Hi,
Your “friend from the states” Have you ever met him/her?
Can I make a very large guess here?
You are in contact with some one over the internet.Possible a business deal but more than likely it is someone you have met from a dating site.
(Also could be an orphan with a lot of money?)
This person is sick,very sick,dying,dying a horrible death.
You are the only person that can save them.All you have to do is send money,just a little,and then a little bit more.Until you are broke.
The person in hospital is probably not asking for money,but the doctors are,for medicine.
As soon as the patient is better( ie ,soon as you have paid the money) He/She will meet you in your country.
It is a scam… do an internet search for “419 scam hospital”

There is a hospital called Havana Specialist Hospital in Lagos

Call the hospital directly to see if your friend is there. I doubt it – this is a typical Nigerian scam. They are either going to try and ask you for money to pay for an operation, or will say your friend died and named you in his will for millions and you have to pay a bank transfer charge
If this person is American, no hospital would legally be allowed to contact you if you are not an immediate relative. If a hospital cannot contact an immediate relative, they contact American Citizens Emergency Service at the US Embassy or Consulate.
If this person is really American and in the hospital, you need to contact the US Embassy who will cover any emergency medical expenses if no family member can be reached. They will be able to track this person’s family

If that person contacts you again, inform them that you have informed the US Embassy about your “friend” and one of the consular officials will be in touch with them.
Cut off all contact
