Naperville Man Conned out of 200 Large

Chicago Sun Times - The Chicago Sun-Times posted a remarkable blurb this week, one in which a man from Naperville, Illinois was conned out of $200,000 by his "online girlfriend." 

Last week, the 48-year old man called Naperville police because he believed his girlfriend had been kidnapped somewhere around London.

In explaining the situation, the man told police that he started the online relationship 2.5 years ago, and over the course of the relationship he wired over $200,000 to the woman's bank accounts.

The bank accounts were in England, the U.S., Malaysia, and you guessed it, Nigeria. 

When the police asked for any pictures or ID to help them find her, the copy of a driver's license he produced turned out to be a sample ID from Florida.

When officers told him he had been conned and his girlfriend did not really exist he "was in disbelief.

I know, I know, I know... a lot of people are gonna give this guy shit for getting straight duped like this.  But I am backing him 100 percent.  Sure, he may be directly financing Osama fucking Bin Laden, but hear me out on this one.  The first thing I noticed about this article was that the guy was from fucking Naperville.  Immediately I thought to myself, "how can someone smart enough to make $200,000 dollars be that fucking dumb to fall for a stunt like this?" but I quickly had to reassess my opinion.  Now if his name was fucking Mohammed al Zahir or some shit like that then I'd raise my eye brow real fast.  But guaranteed this guy is some divorced loser CEO who lost half to his gold digging wife, but still has a couple of trust funds for his kids, stock options, IRAs, aka normal things a 48 year old man from Naperville  might have.  He probably wipes his ass with two hundred grand.  Sure, he might have been putting on a show for the media saying he was in "disbelief" and shit but right now he's sitting in his 3 million dollar mansion in White Eagle laughing at everyone.  That "slut" aka Taliban member he was talking to probably sent him pictures of some dime piece.  Guarantee he knew that he was probably talking to someone in the Al Qaida, but he had to take the chance.  Anyone would have had to.  "Fuck it" he thought.  

I'm gonna give this guy nothing but props until some terrorist asshole flies a plane into God Damn Wrigley Field.
