My grandpa passed away back in January and she met a new guy online. she's 74 and he was a 45 year old millionaire from the eastern United States but was probably someone in Lagos in reality. Long story short, he supposedly got stranded in Scotland and needed $60k to bribe officials to come back to the states so "they could be together forever" and she actually sent it to him. This was after several of us told her it was a scam. Why are boomers so fucking stubborn and gullible to obvious bullshit scams?? That $60k was literally her entire savings.
