NAPERVILLE, Ill., Feb. 25 (UPI) -- Police in Illinois said a man "was in disbelief" when officers told him the online girlfriend to whom he had given $200,000 was not a real person.

 

Naperville police said the 48-year-old man called investigators Wednesday to say he believed the woman, with whom he had been involved in a 2 1/2-year online relationship, had been kidnapped in London, the Chicago Sun-Times reported Friday.

 

The man told police he had wired $200,000 to the woman during the relationship to different bank accounts in Nigeria, Malaysia, England and the United States.

 

Investigators said the ID card the woman showed the man was a sample driver's license from Florida.

 

The man "was in disbelief" when officers told him the woman was not real, police said.

Who ever milked this fool deserves a medal.

Fox News is a Republican propaganda channel. You's have to be very dense to think it was actually a "news" channel.

Yep, the only news channel that offers an alternative to the left wing liberals in charge of all other propaganda outlets

So would I be. In fact I am in disbelief. Obviously the online friend was a person or he wouldn't have lost any money.

 

Is this story a trick entry form for the Turing Test Contest?

Shoulda been his clue -- Florida DR is about the only thing faked more often than a whore's orgasm. (to say nothing of the SAMPLE version)
