Chris Hansen had a show about catching an internet scammer and they found a guy in upstate New York who had been convinced that a hot babe was doing a mail order business in the US and needed his help in shipping packages. He would receive expensive items in the mail and forward them to her in Benin and pay all the postage. He believed he was going to profit from this business and marry the hotty who had sent him photos of herself. The photos had been found on some website of course and the guy was a near Elmer Fudd on the babe magnet scale. He was planning to leave his wife to go off with his business partner babe and had exhausted much of their savings by the time Hansen pointed out to him that he was being had. He was doing the 'dang, how can that be' routine. Imagine the conversation he had with his wife when he told her about it. Probably got some money from Hansen and team for allowing his story to be used. I suspect his wife had left him by then anyway.
