The conversation got so bad that I deleted off the app hangout that we were text on. His words hurt me so much. I have not heard from him in 21 days now. He has all my information. I tried checking for information on him. He lied about where he worked. I contacted the company he was suppose to work at. I believe it was all a lie.
If you fall into this category, be especially wary of people that you meet through dating websites. I've just been scammed by a guy he payed me compliments and told me he loved me and I believed him I fell in love with him stupidly had cybersex with him and told him a lot of info I got suspicious after he asked for money and he kept saying his phone battery was dying and he often left the conversation after I would not give him what he wanted the money the I tunes card he so wants I told him I can't afford to and I was depressed from him blanking me and making me feel guilty don't fall for it it's all crap block them please don't them get in to your heart and do what it's done to me I'm now so depressed and heartbroken a mess save yourself before it gets to serious. Then 4 days later last night he wanted a lot more, for a seemingly good reason, but when I told him no, he turned very cold, where before, he was madly in love and couldn't wait to meet, that I was the best woman that he'd had the good fortune to meet, yada yada yada. He told me, if we can chat on hangouts, so i said ok.. Fronting as an engineer at Arnold Oil Company.
It has broken my heart. My scammer said he was from Stuttgart, Germany and very quickly asked that we phone each other. I suggested WhatsApp and failed to notice that he didn't use the video but he mentioned it and told me he was too shy.
He told me 'I was the one' after 2 conversations and must remove myself from the dating site and he would do the same. I found everything weird and his accent didn't sound German, He then told me he was travelling to Turkey to get supplies for his incredibly successful furniture company. When the plane landed he bombarded me with texts, One text said he was having difficulties with his online banking and by the way he was coming to visit me.
This was all in less than one week of first contact. He rang me from 'Turkey' and kept calling me 'Sweetie' and wanted to let me know he was having online banking problems. I told him to contact his head office in German - this angered him and he started shouting that I didn't understand German business procedures. When I told him never to ring me again he began to bombard me with texts again - how sorry he was to have shouted at me, etc. I thought I had blocked him but he began ringing me at 2 and 3 in the morning.
This time I successfully blocked him. The fabulous furniture shop etc in Stuttgart, doesn't exist. I just blocked a guy who claims he wants to marry me.
Is a soldier in the United Peacekeeping mission in Syria. At first, it was innocent enough, and I spoke to him on Hangouts. Of course now he has my email, but I blocked him, because next he will be asking for money. I had a similar experience with "Kate Stevens" just as recently as a day ago. Pictures were sent and I verified them as fake belonging to former Miss Utah and Utah National Guard Sergeant Jill Stevens , yet she insisted that she was who she said she was.
After that, I asked for a video chat and we did that. Although similar to the picture, there were obvious differences with her appearance and no sound on her end. Last week I decided to head right outside of Austin Texas to turn off the cell phone and disconnect for a few days. Right before I left, she started hitting me up for an iTunes Gift Card.
I didn't think anything of it and went on about my trip. Apparently my absence caused her to hit me with a number of messages asking about it and demanded a prompt response. Having discovered my "exhaustive point" with the charade while sitting at the campfire, I pulled the proverbial plug on our conversation when I returned from Austin. With the people trying to claim to be military, there are a few things that you can do to call them out on it: If they have time to sit on an online dating site while downrange, they probably aren't downrange.
Most SpecOps members have regular military jobs and the likeliness of coming across an Operator online is less than that of being struck by lightning. Anyway, felt like telling my experience and give some pointers on how to avoid that stuff. Every woman I've ever begun talking to online to this point has asked me for everything from gift cards to shoes to sex toys. Had one literally ask me for my Credit Card information I have been talking with a gentleman for several months now.
He wants me to actually get his visit visa from Pakistan for him. I am so confused.
Please can you help me we FaceTime and talk on phone and text. He was on my Facebook. His fb name is Ali Azhar engineer. Please discontinue talking with this man! A true Pakistani man would never ask a woman for help financially because of their pride and culture! I found you can lose bank accounts, investments and such even if you don't own them.
There was an elderly guy in the nursing home who gave his daughter power of attorney over his bank accounts and investments.
The daughter began to abuse these accounts, withdrawing lots of cash, gambling it, and playing the big shot with her friends. I got on a date site and met this smoking hot babe from Indonesia 21 years my junior. We went pretty fast and we soon began to talk about our future together here in the US. I was asked to supply bank info to her so she could get her money out of her country. In short order I learned the bank accounts got closed and there were overdrafts, the investment house sent a letter wishing the client best wishes since these accounts got liquidated. The owner of the accounts was all pissed.
Now I'm seeing people can get their money back they lost over the internet. How do you do that even if the accounts weren't yours to begin with? Hi, I have met many scammers on line, They normally sweet talk you for months on end. Then say after 3 months they come up with all kinds of excuses about why they need cash. One chap claimed he was on a oil rig and His expensive digger equipment fell into the sea. As soon as I said I had no funds, He disappeared into thin air. Another chap in New York, claimed he lost his wallet, he left it in a cafe apparently. So I said did you report it to the police?
Another time the same chap "William Koch" claimed that he was in hospital and needed funds for a operation. Another us army officer claimed his son was ill and needed cash to help him.
All these men disappear once they realise there is no money for them. I find British men are even worse, because a lot seem to take pride in showing their private parts off. Its a shame that there is not a sex site where men pay up front before being rude and offensive to women. It makes it very difficult to meet a true genuine partner. So I recently started talking to a woman from Ghana who found my profile on a site We have video chatted a few times on Hangouts and it is the same person in the pics that were sent to me It took a couple of weeks before I was asked for money to pay for a passport renewal Then for a medical examination to be able to leave the country.
Reluctantly I sent the money with her promising to send me proof which she has done. Now though she is telling me that there is a police background check that she has to do and after that she can travel here to the states I have told her that I can not send anymore money as I am behind on bills and still getting my life together from a divorce earlier this year, she then says ok no worries and that she will figure it out Has not asked for any more money but still talks to me everyday and still video calls me I thought at first it was a scam but then little things seemed to real to be fake.
Dating and romance scams often take place through online dating websites, but scammers may also use social media or email to make contact. They have even. List of photos, names and e-mails used by scammers to perform romance scam Fake online dating sites, scammers create profiles using fake names and fake.
It has been 4 days since I told her no and she still gets ahold of me to talk and get to know each other better. She says her name is Sherry Walker and I have seen that name on scam reports but with different pictures and what not Keep in mind I have seen her quite a few times because we do video chat and is the same person in the pictures that have been sent Has anyone else here been contacted by a 27yr old with a certificate in accounting from Ghana named Sherry Walker?
Not sure what to do as I am not sending anymore money and she says she will figure it out Should I wait to see if she really does come up with it and comes here or should I cut her off? Other than the passport renewal nothing has been a flag and like I said she is willing to come up with costs on her own Is this normal in scams?
Usually the scammers are using prerecorded videos of a nice woman, and are playing that video for you. And always it is some trouble with the webcam's microphone, so you could never conversate with the spoken word with "her". You could easy check if the Hangout is in realtime. Ask "her" to put "her's" one, or both hands somewhere on "her's" face. If she wouldn't do that, or ask if you don't trust "her", then "she" is surely a guy playing with your feelings. And don't get involved in further converstion.
Remember also that when you are showing yourself on webcam, the scammer is surely recording you, to use your video to scamm other people, possible a lonely women. So take precasuion that "she" is not prerecorded, before show yourself on a webcam.
Watch out for military or police women.
