From Scammers to "Cammers," Not That Big a Leap!

Scammers have one goal: to get a stranger to send money to someone who's established trust and a long distance relationship based on a lie. They use phony photos, names, stories, and locations. It's their job to convince you it's all true. And that they love you. And that they want to marry you. Then they find a reason to ask you for money. 

Men who want to get women on video use the same strategies as scammers, except they don't usually create a false identity because they're not doing anything illegal.   Exploiting women for sexual gratification rather than financial gain, they'll say anything to get you on a web cam. That's why I call them "cammers." 

These guys want control over women, asking them to strip, pose, and even perform sexual acts on camera while they watch. Never mind that there are "professionals" who provide such services. These jerks are too cheap to pay for it. 

I was sent as a joke, a still photo of a 300 lb+ woman sitting naked with her legs spread over the arms of a chair exposing her vagina. The person sending the photo with the caption "Somebody f-ed up my day, so I'm f-ing up yours!" either forgot I'm 300 lbs+ or was just too insensitive to care. 

When I received that photo of a woman who agreed to pose for someone who exploited her, not once but twice,  I realized cammers are no better than scammers. One just takes your money. The other takes your soul.
