Teen Internet Meetings not just in the US; French exchange student Amelie Weisbecker missing with her male Scottish penpal in Scotland
Amelie Weisbecker, 15, a French school student on and exchange program is missing in Scotland. Amelie Weisbecker has disappeared with her male Scottish penpal Conor Cumming after their first meeting. They are thought to have exchanged emails prior to meeting one another.
The pair are thought to have swapped e-mails plotting the escape since the schoolgirl arrived in the UK on 4 July.
Amelie had exchanged love letters with Conor, from Irvine, Ayrshire, for the past 18 months.
It appears that the two had planned this; however, their parents are concerned as neither has much money.
“It appears they had been in correspondence since Amelie arrived. Unfortunately, none of the e-mails say where they intended to go, but they have made certain provisions. They have some clothes and enough money for a few days.
“They may believe they are being very Romeo and Juliet, but don’t have much money and their families are very concerned.”
