    1 who is in need of cash and does not think, or 1 who is a little less fortunate and really wants to enjoy the finer things in life and get blind sided IMO.

    I have no sympathy for idiots like this. Stupidity should be punished and bred out of our gene pool.

    There comes a point where you've already lost so much money, time, friends and probably your job that you know it's a scam, and you have nothing else to lose but a bit more money, so maybe, just maybe something will turn out right and it could be this next step, which these scammers will keep you thinking is the last step to your fortune. Same thing happend to the woman who lost $400K, she even admitted that after a point she knew it was a scam, but kept on doing it.

    This guys friends don't want to talk to him probably because he tried to borrow money from them and they told him it's a scam, but he didn't listen. I have no sympathy for him. Hard lesson learned, and this can't be said enough times, but if it's too good to be true, it's most likely not.

    Do we still have to feel sorry for these people? I mean, not only would you have to be very, very stupid to fall for this, you'd have to be a stubborn ignorant douchebag as well, because I guarantee you that everyone he mentioned this to told him it was a scam.
    It's like me walking up to everyone I see telling them that if they give me $250,000, I'll transform them into a superman. If someone hands over the money, am I really the only one to blame here?


    But, people will do crazy shit when they live in a town that reeks of tomato soup for 4 months a year.

    wow, that is sad. Such a hick town, full of backwards people.

    My favourite part of the story was "Leamington Police" wow, they are finally off doing important work, rather than policing the ketchup recipe from the Heinz plant.
