As someone who has been tricked and is a victim to this kind of ploy I would like to add my thoughts to the question.
About 17 years ago I had a friend who wanted to engage in "no strings attached" sex - you know a sex buddy.
She told me she was on the pill and I wore a condom, secretly she wanted to get pregnant (lied about being on the pill) and stole the condom.
Well, she got pregnant, then she denied it was my child and that she was having unprotected sex with someone else.
So I left her. Then about 6 years later I am attending a trade school and I get a child support summons.
I only saw this child once in my life, I thought about going for some type of custody, but she threatened me with social workers and all sorts of barriers that I could not afford to go through.
It was like if I tried to see the child I was going to be reported to the police.
She even went so far to say that we were living common-law when we weren't.
So I moved on.
Then came the demands for ever-increasing child support through a lawyer and I still could not see the child. Yes, this liar really helped to ruin my life. Yes, it took two to tango but why should I and this child suffer.
I have never ever told the child about what this woman did as I did not want to destroy his life.
And I have only saw him once for 30 minutes when he was 5 years old.
Now I am hungry, I have very little money for my disabled wife and our daughter to live on. And there is nothing I can do until this child is 25 years of age - I have to pay for his education while my daughter has to go out and work for hers.
This woman was on welfare when I met her and she is still on welfare nothing changed other than her lifestyle has been financed by me. She has had free daycare so she can run around and be with her friends, she goes out for coffee, gambles and I have never seen this child with her ever.
I am now the bad guy in all of this and quite truthfully the only way out for me would be to just shoot myself as their is no estate left. I'll be honest and tell you that I would do it if it would not break my legitimate daughter's heart.
About the person calling someone their "baby's daddy" I would say that this is incorrect. You committed theft by taking his sperm without his permission and maybe even a sexual assault by doing so as you did not have his permission.
I post this here so that people can see what they are doing and the effect it can and will have on others.
If you do not believe me write me and I will show you I am for real.
