To find love is, at best, a Sisyphean occupation, yet it is an occupational activity desired by so many.
Internet Romance Scams are operated by both men and women, straight or gay. The target is irrelevant, the basic script remains the same:
"Hello, I'm upper class, single, attractive and find you attractive, I love you, help me solve my immediate problem, it's financial, send me money and we'll be together forever."

* Gurley is also an orphan, by birth an Australian, but with an American father - she deals in gems and is currently stuck in Africa.
