The man called himself as a Nigerian pastor and even told the lady to provide $900.
A Facebook scammer tried his level best to get some easy money from a woman. The scammer is identified as Stephen Masumbo of Lagos, Nigeria who messaged a British woman Imgur user Bellushka on social media. He started the conversation by saying “Hello sweet lady”. He was hoping to make her fall in love with him and even told her that he wants some money so that he can fly to Britain and be with her. The man called himself as the Nigerian pastor and even told the lady to provide $900. What the man does not realise is that the woman beats him with her sarcasm and he continues his creepy behaviour. He further even writes, “I like you sweet lady,” he writes. Cn you be my princesse? I name you princess.”

But the lady was in no mood and instead of getting scammed she hilariously trolled the man. The Britain woman named herself as Barbara O’Cumbungle had enough of it, and within no time, she played the game and trolled the scammer. The woman’s response when the scammer told her to send him money through the Western Union. Within no time, the scammer asked the lady for an update on the transaction and the woman sends him a picture. This Britain woman has thought us the perfect way to deal with such scammers. The way you trolled the Nigerian guy was just amazing and the scammer became scammed. KARMA! (wink wink).
Well, their wild chats are all over the social media, and people are praising Bellushka’s ingenuity. Business Insider explains, “Malaysian police lack the resources and expertise to tackle the problem and have yet to launch a single prosecution of a case involving a U.S. victim.” In such high-tech era, scamming has become an easy way to grab lum sum amount of money. With the advent of technology scamming has become one of the biggest and primary concerns which are targeting people. In this process, a scammer tricks innocent people by going out of his way to impress them. Now a day scammers are using the perfect way to impress innocent individuals and approaching the victim online.

The scammer further even seduced the woman with his kind-naughty words and impressed the victim by saying that he wants to get married. But innocent people get trapped when they spend loads and loads of money and in return do not get the kind of love they are looking for. Tim Scherer, the consul general at the U.S. embassy in Kuala Lumpur, was quoted by Reuters saying, “These are not rich widows who are being preyed on, these are middle-class Americans who don’t have this kind of money to spare. It can transform their lives in a terrible way.” But unfortunately some people do fall prey such scams, but recently a British woman some how managed to turn the entire game and scammed the scammer in his own dirty game.
Well, played lady you rock really. You are the real hero, hats off to you! We hope now the man has learned a tough lesson of his life and will not attempt such thing in the future.
