Scam warning

I'm farely sure that I have been well and tuly scammed using the email I posted in this group. I was contacted by a"23 year oldgirl" who claimed to be orphaned in Senegal's civil war and to be in a refugee camp in Dakar."She" sent "her" picture. "Her" description of the refugee camp looked a bit odd, especially given the notion of refugees having internet access. I smelt a rat when "she" mentioned a very large legacy and using my bank account. "She" quoted Christ de Savior as verification. When I googled Christ de Savior I immediatly got a scam warning, which added that there are no refugee camps in Dakar, Senegal. It gave back up evidence too. So be carefull. Fortunately I used an email set up especially for contact from TN members, so I have some protection.
By the way I now doubt that "she" was the attractive young woman in the photo, or even that "she" exists at all. How us old codjers can be conned!
