Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 5-7-2020: Don’t Just Book It … 

5th July, 2020.


Right … 

It’s Sunday … 

And I have to confess, it’s looking … 

Well … overcast … 

Ish … !

If that’s not going to affect everyone’s mood, I don’t know what will.

Oh … Romance scams … 

Have you heard of them … ?

It’s when a malicious person pretends to be someone else: who’s fallen in love you … and then asks you for a ridiculous amount of money — cash, or gift vouchers — so they can fly over to marry you.

Or pay hospital bills for they sick mother.   Or buy an army uniform.   What have you.

I used to get a few on Instagram: they’re usually easy to spot, as they’re private messages that come out of the blue.

Instagram’s gone quiet on me: although I’ve one follower I have my doubts about.

At any rate?

Romance scams on Instagram have gone quiet … then I had at least two crop up on Facebook Messenger.

Including a person claiming to be called ‘Diane Boyd’.



Except, according to her profile link … ?

She was called Emmanuel Udo.

Yes: it’s official.

At least one romance scammer doesn’t know how to disguise their real name …
