Man Robbed by Teen Girls, Thought He was Meeting MySpace Friend
Fox 30 ^

Posted on 06/27/2006 7:41:45 AM PDT by Borges

A Jacksonville man says he was duped and robbed by two girls after attempting to meet with a woman he met on the internet.

The victim says he chatted online with a woman, known on her MySpace.com profile as “Natalia”, for two weeks before deciding to meet with her. He says her prfile showed sexy photos, and a blurb which said “just lookin’ for something fun”. That brief, friendly description was all he knew about her before they planned to meet.

"She sent me a message saying she thought she met me somewhere," says the victim.

They decided to meet at what she called her home at the Bentley Green Apartments.

“I went to [the apartment] and knocked on the door, and there was no answer. So I called her and said, ‘I'm here’ and there was no answer."

That is when two girls who were 14 and 15-years-old, approached him saying they knew Natalia, the girl he thought he'd be meeting. They also said they knew where he worked at what car he drove.

"This was not the girl that the picture was of on MySpace," the victim said.

Now sensing something was wrong, he was ready to take off, but was stopped by a shocking discovery.

"[One of the girls] took [a] gun out and put it to my head and told me to empty my pockets."

The girls didn't get much because the victim had forgotten his wallet. They let him go, unharmed, and he called police.

Police did a search of the area and found the two teens with another male suspect. They searched a purse and found two loaded handguns.

Myspace.com may have been developed for friends and music, but this victim had to find out the hard way that not everyone is logging on for the right reasons.

The so-called Natalia did tell the victim that she was 18, so he was shocked to learn he was actually talking to a 14-year-old. He says he has since removed personal information from his MySpace profile, like his salary and the kind of car that he drives.

Those teenagers are now charged with armed robbery and carrying a concealed firearm.

Predators at that age. Lock em up and throw away the key, or they will murder someone.

My spidey sense tells me that he was there for something more than just a fun chat. Once the girls tell the police the whole story, they, and he, can count on corresponding as "pen" pals.

One lead pellet inserted into the head just behind the ear at about 1,000 fps will work wonders on their rehabilitation.
The guy is a sucker and fool who was being led around by his willie.

Who would think that this would end badly?

"Shocked"? The writer has a great sense of humor.

My gut reaction to this is:

How many guys responded to this same ploy at this same posting and got robbed and never reported it?

Just because these two twits are 14/15 doesnt mean that they dont have advanced criminal education and intentions.

A cautionary tale of what happens when a man lets the little head think for the big head.

"He thought he was going to see an 18 yo he's the victim here."

Nothing in the article demonstrates that he actually "thought." Now, as for having a gun pointed at his head, I do agree that he is a victim. My suggestion to you though is to read more fairy tales. I'm sure you believe that someone could plant some magic beans and climb up the beanstalk and steal the giant's gold. It's true, it's true, I read it in a book.

You're probably right. I doubt they were "virgins"

I guess that statement puts me in the "blame the man camp." Like I said, read some more fairy tales, or for that matter, read.
