Dear colleagues baiters,
I am at my first ladette-baiting, after having baited dozens of NOKs, widows, refugees, orphans, bank managers etc. but always of from african 'school'.
After the usual initial exchange of emails (she/he just used scripts, except once when she had to read some strange question in my email she didn't like), and some tons of nice pictures (thing that made me suspect she's a genuine woman, not a man), we are now totally in love with each other: she declared her love for me, and I of course didn't say no.
But she has also asked for money... so, now, what?
I did not really know what can i do. Just inventing stories and absurd excuses as if she was a nigerian scammer? But, in love scams, does it work?
Any advice will be highly appreciated.

Ladettes are just scammers with a different format... she / he may even be doing straight 419 at the same time.
The old excuses about WU offices burning down, security forms, etc all still hold true. The main difference is that you can bring visa applications into play. Which is nice. More excuses to mess him / her around. Smile

Welcome to romance baiting. Mugatu's advice is great. The same old concepts usually works with romance scammers as for other types of scammers. Sometimes a little adjustment is needed. The Romance Baiting FAQ Sticky is full of useful information and ideas specific to romance baits.

And don't forget to throw in a few "local customs" applicable ONLY to wherever your from.

Australians of course still wear the corks around our hats like they do in the Monty Python episode "Woolomolloo" and call everyone "Bruce" (even the "sheilas")!

And not to mention all the car accidents from the kangaroos hopping down the main streets (to get away from the crocodiles of course)... Oh and end EVERY sentence with "Crikey". Rolling Eyes

Swap Australia with whatever country you happen to be from and you can see the fun you can have Twisted Evil

PS: Did I mention the Bridge between sydney and Auckland New Zealand?

the Bridge between sydney and Auckland New Zealand?

lol I just asked a lad if he was afraid of flying over so much water (he was a frequent traveler) and he said it was his first time, I asked, but you've flown to africa before right? and he completely didn't get it...

later asked him where he was going next - something like barbane....a quick google showed it was in england...so I asked him which country and he said "UK" ...explained the UK was a collection of countries, which country was he going to and he guessed "great britian" that created a lot of doubt in my character Twisted Evil

I know we're not supposed to educate our lads, and from all the misunderstanding I know it was a minor correction -- and he won't remember it based on other conversations I've had with him, have to tell him three times & then resort to " I told you that already"....

Never mind all that, just concentrate on the important things, like managing the "Drop Bears" Wink

Mugatu & internationalchrysis,
Thank you so much for the funny suggestions. The WU office burning down is great, and I never used it before. This will be the first time.
Thanks to others too.

because of the hurricanes and tornados in my area, I always use the old "it was destroyed last year by hurricane ***". and I name a recent one. then I tell them because of this, I have to travel 20 miles to the next town to visit the money grab office. I never use western onion because of the tracking of money that was report here on the list. seems to work every time. I get there late and the office is closed, at lunch etc. makes delaying the time between them asking if I have gone to the money place yet. I always try for saturday morning because I get off work late on weekdays and by then, the office is closed.

Buy some time... bonuses are paid in April.... Christ you can really treat her then!

The only way to pass that kind of money on is to meet and GET IT ON. Be sure that "she" describes what she is anticipating from this meeting.

I've been told (since I've never actually been to Unzed) it's a three hour FLIGHT! I once read about the "bridge" in an article about the common questions asked about Oztraylia by people from the peeps from the You Ess.

I cried with laughter over that one
