“I still love Nigerian men” – American woman who fell victim to romance scam says as she shares her story (video)

An American woman has narrated how she fell victim to two Nigerian internet fraudsters, popularly known as “Yahoo boys”, who posed as love interests. 

The woman said that in spite of the nasty experiences,  she still loves Nigerian men who, according to her, are the “sexiest and most handsome men on this planet”. 

In a video that went viral on Sunday, Nov. 24, the woman spoke about how she met one of the scammers in 2020 on TikTok. 

She displayed the young Nigerian’s picture and the one he used for his unsuspecting victims, adding that she got to know about his real identity and his girlfriend, whom he is planning to get married to, after he mistakenly dialled her contact with his Nigerian line. 

She said: “Back in 2020, I met this man, I was with him for ten months, and I got sick of him because he was always demanding money. He always wanted more and more, so I decided to say enough was enough because one day he made a mistake and called me from a Nigerian phone number, and he was trying to play it off that it was his friend’s number. 

“So when I was finally done that I didn’t want to have anything to do with him again, he opened up to me. Now, he is about to get married to his Nigerian girlfriend. 

“May God bless them and hopefully they have a long life together. God will bless their relationship. I also congratulated him. And I hope everything goes well for him,” she said. 

Narrating her second experience, she said, “This second was a little different. He was more polite and considered my feelings, but then after a year with him, he decided to come out and tell me the truth that he was a young Nigerian boy trying to put himself through school and his mother was very sick. And he kept thanking me because I saved his mother’s life.” 

She added: “That one doesn’t hurt me much because I know that the money went for good. The other guy, that’s not good because I used to see videos of him throwing money around and spending it on Nigerian hook-up girls. I’m over it. I will bounce back one day. 

“I still have love for the Nigerian people, the men are the sexiest and most handsome men on this planet. I pray that nothing like this ever happen to me again because now I know all those secrets. They destroyed my life financially. Please be safe in that country because I know that a lot of the people there are struggiling. But you have to remember that a lot of American women are struggling too because it is difficult being a woman here and struggling too especially when you don’t have partner.”
