Too bad, the written introduction of that "Umschau" ("Panorama") magazine talks only about (RL) car sales scams.

Were the 6 minutes at the end of that magazine about Nigerian love scams, Vlads or local love scammers?

Was over Friendscout24.de........woman registered there and after two days she got a mail from a "Mark Walker" from UK, 49 years old and widower. Pic from him was shown. He pretend to come from Oxford. They've chatted many times and he called her many times during the day. Later, he put his 11 year old son in the game. This son appeared on the phone and in the chat. He ask her for a Meeting over the weekend but before he have to do in Ghana and for the Hotel he requested at the first 500€ from her. She paid over WU. In Ghana he requested 2000€ from her coz he would come back that weekend for the Meeting.Next story was a accident from the son in Accra and he need money for the Hospital. She must take credit from the Bank and paid once more 3000€.
By luck she got a Message from the german Embassy in Ghana that somebody fooled her. She lost 5500€.
She went to the Police and the IP's have show that the PC is in Ghana and the Mail was was going over UK and USA.
The Interview with the LKA: there is no chance to get them coz Mails and IP's come from a Internet cafe in Ghana, Lagos etc. No chance to get them. Then they've given a Hint to contra-romance-scam. de.....
LKA said that this criminals are worldwide perfect organized. Sources are in Canada, USA, UK and France. From there was 250.000 nigerian recruited which operate from Westafrica out of the Internet cafes, the damage worldwide in Romancescams are around 4 Mrd. $. ...for Germany alone 280 Millionen $ yearly.
The woman found her scammer another 2x in the Net. She informed Friendscout24 but they can nothing do.
