cashing Money Orders
Some scammers claim to be North American, European or Australian citizens working in an African nation such as Ghana, Nigeria or based in Lagos. The story goes that they are paid in money orders but are having trouble cashing them; could you please cash the orders and wire the money to Nigeria? If the victim agrees they will receive money orders that have been bought for a small fee, such as $20, and doctored to read hundreds or thousands of dollars. The victim will cash this order and send the money through an irreversible process such as wiring with Western Union as instructed by the scammer. A few days or weeks later their bank calls, informing the victim the money orders were fraudulent and that they are responsible for the amounts owing. Ouch.
Great Photos, Vague Descriptions = Alarm Bells
You come across a profile of a young, attractive woman on an online dating site or maybe she contacts you. The photos are stunning, perhaps professionally taken or provocative, but the description of what she's looking for in a partner is vague. It could be a scammer, often a man, using photos downloaded from the internet in the hope of sucking in as many victims as possible.

Parlamento seçimlerinde 21% oy alarak Macaristan genelinde üçüncü parti çıkan Jobbik’in başkanı Vona GÂBOR Turan’a vurgusu ve Türklük sevdası ile tanınmaktadır.
“Atilla’nın torunuyuz!”, diyen GÂBOR çoklu miting ve etkinliklerde Türklüğün milli simgesi olan Bozkurt işaretini yapmaktadır. “Biz Türkiye’de TÜRK’lüğe sahip çıkamazken “MACAR” kardeşim gereğni yapmış. tebrik etmek gerekir.
It’s a phrase that everyone (unjustly) uses. "ANGUT." When someone does something silly, doesn’t understand something, or just stares blankly, people immediately say, "Are you an Angut?" Many people don’t even know that an Angut is actually a type of bird.
When an Angut bird loses its mate, it waits by its partner's body, never taking its eyes off it. Even if a predator or a human approaches, the bird keeps its gaze fixed on its dead mate.
This is the greatest act of "Angut-ness" performed by this creature. Moreover, this behavior is true for all Angut birds. It’s not something you see often. Even though they are very timid animals, an Angut bird will not run away if you extend your hand while it stands by its dead mate. You know the saying, "Don’t look at me like an Angut."
I wish everyone could look at their loved ones like that, just like the Angut. The Angut is a waterfowl that lives in lakes, marshes, and rivers and has a lifespan of around 8-10 years. It is a hybrid of a duck and a goose with a distinct leg style.
After the death of its mate, this bird doesn’t accept another partner and lives alone for the rest of its life.
Loyalty is an important trait that sets the Angut apart from other animals. Like Anguts, the white storks (kelaynak) also live as monogamous pairs. Additionally, the Angut bird’s mourning state lasts until the end of its life.
10 Types of Men Women Should Stay Away From
Are you feeling lonely lately? When you meet someone suitable, do you feel ready to have a real relationship? In this article, we’ll discuss the 10 types of men women should run away from when they encounter them:
Born Complainers: There’s nothing more exhausting or suffocating than this type of man. The man who complains about everything from the moment he opens his mouth. Run away from him at the first opportunity.
Heartbroken Men: Who doesn’t want their broken heart to be mended? On your first date, he’ll tell you about how broken his heart is. A few dates later, you’ll realize that not only is his heart broken, but he also seems to enjoy it. Don’t waste time on someone with this mindset.
The Man Who Loves Sports More Than You: Many men love sports, whether it’s football, basketball, or another sport. But imagine trying to have a relationship with someone who’s so into sports that he can’t even focus on household chores or take care of a crying baby. You can already foresee how difficult that relationship would be.
The Analyzers: Stay away from men who think they can explain everything scientifically. You’re not looking for a scientific experiment—you’re looking for a relationship.
Too Polite Men: Stay away from excessively polite men who have strict boundaries, dislike the places they visit, and expect everyone to treat them with respect. Instead, find someone who is more daring and assertive.
The "Better Than Everyone" Types: These men think they’re better than everyone else. They don’t laugh or try to make you happy. Once you’re together, you’ll feel like you're in a competition, constantly racing against others.
Paranoid Types: If you meet someone who, without any evidence, accuses you of not liking him, being interested in other things, spending more time with others, or cheating on him, run as fast as you can as soon as you notice these signs.
Immature Men: Stay away from those who can’t handle basic responsibilities, blame others for their failures and unhappiness, and are still stuck in a childlike mindset. These individuals are likely to stay immature and continue avoiding their responsibilities.
