    Unless he Rohypnoled them as well.

    @Decieved or desperate?

    As per the original story (feel free to read it), the man used the images as the first step. Not once were the girls to meet the younger persona since, well, it didn't exist.

    He wasnt asking for "relations" with the woman himself - he made out they needed to give his father a seeing too as he had prostrate cancer and this apparantly helped

    @He Reads El Reg

    A Reg reader a hand model? You obviously did not see the episode of Seinfeld about hand models.

    They may be good at maths

    But this proves on the whole the chinese are just as stupid as the rest of us.

    Obviously this means we must end anonymity on the internet (and everywhere else while at it) so we can make abuse impossible!

    best looking reg reader

    I thought most of us were pot bellied dungeon and dragon loving dwarfs. I can't believe he reads el reg.

    If there was a hotornot reg group, the internet would explode.

    I'm Shocked

    Didn't El Reg know that all its readers are male/female models of the highest attraction. Yes, Yes i know photos or it didn't happen, back in a sec just need to google male models photos.

    You're absolutely right, internet anonymity must end now. I'll go first - I'm Brad Pitt and I can send a photo of myself to your wife to prove it.

    Perhaps to make a few of the female victims happy you should make a lotto and take the winner to dinner.

    Small comfort

    Richie may be horrified by being used as part of this scam, but if it helps at all the victims were only initially enticed by the pictures. It was their own dumb-ass gullibility that got them the rest of the way!

    Who Are We Kidding?

    The only women who'd ever respond to such a request are those who already knew they didn't have a snowball's chance with the real McCoy. Or men dressed as women, lol.
