You've saved yourself a lot of time and future grief.  Thanks for the cautionary message, and all the best to you.

Spot on, the most amazing thing about it though is how convincing it all was , right down to his family. I am beginning to think that they also were a part of it. Tryly heartbreaking day for me but necessary.

 

What should be my next step? Emailing NVC or the consulate to withdraw my case? We are at the interview stage.

Sadly a not uncommon story and if the VJ experience is anything to go by will not be heeded by others as they will consider their situation different. I think this is the third similar post today.

Interview for what?

Sad state of affairs, truly is :(

 

Our interview with the consulate is pending, how can I cancel it? I don't want to react out of anger so I will exclude the part where his intention was a greencard , I will let life deal with him BUT, do I have to give a reason?

I would IMMEDIATELY contact USCIS, NVC, and the consulate to withdraw the petition and the I-864...........

I was one of those who thought I was different, looks wise a perfect match, no red flags, beautiful love story. Oh well, we do not think it can happen to us until it does. I am convinced now that these countries are high fraud for a reason and atleast for me, I would never again do something this follish, lesson learned.
