    Man, 85, loses $300K in online dating fraud

    _______________________

    PEMBROKE PINES, Fla. (AP) — Police say a 49-year-old woman swindled a man nearly twice her age out of more than $300,000 after he sought companionship on a dating app.

    Eighty-five-year-old John Berman was a widower when he joined the dating app and met Nancy Guy. She vanished in 2015, but on Thursday authorities caught up with her.

    Pembroke Pines police Capt. Christopher Sengelmann tells local news outlets that Guy, who introduced herself to Berman as Anna Miller, may have victimized other men and urged them to come forward.

    According to police, Guy told Berman she needed money for a dress-making business. She promised to pay him back, but always made excuses, including that she had cancer. Eventually Berman’s son found out and intervened.

    It’s not clear whether she has hired a lawyer.

    Guys be careful out here. These women and the simps who run with them are always looking for a way to get over on people.

    Date a girl half your age and you will loose your savings. That elderly Gentleman is a pathetic moron, if he really thought she’d ever be anything but expensive arm-/eye-candy.

    The real danger of pussy begging.

    If you rescue a damsel in distress, all you will get is a distressed damsel.

    He’s probably ready to jump in the coffin after that

    It makes me sad when older folks are swindled out of their savings. An old grift was that someone would call them, say they’re from their bank and need to verify bank account info, then they lose everything in their account.

    The internet is a perfect place for someone to take everything from a trusting senior.

    There’s no fool like an old fool. At 85 I have to wonder if Alzheimer’s played a role in this. Did he forget that he was 85? If a 20 something took an interest in me (at 62) alarm bells would be ringing in my head.

    Not to be crass, but two sayings come to mind:

    “A fool and his money are soon parted”
    and
    “There’s no fool like an old fool”

    All my life I've had doubts about who I am, where I belonged. Now I'm like the arrow that springs from the bow. No hesitation, no doubts. The path is clear. And what are you? Alive. Everything else is negotiable. Women have rights; men have responsibilities; MGTOW have freedom. Marriage is for chumps. If someone stands in the way of true justice, you simply walk up behind them and stab them in the heart-R'as al Ghul.
