They were so desperate,

that they fell in love with the scammers.

They didn’t care that they were being lied to, because at least, it was company anyway.

Eventually, the end always came,

because they had no more money in their bank account to give.

One day, the scammers would always disappear into thin air.

They asked, “But I thought you loved me?”

Of course, they knew better.
