If people tell you these men are gifts, than someone is lying to you. The one's that warn you are really just bing truthful. I have been scammed by two of them both Egyptians. First one I paid for my own plane tickets, STUPID STUPID STUPID. The second man lives in Kuwait, but this one got me tickets to meet him in Egypt, he is from Egypt, works as a english teacher in Kuwait. Here where I know if they are no good, just tell them you have no sponsor and since you don't make enough money, and don't tell them anything, and see what they do. The man living in Kuwait seems a little on edge since I just told him for the fifth time, NO SPONSOR. He either has to get a sponsor on his own, or he will move on. I don't see him sending for me to live there with him, so that tells me he is a scammer, only this time I didn't waste a penny on him. Save your hearts and your pocketbook, usually the good men are not sitting on computers looking for women.