Liars: A type of man you should definitely avoid. The ones who can lie easily and think everyone else is foolish. You’ll prefer not to even be friends with these people, let alone have them in your private life.
Cruel and Violent Individuals: These people try to force you into doing things you don’t want to do. You can recognize them by their behavior toward others and their relationships with their surroundings and families. If you’re with someone who has violent tendencies, no matter how real and intense his feelings are for you, the outcome will not change. Since your risk of experiencing violence will always be high, leave the moment you get the first clue.
Başta, Bulgaristan olmak üzere, sınır ötesinden, bizim insanlarımıza musallat olan bu dolandırıcıların hikayeleri, hepsi bir birine benzer. Hikayelerin farklı olması, karşınızdaki dolandırıcının anlatım tarzı ve rol becerisine göre değişir. Ama, kalıp tamamen aynıdır.
Dolandırıcılar, sizi, internetten yada telefonunuza bıraktıkları cevapsız çağrıyı, merak edipte aramanız sonucu bulurlar.... more
İnternet siteleri, üzerinden yapılan dolandırıcılılarda gerçekten sınır tanımayan umut tacirlerinin, son gözde konularından biribulgaristan, romanya, almanya numaralı hatlar üzerinden rus bayan profilleri ile evlenme vaadiyle para dolandırma.
Peki bu süreç nasıl işliyor?
Öncelikle türk arkadaşlık siteleri aracılığı ile sahte fotoğraflarla, gerçek olmayan kadın profilleri açılıyor.
Dolandırıcılık bu noktada ikiye ayrılıyor. Türk hatları olanlar ve yurtdışı hatları ile yapılanlar. Numaranızı verdikten sonra bir bakıyorsunuz, Romanya kodlu bir telefondan size bir çağrı gelmiş. Heyecanlanarak hemen arıyorsunuz ve karşınıza bir bayan çıkıyor. Kimi zaman bozuk şiveli konuşan ses gayet inandırıcı.
Genelde hikaye şöyle başlıyor. Beni zorla evlendirecekler ya da Türkiye ye kaçmam lazım. Param yok bana para yolla, kontor yolla diyorlar. Erkek kullanıcılara evlilik vaadi ile kandırıp, sahte fotoğraflarla akıllarını baştan alıyorlar.
Bu bayanlarla chat sohbet yapmaya kalktığınızda sohbeti fazla uzatmıyorlar ve asla msn adresi vermiyorlar. Yapılan ip numarası araştırmalarında görülen sonuç, bu dolandırıcılıkların genelde istanbul başta olmak üzere Türkiye üzerinden yapıldığıdır.
Çok ama çok dikkat edilmesi gereken bu dolandırcılık türü ile ilgili tedbiri elden bırakmayalım, özellikle tanımadığımız kişilere telefon ve diğer bilgilerimizi vermeyelim. Sahte profil resimleri ne kanmayalım. Yoksa romanya bayan arkadaş ya da bulgar kızları ile chat yapacağız derken, eldeki bulgurdan olmayalım. Bizen uyarması takdir sizlerin.

In Syria, the houses of the Turkmen residents of Turkmen cities are being demolished by the PKK (PYD) with bulldozers. However, the Turkmen population in Syria is not insignificant. Türkiye should support the Turkmens and establish a Turkmeneli state in Syria.
Syrian Turkmen Population: 4.8 million
Iraqi Turkmen Population: 6.3 million.
Let's stand up for our Turkmen brothers whose houses were destroyed by bulldozers and PKK (PYD). Let's share this news with our social circle as much as possible and bring Turkmens to the agenda, at least a little. Thanks..
Suriye'de PYD (PKK) , Türkmenleri ‘Yerlerinizden ayrılmıyorsanız okul ve evlerinizi bombalaması için koalisyona koordinat vereceğiz’ diye tehdit ediyor. Türkmen köyleri dozerlerle yıkılıyor.
Türkmen tehciri duyulmasın diye halk, Türkiye’ye değil iç göçe zorlanıyor. Zorla göçün yerleri belirlenmesin diye de halkın elinden cep telefonları alınıyor. Cerablus-Azez arasında oluşturulacak güvenli bölge, IŞİD ve PYD baskısından bıkmış Türkmenler için hayati bir fırsat olacak.
