Reply:Hi,



I'm sorry to hear about what happened to you, but not terribly surprised.



I am the tripadvisor.com local expert for Accra, Ghana, and I've had so many people email me about romance scams that I posted a forum topic. Please if you can, take a look at it and add your experience to it. Perhaps it will help someone else.
