It's rare to get a scammer to send money, though it can be done if you dangle a big enough cash bait. You probably won't be able to do it in a romance scam, but if you google "419 cash bait" you might find some enlightening discussions.
I had a blast with one 'female' scammer on behalf of a dom friend. I'm $500 richer... (I checked with an attorney about keeping the funds since I had no idea where the funds came from)
Reader’s Digest account. She would Western Union $1000 to my dom friend in Florida. He would send $500 to Vicki's travel agent so he could purchase a ticket to fly Vicki to Florida. Dom friend could keep $500 if she did not stay with him and decided that the relationship would not work out .
Long version
She (Vicki) had to be evacuated because of hurricane Katrina and moved to England. (Funny how she relocated before Katrina hit. Guess she didn’t do very much research) It was so sad that her and her "sick mother" lost everything, including their VERY successful flower shop. I just can't understand why she didn't want to give me the name of the flower shop (so I could look it up on the internet)
Then $1000 transfer via Western Union was made to the Dom friend so that poor destitute Vicki's travel agent could purchase a ticket on her behalf. Vicki convinced my dom friend that she would arrive just a couple days away once half the money was transferred to her 'travel agent' .. oops, he lived in Nigeria. I had looked up flights and told her I would make the purchase of the tickets from my end. I wonder why she could not let me purchase the ticket. Her travel agent HAD to purchase it for some vague reason
I told her that I could not and would not 'help' her until I saw some identification. Since she flew to England that meant she had a passport. I asked her send me a copy of "her" passport. (oops, she had to suddenly go offline again before she could send a copy ) Vicki finally got back online a couple days later and was willing to email a copy of her passport. Did you know that Vicki was born in New Jersey in a city called Lagos Nigeria? That is 'her' birth place in the U.S.
I took a look at the 'passport' and any amateur could see it was a poorly done fake. I tried to have a conversation about several different alterations on the fake passport like ... why did the photo appeared to be edited to have the background deleted, ... Lagos Nigeria was put in the space where "US birth place" was suppose to go. I started to tell her that and damn if she had to go offline again.
Things like that went on for a while until all of the sudden she flew from England to Denmark on her way to my dom friend in Florida. <rolls eyes> I had such a hard time understanding why her ISP was the same as when she was in "England". She always had to suddenly go offline when that topic came up also. So the poor little darling was stuck in Denmark with no money for a hotel room and could not purchase a ticket to Florida until money had been transferred to her travel agent ... who was on vacation in Nigeria.
Then a miracle happened!! She gave my dom friend a flight number and he could pick her up at the airport about midnight. What was sad, is he believed her to the extent that he dragged his son out of bed, drove over an hour away to the airport and waited for her flight to arrive. He would not believe, with all the proof I gave him, that she was a fake and scammer.
Poor Vicki has been very fortunate in that she found a new master (the poor bastard) and wanted nothing to do with me and my dom friend. I had a blast with “her”.
“She” and her ISP are registered on the Scammer website along with ‘her photo’ ...
