Decided to start chatting to strangers on Skype

and there was this one guy who I got personally connected with. He was a man who was down on his luck and in shitloads of debt. Just left a rocky marriage and living at his mums place until he got back on his feet again. One day, he said to me:

"I would love to meet you, but my wife took my car. Could I borrow £5000 to buy a new one?"

Desperate to meet him, I handed him the money.

A few weeks later he said, "Thanks for the car, but it's in poor shape. I can't travel more than 20 miles in this thing. I'm going to need £2000 for repairs, I promise I will pay you back!"

I was a bit skeptical of this proposal, especially since he hadn't started paying his money back for the car yet, but I realised that he had little money so I accepted and gave him the cash.

A few weeks after that, he says, "My car is finally repaired and I would love to meet you. You said you loved the Ducky Diner in the center of your town, so how about we meet there on the 27th?"

I was overjoyed and couldn't wait to meet him.

The 27th came and I got up early. I drove down to the Ducky Diner, ready to meet my Internet friend. That day came and went with no sign of him. I decided to go down the next day, and the day after that, with no sign of him. After that final day, I learned a very valuable and important lesson that I will keep with me until my dying day.

Never trust a guy named Connor.
