Attractive man with great profile claiming to be a widower with a teenage daughter "bonds" with you then asks for money to rescue his kidnapped daughte

I am a near-victim of same scam twice in 6 months perpetrated on internet dating sites such as match.com and zoosk.com. Attractive man with great profile claiming to be a widower with a teenage daughter. Is quite flattering and flirty.
Within about 2 weeks, he asks for money because his daughter has been kidnapped. See below for intro message (from dating site) and 2 follow-up email messages.

Hello Name, I am so much happy to read from you, You do have a way of putting your words together which makes me understand that you are truly a God sent and a family oriented woman, I am also glad you are blessed with great daughter who are doing real good. I pray you live long to reap the fruit of your labor.

Sorry about your ex, I understand how hard it must have been for you, but our good God who created you sure do have a reason for bringing you into this world, sorry about your fathers condition like wise, I pray the good God grant him quick recovery.
