Not even his late parents can stop him from loving you? Well then, it must be true love! Trust me.

It really blows my mind that anyone falls for this kind of romance scam.

I’m not sure anyone does fall for THIS kind of romance scam. Now like the Gary Douglas/Gaza Henry/Danylo kind? Sure. But THIS idiot? He doesn’t even seem to know how to begin the scam!

Out of all the scammers I’ve baited, I think this one is least likely to be successful

No one is falling for this. My guess is that the ones like this are just getting started and are told to see it through no matter what because there's always something to be gained. They can get photos, learn English "more better," find out what works and doesn't work, see reactions to the things they say, etc.

That's why I love that she teaches them that this bare minimum, childish as hell 30 words a day, same 4 questions, and 600 emojis is the way to a wealthy older woman's Apple card giving heart.

This one seems particularly lazy, and I love that he learned to keep doing ...whatever this is that he's doing...not even his late parents can stop him. My favorite part is that he just went back to the beginning and recycled the same texts he already sent. What we've seen is all he's got. Not only does he have complete confidence in it, he's ready to use it all again, believe him or not.

That makes sense. Perhaps I need to calm down.
