I was nearly scammed.....was this ethical?

[AhoosierA]

I don’t know what is more pathetic:

Losing $3000 playing .01/.02 NL;
Him thinking you could help him;
You thinking you could help him; or
You sending the money.

I was well aware of the risks. I knew it was a long shot as I'm barely a break even player with Rakeback. Was just a project that I was looking forward to tackling.

Unfortunately it left a sour taste in my mouth
