Long story short, they found each other on a dating website (not sure which one) and she apparently is in Ukraine with the war issue is there, he's sending her money and gave her money to evacuate to UK. She keeps telling him excuses, needs money for the Russians who imprisoned her brother, etc., etc.
He's being taken. I tried to tell him this but he swears they are in love and she will come soon to the US to marry him. He's bought a $7,000.00 engagement ring for her and sent it to her.
This is nuts. What can I and my other friends do to help him? We've told him this is a scam, and all, he refuses to believe us. I don't want him to lose his retirement savings to a scammer. I thought about contacting his son and maybe he can do something.
Has anyone else had this issue with a friend?
Any help or advice would be great.
