Do you think my workers is getting scammed?

So my worker goes to Vegas, meets a girl in the entertainment business (Stripper), and has been dating her for three months.


She lives in Vegas, he lives in California.

She is out in California with him, and on the way to the airport, says "I think I am pregnant". He goes to the store, and buys a test. She says it was broken.

He gets a call from her today, saying it is positive, and has gone home to Cleveland to be with her family for the holidays.

This guy is nice, but is tipping the scale at 375, and treats her like gold, and makes everyone think he has some big bucks to throw around.

I say that this is a scam, that she is going to ask for some money, and he can walk away.

What do you think?

Strippers are women of notoriously low character for a reason.

Do a google search of "man killed by brazilian internet girlfriend" to see just how far some women will take these scams.

Scam.

Can't trust em.

I heard a story on the radio awhile back, something similar to this. A woman, in her 40s, called to tell about how she goes to a different bar each weekend, picks up a guy, dates him for a little bit, claims she is pregnant and says she needs $500 for the abortion. The man, who is usually married and not looking for trouble, pays. Of course, she is never actually pregnant. Keep in mind this is on top of all the **** most guys will buy her, shoes, necklaces, etc.

Said she made some insane amount of money doing it, about $30-40K per year. Plus her regular income.

I'd love to be a woman with no morals....

Tell your friend to tell her to pound sand.

On the upshot, he got a piece.

But yea, scam.

A few days from now she'll call up with some story acting eiter crazy as **** to scare him or sad as hell to play for sympathy. From there she'll ask for just abortion money and travel expenses knowing that your buddy will do anything to wash his hands of her.

Book it.

Liar!

The real only difference between strippers and pirates are pirates have boats and the occasional eye-patch+

Actually he'd better hope that she is lying or bank on 18 years of 15% + health insurance right of the top.

He should tell her "great! let's get married and raise the little one." See what the reaction is on that. If she says that she can't have the baby because she would be out of "work" for too long, he should press the issue.

I've never heard of a stripper that would settle for a guy who is pushing 4 bills. What a skank.

Or tell her to have the baby, then he will take full custody of it. Mention that she will have to pay child support somewhere in that conversation and watch her run.

High scam potential, but he should probably tell her to start the process for DNA testing by the state, and if it really is his child, he should either attempt to gain custody on his end, or at least arrange for fair support.

What about "Hey that's great, now we can do it without worrying anymore... I bought you a ticket on the next BUS out."

Then, on the serious side, I'd have a blood and genetic test done just to be sure, what if she IS?

I find it incredibly hard to believe that an entertainment professional would scam a morbidly obese suitor.

(But then again, I'm a hopeless romantic).

In the L.A. area listen to AM 97.1 between 3:00 and 7:00 pm. Ignore the annoying character that is speaking but listen carefully to the message.

You must have some high grade strippers in your neck of the woods. I don't think I can say the same for the ones around here.
