Ladies: an offer you can't refuse

If you notice, over to the left side of the page there's a box for visitors to submit their own experiences. Think of it as a way to blog without the hassles of maintaining a blog. It hasn’t gotten too much use yet, however, I got this submission, which I’m posting exactly as submitted:
Lawal, 25, from Nigeria says: i need a lady will love and have a trust in her and that she will be mother of my baby. it,s migth be from any english language region in the world.

The reason this caught my attention is because oddly enough the last post I made had to do with dating scams called “Nigerian scams”.

My first reaction was that this was a joke, precisely because of the last post. But then Lawal made other submission on the site that lead me to believe this is no joke. I also don’t think it’s a scam; scam artists would write better... unless... that's exactly what this scam artist wants us to believe. Um… Nah, I don’t think so. I think Lawal is for real.

So, ladies, this looks like a golden opportunity. Notice that Lawal isn’t asking for too much. He’s not worried about your weight or height, if you smoke or drink, or what your religion is. All he’s asking is for you to come from an English-speaking region and bare his children. In return, you get love and trust. Sounds like a darn good deal to me. How many guys you meet at the local pub can promise you trust and love without even taking a peak at your boobs or asking if you shave down there?

Some of you may frown about Nigeria. Well, it is a poor country, but on the most recent survey I saw of the happiest people on Earth, Nigeria ranked number one. That’s right, number one! Happiest people on the planet. What a great opportunity for the romantic among you to show that love can conquer all, including poverty.

So, if you’re up for it, I suggest you contact Lawal and ask him to send you the money for a passport and traveling expenses. Tell him he can send you a check or cash. Cash, actually, would be better.

Oh darn… there’s only one problem: Lawal left no email address. Bummer!
