I will destroy the whole Africa – British man vows after being scammed by an African

According to Celebrities buzz, an online news medium, grandad Simon turned to internet dating after his wife of 10 years left him.

He joined a website in February 2019 and two months later was introduced to Eva, supposedly a hospital worker from Ghanaian capital Accra. She sent a picture, Simon fell in love and he was persuaded to part with more than £19,000.

In an exchange of messages he even teased out information about his bank cards. But when the time came for them to meet in the UK in August last year, Eva didn’t show up and he has not heard from her since.

Simon, from Soham, Cambs, said he was speaking out to stop others falling for the same scam.

“I genuinely believed the relationship was real. I don’t understand why anyone would treat me like that. I had good intentions and was looking for a genuine relationship. “It has put me off trying anything like this ever again. “I would rather be lonely than go through all of this trauma.”

He also paid £1,600 for Eva’s flight to the UK in August– when he expected her to repay him. But Eva failed to turn up and when he was unable to contact her it became clear he had been scammed.

Samuel has now promised to destroy Africa continent as a whole since Eva who duped him is from Africa.