ZORLA GÖÇ ETTİRMEYE DEVAM EDİYOR Suriye’nin kuzeyindeki Azez-Cerablus arasında insani nedenlerle oluşturulması öngörülen güvenli bölge, Türkmen köyleri üzerindeki IŞİD ve PYD tehdidinin bertaraf edilmesinde de etkili olacak. Türkmenler, Suriye’de oldukça dağınık bir coğrafyada yaşıyor. Nüfuslarının 3’te 2’si, Rakka’nın kuzeyinde yoğunlaşıyor. PYD, geçen ay Arapların yanı sıra Türkmen köylerinin bulunduğu Tel Abyad’ı IŞİD’ten alarak, Kürt nüfusun yaşadığı Cezire ile Kobani (Ayn el Arab) bölgelerini birleştirmişti.
Ardından Tel Abyad’taki Türkmenler ‘bölgeyi terk etmeleri, aksi takdirde koalisyon uçaklarının hava saldırısı düzenleyeceği’ tehdidiyle zorla göç ettirilmeye başlandı. Sadece Tel Abyad’ın 20 kilometre güneyindeki Hammam Turkuman ve Al Iveyyid köylerinden yaklaşık 750 kişi, Türkiye’ye ve Rakka'nın çeşitli bölgelerine göç etti. PYD, şu anda da Türkmenleri zorla göç ettirmeye devam ediyor. HEDEF SIRRIN BÖLGESİ Rakka'ya bağlı Tel Abyad ve Ayn İssa beldelerinin arasındaki Suluk bölgesinin batı kısmı ve Kobani-Rakka merkez arasındaki Sırrın beldesinde bulunan Türkmen köyleri IŞİD’in elinde bulunuyor. Rakka’nın kuzeyinde bunun dışında kalan bölge ise PYD’nin kontrolünde. PYD kaynakları, Telabyad’ı alan PYD'nin Suriye'nin kuzeyindeki ilerleyişinde sıradaki hedefin Rakka iline bağlı Sırrın olabileceğini belirtiyor. PYD'nin buradan sonra da Cerablus'a sıçrayarak, Kobani ile Afrin ‘kantonlarını’ birleştirmeyi amaçladığı tahmin ediliyor.
DÜNYA DUYMASIN DİYE... Suriye Türkmen Meclisi üyesi ve Suriye Türkmenleri Derneği Şanlıurfa Şube Başkanı Ekrem Dede, tehcirin uluslararası arenada duyulmasını engellemek için halkın Türkiye'ye değil, iç göçe zorlandığını ve bazı köylerin boşaltıldıktan sonra halkın bir daha geri dönmesini engellemek için dozerlerle yıkıldığını söyledi. "Suriye'nin kuzeyinde güvenli bölge oluşturulmasını özellikle istiyoruz" diyen Dede, güvenli bölgenin hem burada yaşayan Türkmenlerin gelecekte maruz kalabilecekleri tehcire karşı önlem olacağını, hem de Rakka'daki Türkmenleri PYD tarafından IŞİD’in eline sürülmekten kurtaracağını dile getirdi. Dede, "Şimdiye kadar güvenli bölge oluşturulmuş olsaydı Türkmenler Türkiye'deki kamplar yerine bu bölgedeki yerleşimlerde kalacaktı, hem de IŞİD tehlikesinden uzak olacaktı" dedi.
PYD SADECE BURADAN 8 BİN 200 İNSANI SÜRGÜN ETTİ TEL Abyad Meclis ve Yerel Belgelendirme Komitesi Üyesi Ahmed el-Hac Salih, PYD güçlerinin Suluk’un 5-6 kilometre güneyindeki ‘Hammam Türkmen Şemelli’ ve ‘Hammam Türkmen Cenubi’ beldelerindeki 8 bin 200 Türkmen zorla göç ettirdiğini söyledi. PYD’ye direnen Türkmenlerin tehdit edildiğini belirten Salih, “PYD’nin Resulayn Kanton Başkanı Hüseyin Koçer, ‘Yerlerinizden ayrılmıyorsanız okul ve evlerinizi bombalaması için koalisyona koordinat vereceğiz’ diyor.
Halk, Koçer’in tehdidinden dolayı sığındığı okulları boşaltarak, 12 saat içinde güvenli gördüğü yerlere göç etti. PYD, göç edenlerin ve beldedekilerin cep telefonlarını ellerinden aldı ki tehciri belgeleyemesinler” diye konuştu.
