Aussie conned in internet love scam
AAP November 25, 2009, 6:15 am
Authorities say an Australian woman who fell in love online was duped out of
nearly $US50,000 ($A54,095) by a Nigerian man who said he was her Mr Right.
Lawal Adewale Nurudeen was sentenced to 19 years in prison and ordered to
repay the woman. On Monday, Nigeria's anti-graft agency said about $US9,300
($A10,061) that had been gathered so far would be returned.

Nigerian authorities say the 28-year-old man presented himself as a Briton
working in Nigeria for a multinational company.
Nurudeen told the 56-year-old woman he was a widower whose wife and only
child had died in a car accident.
Authorities say a few weeks later he called the woman, introducing himself as
a doctor and saying her "fiance" needed money for medical treatment following
an accident.

You have to give me a chance.
