My 75 year old American mother married a 25 year old Tunisian

I am so sorry to hear about your mom. As someone who has gone through a similar situation, I will say you don't give up on her as I did for my mom. Some guy online convinced my mom and they started dating and before we  could find out, she had already sent him some money ( way over $60k) as he claims he can help her make more via crypto investment and they will then travel the world. He painted all these fantasies which made my mom send him the money. This is a lady in her early 60's but still very much active and blessed with a god gene. I found this group of ethical hackers who you can report issues like this to Spirassp01 on lG. These guys are bent on taking down the scammers and I really don't know how they do it. Two weeks after I reported, The scammer stopped contacting my mom and That was it. We couldn't get all the money we lost but we had peace of mind and my mothers phone is being watched just in case she goes astray again. They are old and fragile and the best way to handle them is to treat them like a child.

@Ozitoun It's funny that you find her annoying yet you are still replying to her posts.

You sound like a typical Tunisian scammer, Rude!

There's plenty you can do; report him to the FBI, file a police report (he will never step foot in any country once his name is on the data base. File a complaint to the Tunisian immigration and located in Tunisia... as well as the American immigration also located in Tunisia.


File a report to western union or any place she's sending the money to him. Once you do this, she will not be able to send anymore money to anyone in any country. Report his name to Western Union, or any other place he's receiving money. Then you must report your mom, she is not allowed to use her grandson's money if it doesnt belong to her.

You can't just sit there complaining and not do anything, if you do nothing, then Im sorry, your mother will not only lose her money but her mind as well, if she hasn't already.


They all say the same story, they have no money, their parents refuse to feed them, it's too cold, they lost the phone, they need money for this and for that. It's a never ending story, and it will never end unless people start doing something about it.

All they do is sit at the coffee all day messaging to other women, this is their job. It doesnt matter if they are married or not, those papers mean nothing in USA, they will get married again and again to anyone for the visa. She's senile to believe this kid is interested in her, that alone is enough reason for her doctor to give you a note stating she's not in her right mind. With that note, you can remove everything she has in her name with a lawyers help of course. Just do it!

This is obviously what it is, a scam....

All good advice from former responses.

And yes not all Tunisian men are the same.

My Tunisian husband never wanted to come to the US, was married for 5yrs...I saw was...because I lost him due to a fatal traffic accident 😢

i came across your mother,i hate that she is being scammed take her on dr phil show. Pull up some you tube videoes of european women and american women being scammed out of their entire life savings. These fraudsters want papers so bad they are willing to go to any lengths to get what he wants. She should know better i would not give her any money to send to him. i will pray she realizes the truth and keep pleading with her.

Either you go there to get some pictures, or you hire an investigator to do the same. She needs to see how he is living by the minute or hour in pictures.

Also find out the names of his other wives.
