Why do people think this is a dating site

I've gotten two messages from women looking for a husband. Both said they were from somewhere in the US, but had very broken English. It sounds like people trying to do these scams. If it is I think it is pretty low coming to a site like this to try that crap.

Is there a way to block a user from messaging you. This lady that wants someone to marry has sent me a message back telling me she is stuck in Africa and needs help getting back. I emailed her and told her she was on the wrong site for that. Now she keep returning the same message over and over again

jstreet,

There are both men and women who do these things. Sociopathic people playing with people's lives on the internet. Know your boundaries and keep faith in God to show you the difference between them and those you trust.
Blessings and Regards My Friend

jstreet, just forward the message to Doug and let him know this is unsolicited mail. Ask him to address it. He'll out the scammer.

I forwarded it on already, just have to wait for Doug to wake up and get on here. Guess I can't expect him to be up all night like me.

I had a friend who used to get messages from a dating site. A lot of them were African or Indian women (or so they said)...eventually they would ask for the fare to come visit him. It may be a scam...or sociopaths. Either way, you need to ignore it.

I am ignoring it. Well after I reported it to Doug. I certainly didn't come on this site to find a date. I think it is lower than low for a scammer to try to do that on here.

To a scammer, we're easy targets. Emotionally unstable. They don't have morals.

This sounds different than the discussion called "YOU GOTTA READ THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Where drama started from jealousy or misconception.
Hope Doug can help remove the offenders. They are most likely spammers from Nigeria. When they get a reply, they come on stronger regardless of what you say.

They just kept sending me the same message over and over again. After I told them off.

Our best defense is our own good judgment and the "delete" selection in the message menu.

Yeah I know. I wasn't real sure where it was going and didn't want to delete it if it was someone really looking for help.

I appreciate the heads up. I didn't think they would come here.
I have to laugh when I get the emails in my regular box because I saw Dateline catch one who posed as a woman and it turned out to be a big ol ugly man.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
