Thanks a lot J_H for taking the evident trouble to caution me about the possible pitfall. From what you said, it sounds like a definite red-flag. I will be more wary in my communication with this person, only to elicit what she is up to. I think having a 'punt' is out of question now.
@Dickdiver I understand where you are coming from and apologise for the paucity of the details of the nature you indicated. I did not dwell on it because there is hardly anything to say. I am a complete newbie when it comes to punting - just thought of exploring the scene about a couple of weeks ago, so my punting history is a clean slate. I think my 'likes' are pretty inclusive, having dated some EE and CE women during my stay there, I do not have any qualms on nationality as long as I find the face attractive. The non-traditional source that I referred to is hardly an unexplored goldmine but a word of mouth referral from an equally novice friend who struck up a conversation with this 'lady' from the spammers' heaven Craigslist, but could not go through due to a sudden moral outburst. Hence, the details were passed on to me and my initial reaction set her apart from the typical CL autobot spammers. But her overly pliant attitude rang a bell, which is why I came here in the hope to learn more about her.
