Scammers versus the Real Thing!!!


Even though I'm pretty new here to BC and haven't been on many sites at all,I see there are alot of scammers,people pretending to be someone there not!!!
One thing God has truely blessed me with is discernment and we all really have that through the Holy Spirit. It's called having a check in your spirit.
Heres how to discern a scammer from the real thing,at least from my experience.
Many scammers use very broken english,the wording doesn't all the way make sense.Too many spelling errors, and yet it says they live in the usa somewhere.Many scammers tell you they're working out of the country temporarily. Watch for inconsistancies,for instance they tell you they have a 6 months old, next time they tell you shes 2. Alot of times they don't have a photo posted,or their photo is gorgeous but looks like a professional picture.I'm not saying everyone is a scammer but use caution!!! Many tell you they want to get married right away or try to rush you!!!Good things come to those who wait!Look for inconsistancies in birthdates or years born.If you start private communications through email ask for a picture of the person with their as many will send separate pictures. There are millions of pictures available on the internet and anyone can cut and paste.I see a pattern with scammers saying they're widowed.Not all widows are scammers but be cautious.Don't freely add people to your hotlists until you get to know them.Don't rush into giving personal info like address or phone number. God tells us to be wise as serpents but gentle as doves.Use wisdom as many scammers prey on vulnerability. Pray and ask God to lead and guide you and if you don't feel right about someone it's probably because they're not right.It's always best to start slowly when getting to know someone as we're supposed to see the fruits.Friendships that are made first make for better relationships later.Never be desperate!God says you are fearfully and wonderfully made,so let God show you and listen to his voice and he will show you the difference between the scammers and the REAL THING!!! God Bless you all in your search...
