The issue here is not Islam, Nora

The issue here is a man from Morocco who apparently wants a visa or money. Whatever the case is, Nora, this kind of nonsense over the internet is common and Russians, Asian, Latinos and Nigerians all have done nearly the EXACT same thing.

So Islam and its history have nothing to do with it, and yeah, her mother is just being a mother. My mom acts like that sometimes over me as well, but that is what normal parents do.

I would bet that her concern stems from reading my posts and others about on-line dating. People who interact on-line a lot will NOT make good life partners. The fact that Missy's man is Muslim or Moroccan means next to nothing.
