You seek out this woman because she happens to be pretty. Then you harass her PM box so out of pity she accepts your request and then you start accusing her of being some type of scammer. I would be super creeped out.
NO I did NOT harass "her" if it was a her at all, even in that thread I clearly explained I had no interest in dating anyone, when she finally accepted my friends request, she seemed polite and understanding and said she was simply busy. Even after that PM exchange she chatted me up in the thread.......The after two hours suddenly nothing. To anyone, and there was more than me in that thread, but I was the only one who was clear about liking being single, everyone else was drooling over her. And quite frankly it would not surprise me if this person had other fake accounts to make it look like others were talking to her, because most of her responses were one word like "wow," or "sexy" or emotocons with bulging heart eyes.
I simply had smoked out a scammer who either left on their own, or got booted out by an admin.
If you want to smoke out a scammer, check their page, check the date it was made, check to see if they have a long history on other pages with themes you like, see if they have common friends with you already. But even if someone friends you especially after their first post, you never give out personal info, not even in PM. A lagit person will not care if you friend without exchanging personal info. That person set up a fake account to find a mark.
