They ALWAYS say that

Ok, so I got laid off so I look for work. Some people don't take this seriously. Like me for example. I have to tell everybody about it.
So there are these people in Africa that always seem to find me and want to have me buy them 300 dolar phones etc but since it is too hard to ship can I send money instead. so I buy a $5 phone once and tell her it is cheap to ship. I never hear from her again after that. They all seem to be that way.

Anyway, I see one of them is on and as I have talked to her before, I talk some more.

Here goes:
