We have seen scams trying to lure guys into relationships for many years. This was so common that back in 2007, for a few months I collected all those scam emails that I received. All of them were pretty obvious, with some picture of a beautiful girl attached, saying she had somehow found my email address and wanted to talk to me. I remember this as I prepared a presentation with 50+ different pictures and email messages collected to show people and help them learn how it worked.
