Rumbie recounted how she frequently blocked and ignored Enerst’s calls, unblocking him only when she needed financial assistance, then promptly blocking him again after receiving money. Despite having an on-and-off boyfriend, she eventually agreed to go on a date with Enerst, only to block him again afterwards. After three years of sporadic communication on Facebook, Rumbie broke up with her boyfriend and decided to give Ernest a chance beyond their financial interactions.
