Help wanted. Is this request for financial help genuine or a scam. ??

[Moy]

Number of people get worried during slow economy period as one thing starts striking in their mind about the amount of money they have as if they will be able to pay their bills or not. Unluckily, they also feel un-secure about money scams as scammers usually make victim to those who are struggling financially.
Many scams/frauds come from overseas, through unsolicited e-mails, surprise phone calls or even a visit. If you did not ask for a visit a call or an unexpected e-mail think for a minute why you have been contacted and what details they know about you? You should be careful not to hand over personal details such as your bank account and credit card numbers until you have established the credentials of who you are dealing with.

Thats just common sense Moy. She was not asking for his bank account details or any credentials or card numbers, she was scamming a story of needing money to get this job. Plain and simple scam ploy.

People still fall for these scams so I thing Moys advice is is still good even if it's not applicable in this situation.

I had someone try and scam me after several months of chatting so i know what it feels like at least she didn't get any money out of me!( she obviously hadn't heard how tight us English farmers are )
