So, this woman, from the West Midlands, claims she is facing bankruptcy after losing £113,000 to a scammer she met on a dating site. The man, who claimed he lived nearby, told her he had gone abroad for an engineering contract in Ukraine and then convinced her he needed money.
I feel for her, even the smartest people can still be scammed :( I hate that people do this to anyone, let alone someone lonely and vulnerable.
I'm betting it's fake - she's claiming a big number to make the Betabux offer a couple of thousand - if they might get something in return......
I've just found out what this means! It sounded like buttybox (which would only make sense if you're from the north). Betabux refers to beta males who give financial favours to women in an attempt to earn their romantic or sexual interest.
