As for yna, welcome to the forum and Merry Christmas. Just like everyone here, I think you have been the intended victim of a scam. Thank God you didnt lose any money. Its a learning experience for you. There truly are some despicable people in the world. If I were you, I would immediately cut off any contact with this individual.

Ranger I'm so sorry that things have panned out like this for you. As graham said, I feel your pain. Its a very unpleasant place to be in, but you will get through it. Do try to give us an update when you can, and remember there are people here rooting for you.
