Maybe this link and link will help you to understand more.

If any of you believe you have been hit by them, please let one of the moderators know and we will take care of them.
 
Whatever you notice how it doesn't sound like human, but bots in way, then you know it's BS.

You forgot to mention: "Age and distance are just a number" and "I am seeking true love" among the lines used.
 
For me, if there is either an email or a website link or both then I feel it's a very high chance of a spammer. Also click their names and search their posts to see if they've ever made any.

Good Day Naisho,

How are u doing? Its so nice to hear from you... i am kinda new to this online dating stuff as i told you and u happen to be my first contact online.. well dear i just got out of a Bad Relationship that really hurt me.. thats why i got introduced to this online dating stuff.Am a girl that was born and brought up from a good christian home...Am single ...28 years old...Am from Usa presently in west africa Nigeria to see my sick mom.Am a dancer but i stop to further my bachelor degree

I am seeking an equal partner to journey with. I am looking for a serious, committed relationship built on honesty and respect. Family and children are essential to me; fancy things and material objects are not. I am an intelligent, trustworthy, loving, courageous, and affectionate woman. I like the simple things in life - kids, family, nature, and a hard day's work. My sense of humor is goofy. I enjoy laughing at myself since it always helps me to get through a tough day. I love the outdoors (picnics, walks, sports & animals) and reading (news, history, adventure & science). I love coloring pictures, I am very much a kid at heart and hope I always will be.

Am looking for a man who is willing to challenge me and grow together. He must be comfortable with a woman who is unafraid of sharing his feelings. he should enjoy the simpler aspects of life and if all goes well, be ready to settle down and raise a family together within a couple of years i am also Looking for a Christian Man .someone who has the fear of God in Him. I am very sincere and Honest lady.

I am an energetic and sociable person. I appreciate decency and sincerity in a relationship between a man and a woman. The inner beauty is more important for me than the beauty of appearance. I wish to open a new world in the world of your soul. And if I understand you are the Only whom I am seeking, i share with you all your sorrows and joys, I will be your best friend and life partner I like to travel very much. It is very interesting to get more knowledge about the new countries, new people and traditions. It's great to have such a possibility. I'm a quiet, kind,

A great meaning for me is a human's soul. Circle of my interests is various. I like the literature, music, and cinema. personality traits are; calm, honest, kind, Johnny, flexible, elegant, sociable, sensitive, gentle, cheerful, optimistic, romantic .My perception of an ideal , I would like to see near me clever, intelligent, and reliable man. Which would require my emotional heat, capable to like and respect the woman. I have to let you know as well, that am an honest person as i have said, and i have to be honest with that, i don't have any boyfriend at present now and am not in any serious relationship. am a great giver because I so much believes in the Multiplied returns and that's why I doesn't lack anything. I never speak negatively about people, I take less and listen more to people and does not jump into other people's affairs.

Am very understanding,open minded with a heart of forgiving, loving and caring with sense of humor, hard working with cheerful character,honest,sincere,kind, warm and intelligent with good look . have fully decided to be a role Model to my children and a good, loving and caring wife to my husband.But I doesn't want to mess myself with the wrong Man.

I would really love to meet you .I want to be happy with the right man and something tells me in my mind that you are a nice person and to be sincere with you i am starting to have a strong feelings for you and i hope i am doing the right thing.Well i just got home now and i wanted to write you this short note.
Hope to hear from you soon.

That second quote, that looks scary.

I wonder is this how they always target Ddeaf/Hhoh? (What about hearie, do they get the same?)

Weird :hmm:

They target everyone, especially singles. I think they target deaf because deaf seem more lonely or desperate to find mate. I am always surprised that anyone falls for the trap they set. NEVER SEND MONEY TO SOMEONE YOU NEVER MET!

That's right, don't fall for the stupid scammer and never send money to anyone you don't know.

target Ddeaf because Ddeaf seem more lonely or deseparately looking for a love?
Well, It's not easy you know for the dating online.

Agreed. My comment about D/deaf having more difficulty is just my opinion. I have no real proof to back it up. Just seems that way. I was single for many years, and I am HOH/LDA. Hard to find the right one. Some people, I think, spend less time looking for a mate than shopping for shoes. :eek3:

This "skaat00" used that pic on another site. The name and email are same. She used that pic for 3 or 4 different profiles, all banned. I had the pleasure of flushing her/him down. BTW, never assume you are dealing with a female, even if the picture is female.
 
Really, that's her?.

Sound like she's a hearie person.

I tried to remember where I saw her pic somewhere.

Thanks for showing us the pic.
