Hi,
I have the usual story; went on vocation, met this DDD guy, had a wonderful time... I didn't expect much but decided to stay in touch, why not.. and he seemed really nice until now; he called me and said that there is this opportunity, I think its from his university, to go to US and work there for the summer. Kind of like an exchange program.
And for that he needs $2,000. He has $1,500 and he is asking me to lend him $500.
I am not giving him any money. But just out of curiosity do programs like this exist in DR? And if they do; $2,000??? Sound way too much for it!
Thanks!

yes my GFs has some friends that looked into it...it was about $1,000 that I heard....which seems like a lot of money to do paper work to get a work visa....

the sketchy part to me is that you pay when you apply... ha ha ha

These do exist. My nephew is currently in The US in such a program...but it depends on what he's studying (i.e. Tourism). This is not to say that he's not playing you..., but the programs do exist. How advanced is he in his career?

thanks for the replay!

so the way it works you apply and there is no guarantee to get into the program??
is it an affordable price in DR?

that it is definitly a red flag...right?

he is in his second year studying marketing. His English is really good.

I believe he'll do well in marketing...

If you feel charitable and expect NEVER to see the money again by all means send it.
Of course you may just be paying his cell phone bill to make calls to his 'novias' but then again you do enjoy talking to him don't you???

In fact, they do.
They're called the 'SankieTripleD2000Catch22'-Programs.
Worth every dime.
Please, send the money.
(If you don't, somebody else will; so hurry...
