I recently had a guy from MM tell me he was stuck in Africa. Lost his luggage with computer and credit cards in it. He said he couldn't get back to the U.S. After a lot of chatting he kept asking for money. I told him to get a job! I don't remember his name. But be careful ladies...he sent me his picture, but I really don't believe it was him. If I find out what his profile name is I'll post it.

Yes cupcake they fall for it every day i'm afraid, and send huge lumps of money to these people they dont even know. scammers are very patient and will take as long as neccessary, to gain your trust and to romance you. also if you can look at your list of people youve chatted with, you may find him.

AND another one today,

Goes by JACK488 on MM presently, he's 47 lives in San Francisco, CA & makes $1000K (yeah sure!).

He's posted on 3 forums on MM: Who is Hotter, Daughter or Mom & Hot Passion & Is it ok to marry a man who is 36 yrs. older than a girl.

There are 56!!! comments on this guy, most of which are "contact for more info" which is never a good sign lol!

I've received a lot of scam but not here yet, mostly by e-mail :( problem is, it makes it hard to trust people indeed in Africa or Ghana that might just be good people, for example I can be very distrustful of people from Nigeria cause many people tried scamming me from there. It makes it hard to trust other and be trusted, wish these people that scam could be scammed 2 maybe they'd learn, or would they?

I used 2 trust people as much as could but now I'm very suspicious of people I don't know personally for a long time, and it does hurt when you are being as honest as possible and people don't trust you.

Well Best Wishes

All this scamming is too much for me.

Everyone is sick of it. They have flooded the internet dating scene. There are different types of them too, some are considered low lifes, hahaha! isnt that funny? the ones that work for the high dollar cartel are high class scammers. i guess you can tell the difference, because the professional high class ones are very educated and speak beautiful english. I mean almost like talking to a poet.

THIS IS MY FIRST MESSAGE ON THIS PART OF THE SITE BUT I have been corresponding with a man who I met on this site some 10 weeks ago, he said his name was Gabriel Collins and lives in Frederica DE he called himself guardianangel4, having just received an email from a Steve Asare (he tells me he is a friend of Gabriel's} and Taxi Driver in Ghana and that Gabriel has been arrested and is in gaol and that I need to send $3,000.00 to get him out of gaol. THIS IS A SCAM !!!
I want to make you all aware of this man who I met on this website I am sure that they are one and the same person. BEWARE HE/THEY ARE SCAMMERS!!!!!
My reply to Steve Asare was that I hoped the Police would arrest he/them both and throw the key away. I am lucky I was suspicious all along so did not get hooked by his words of undying love etc and certainly would never go so far as to send money to someone or cause I did not know. Just beware, I hope he/they have not caught some poor unsuspecting lady.

Also noticed a member on here with the new username of derrick212 who emailed me Nov. 25/05 under the username then of chrislori05 (which is currently hidden) and he included a phone # with an African country code.

Sure am getting sick of these scammers!

Was on an anti-scammer site and this man apparently is one of the most active scammers, be aware!

Noticed today that there's a newly registered member (blessingplenty)& shows as being 54 from Hatfield, PA using a photo of David George from the Focus Hawaii site again.
This same photo is also currently on MM as username goldmind and he's 42 in El Paso, TX.

Just trying to do my bit to clean up this site.





blessingplenty's profile is gone for the moment...

But now goldmind is an african american living in NJ??? What happened to TX? Perhaps this is a cool job, maybe I can get a job as a scammer and travel around the country too!!! LOL

Nigerian Scammers Turn to Romance Scamming to Maintain Their 15 Billion Dollar a Year Business

New Blockbuster Book Exposes Internet Romance Scams

Romance scamming has become the fastest growing scam on the Internet. The scammers have discovered a new, wide open "hunting ground? for their scams in the Internet Dating Industry, serving 45 million US singles every month along with many more in Canada, Europe, Australia, and Asia.

As their standard "419 Letters" require more work to generate less money, scammers have found that doing their scamming via Internet dating websites to be a lucrative and more successful alternative.

Now one of the fastest growing problems on the Internet, Romance Scamming has elements of evil not found in any other type of scam. Anna Alden-Tirrill, author, former University Professor, and former Rape Crisis Center Director, explains, "Many Romance Scam victims suffer emotional trauma similar to sexual assault victims.

Once scammers make an emotional connection with their victims, they can extract money from them almost at will. Often, they can entice their victims to commit crimes. Sometimes, only the devastation of arrest and imprisonment causes victims to realize they?ve been scammed and seek help."

Interesting point on the temperature (or general weather for that matter), but the problem of measuring in Far. or Celcius comes into play then.

I wonder if we all updated our profile to talk about our careers if that would help.

"I work as a special investigator for the ISAT doing work on catching internet thieves. It is very intriguing work, and many times very tedious with long hours, but it is very rewarding when the extradition papers finally clear."

ROFLMAO

PS. Grapes, sorry about making up yet another acronym on the fly, but it does kinda sound offical doesn't it??? ISAT = Internet Scam Artist Thingy. :o)
