Scammed on Facebook

LegacyUser

Hi
A friend of mine , it seems is being scammed on FB, He was allready "almost" scammed a few months ago by a russian barmaid but he copped on at the end .

Now in this same bar he meets a south american girl and has kept in contact with her
thru FB. (she's back in Venezuela)

Anyway this guy is a sucker with women, and the messages he is sending him
are dodgy ... like she is in love with him .. and they barely know each other ,
also seems she wants money to fly back here ...

Her FB profile is totally private , only her friends can see her, so it's hard
to investigate that way .. not that it would be hard to cover tracks ...

Anyway , i dont wanna go into details on how naive this guy is , but he lives
in his own world and won't listen to any negative comments.

Is there a way of investigating this further , like asking Microsoft to investigate has there
been complaints towards this account, or IP they use ??

tell him to cop on for himself, tell him its a scam , and tell him he'll find out for himself anyway if he decides to send her money.

You cant do any more than that, if hes willing to fall for it despite being given advice from friends then you as friends cant do any more than that.

I suggest you look at what facebooks terms and conditions are and contract thier helpdesk.
