If you have to ask...

Why would you ask for a pic and not just to meet in person?

yeah, that might have freaked her out. YOU COULD HAVE LIVED WITH A MODEL!

Doesn't sound crazy...most models are poor (until they break out). I knew one that lived in a walk in closet and slept on mattress because she couldn't afford the rent of her apt. She rented out the rest of her apt to someone else.

I don't think it's a scam. She probably signed off b/c you asked for a pic and came off a bit creepy.

She's in England and wants to rent a room from you (presumably not in England), and wants to pay with a money order?
That doesn't sound odd to you?

She did not mention the money order until the end of the conversation.

Yah, and models really aint that rare. I've taken classes with 4-5 so far in the last 2 semesters at a lowly community college. Wow, the last girl in this video was in my speech class http://video.google.com/videop...id=6859109229446839058 Nice girl too!

OP, you failed hard!

Did you read the updated OP.
I wouldn't be surprised if you never left your town.

Oddly familiar... but she didnt say anything about Western Union so it has to be legit!

lol yeah, after reading the update it's a total scam. She stopped flirting when I said I was married. One of the other girls is a runway model from Bulgaria. Dunno why the fuck she was at my school, but whatever! The others were "meh".

This is a very common scam, search around in reference to Roommates.com. Five bucks says that she lives in England and wants to send MO.

Ha! This would be more impressive if I posted earlier. This was a scam that was tried out on my roommate when we were looking for new roommates. We got as far as receiving the money orders and I started looking into the things since they wanted him to send money back. We found out quick the scam. They actually called up about the MO's but my roommate told them to pound sand.

Ask her what university she is attending, what she is studying, and if she is excited about meeting her professors in person.

 

[Capt Caveman]

You know she is really from Nigeria.

Interesting. I didn't know you could be ugly and still be a model!
