Mr. Seal has reconnected me 2 weeks later saying he made it from Benin to NY and is in a detention facility for improper immigration papers. Says he contacted he financier who would contact me if I can come up with a credit card. Of course refusing he tries to make you wronged and guilty which will not happen. Local police have been contacted regarding newest contact.
THANK YOU so much for posting. Greg now claims to live in Campbell, CA - the San Francisco Bay Area. He's been coming on strong with me for the past two weeks. Met him through Chemistry. Same background story, but said he has been in Dubai for the past two years, working and mourning his late wife. Declared his unconditional love for me, got 'hurt' when I told him I could not do the same without meeting him first. Keeps telling me it's my 'destiny' to be his true love. A red flag: one of the first things he asked me was if I had an apartment, condo or house. Sizing up my potential, I guess. So glad I found this warning! As soon as I knew he was a scam, I saw every conversation in a different light. It explained everything that was a little bit off. He is very romantic, very persuasive and persistent. BEWARE

Hi cautiousnow. Wow I'm blown away. I actually live in the bay area. Unfortunately I gave Greg 55,000. If you want to talk over the phone please let me know.
I would love to talk with you. How can we arrange that without posting phone numbers on this site?
