American scammed by Yahoo boys twice tags Nigerian men ‘most handsome’
An American woman narrates how she fell victim to romance scams orchestrated by two Nigerian internet fraudsters, commonly referred to as “Yahoo boys.”
Despite enduring heartbreak and financial loss, the woman in a now-viral video shared on Sunday, November 24 expressed her continued admiration for Nigerian men, calling them the “sexiest and most handsome men on this planet.”
She recounted her first encounter in 2020, where she met a man on TikTok who demanded money throughout their ten-month relationship.
“Back in 2020, I met this man. I was with him for ten months, but I got sick of him because he was always demanding money,” she shared.
The deception became clear when the scammer mistakenly called her using his Nigerian phone number, exposing his real identity and a fiancée back home.
Remarkably, she bore no ill will, saying, “May God bless them, and hopefully they have a long life together.”
Her second ordeal involved a young Nigerian man who claimed to have used her money to save his mother’s life. “This one was different. He was polite and considered my feelings. He later confessed he needed the money for his mother’s hospital bills, and she survived,” she explained.
While the first scam left her financially devastated, she found solace in knowing that her support saved a life during the second incident. “The first guy used my money to throw parties and spend on hookup girls, but at least the second boy’s mother is alive,” she said.
The American woman reflected on the struggles faced by both Nigerians and abroad women, urging caution and understanding. “Please be safe in that country. Many people are struggling, but remember, American women are struggling too, especially without a partner,” she stated.
Despite the painful experiences, she remains hopeful, stating, “I still love Nigerian people. I pray nothing like this happens again because now I know all the secrets.”
