“It started a few months ago, when one of the women – whose first name is Mary (or Maryam), according to Life News Russia – got a message on a social network from a stranger. The young man said he was from Syria. After correspondence went back and forth for a while, he invited Mary to drop everything and start a new life with the militants. Sure, sounds great, Mary said, but no can do – I’m broke. No problem, he said, and threw some money her way. Mary allegedly agreed, took the money, and shut down her social media accounts. According to Life News, the three women had other men to milk, and two other members of the Islamic State transferred more money, with similar results.”
