Dating scam fraud gang who tricked a lonely heart divorcee, 63, out of £200,000 by posing as a businessman named Kevin on a site for older people looking for love are jailed for 10 years
How lonely does an old lady have to be to want to date a nigger?
A 63-year-old woman who thought she'd found love lost nearly £200,000 to con artists in a texting scam after they lured her in with a fake dating profile.
Sharon Turner, who lives in London, had been single for 16 years when she turned to the internet to find love.
She was a victim of conmen who pretended to be online 'dating Romeos' by telling mature women they were in love with them.
They succeeded in milking their emotional targets out of hundreds of thousands of pounds, a judge heard today.
Described as cunning, cruel and manipulative, the gang logged into online dating sites and, using the false named of Kevin Churchill and Kevin Thompson and began romancing older women by telling them they were wealthy businessmen with international lifestyles.

Before long she and Kevin were exchanging messages every day and he started dropping hints he was wealthy.
Sharon says: “It said on his profile he lived in Chelsea. Later, it said Chiswick. I asked why he’d changed it, and he said women were always after his money.”
Kevin asked Sharon for her number and they started texting and phoning. “He sounded very well-spoken, which fitted with what he’d told me,” she says.
Sharon paid him the money, drawing on her savings. As time went on, she had moments of suspicion. She says: “Some of his messages had an aggressive tone. To test him, I asked questions I’d asked earlier, like the name of his dog. Every time, he gave the same answer.”
