Re; Ip address, MAJOR RED FLAGS

Okay, first all, even though you have met this man, inconsistent stories coming from a man usually involve a lies, series of lies, or some kind of cover-up.

This whole ip address scenario sounds absolutely impractical. ISP means Internet Service Provider, and your address can be masked, but changed altogether without company consent or being moved as file? Uh-uh. Doesn't happen.

In my experiences, people (men and women) who are messing around with someone else behind your back or scamming you will not talk be on-line for days at a time, because they are interacting with someone else.

Also, his reaction of blaming you is something I've come across many times. I've talked to Nigerian women before that I've called out on scams, and they get defensive.

Most internet cafes charge money,and it isn't cheap. But $2.00 for an hour, that's a pretty darn good deal.

Look, you did the right thing in calling this man out. He's obviously hiding something from you, and it just seems so not worth the time to sort out through this garbage.

I think you've been conned. Just be glad you caught him. In the sixth months I've been on here, it's only the second time. The other time, the guy answered the phone and said the lady's wrong name.

Talk about a blunder.

I think the best thing you can do on here is move on and find someone else.
