Is calling a over seas stranger you know only on facebook dangerous? - Aarika - 11-09-2012 01:14 PM

I'm facebook friends with a guy from that lives in India. I don't know him in real life at all. We have been messaging alot lately and he has been just begging me to call him. My # can be seen by my friends so he has already tried to call me. I'm not gonna call him tho because I'm pregnant and so I want do anything that even seems dangerous. So my questions is am I right not to? Or am I being ridiculous? How could calling him be dangerous? Btw even if i am being too cautious I'm still not going to call I'm just curious.

Yes. Please don't ever talk to this guy again. You dont know who the heck he is.

It's very sensible not to call him. You could just say that it would be too expensive, which is probably true as he might keep talking for hours if you called.

While he might be genuine and just wanting to hear your voice, as he likes what he knows of you, he might also be some kind of crook. He might also be desperate to get out of his country, or even keen to find a wife... unfortunately there are many scams of this kind, and it's best to avoid anything that might put you in danger.

You should delete him from Facebook and out of your life, find a guy in the real world.

Is this a trick question? and also, if hes begging you to call him he wants something from you... does he know you are pregnant? he might leave you alone after knowing that.
