Be careful who you meet online!

Mad stuff, more here

A Jacksonville man says he was duped and robbed by two girls after attempting to meet with a woman he met on the internet.

The victim says he chatted online with a woman, known on her MySpace.com profile as “Natalia”, for two weeks before deciding to meet with her. He says her prfile showed sexy photos, and a blurb which said “just lookin’ for something fun”. That brief, friendly description was all he knew about her before they planned to meet.

"She sent me a message saying she thought she met me somewhere," says the victim.

They decided to meet at what she called her home at the Bentley Green Apartments.

“I went to [the apartment] and knocked on the door, and there was no answer. So I called her and said, ‘I'm here’ and there was no answer."

That is when two girls who were 14 and 15-years-old, approached him saying they knew Natalia, the girl he thought he'd be meeting. They also said they knew where he worked at what car he drove.

"This was not the girl that the picture was of on MySpace," the victim said.

Now sensing something was wrong, he was ready to take off, but was stopped by a shocking discovery.

"[One of the girls] took [a] gun out and put it to my head and told me to empty my pockets."

The girls didn't get much because the victim had forgotten his wallet. They let him go, unharmed, and he called police.

Police did a search of the area and found the two teens with another male suspect. They searched a purse and found two loaded handguns.

He was surf fishing waste deep for tuna and drew a couple sharks (He should of known better. The mention of salary and car was the kind of bait that draws sharks).:rolleyes:

Nice one. And Fairy Nuff.

He isn't a kid, he's just a (mildly) perverted moron. Who are these thirty year old men looking to meet 16 year olds? What are you going to talk about and they will be bad sha5s.

Ha!
I can't believe he was gonna use the, "Oh noes I forgot my wallet. It's back in my apartment. Would you mind if we went back to get it? We can have a drink there before we decide where to go." line!

He deserves it!
Sounds like someone got some inspiration from HardCandy, to me!
