Craig Branier
Online Scammer
Miami, Florida
Craig meets women online. He says he is Russian-American and has lived in the USA for 44 yrs. He has an accent that comes through even in his instant messages. He falls in love with you in 2-3 days. He claims that he has a daughter named Rose who is 17 years old. He is divorced for 3 years and he has custody of his daughter. He never answered my question as to how did he end up with custody of Rose and not his ex-wife. He never ever wants to talk to you on the telephone, even after over a month of chatting. Then he goes to Africa for business. He then sends you a phone number where YOU can call him. he continues to chat with you online. Then Rose gets sick in Africa and he doesn't have enough money to pay the doctor, hospital and buy medicine. He ask that you help him. He is like $1,000.00 short. Then when you refuse to send him any money, he tries to make you feel guilty about not helping him to get her medical bill paid for. When I refused to send him a dime, he got very angry. Just remember the golden rule don't send anyone money online if you have not met them in person. When I told him that I didn't believe anything he said. He sent me a copy of a US pass port the was obviously a fake.
I just want the ladies out there to please be aware of the fact that Craig is not the only man out there that runs this kind of scam on the older ladies. The story is always the same just a different location. They play on the older women because they then they are the ones that are most likely to have some savings and are the ones that are most susceptible to believe this sad story. These men always have a daughter, because they know that the women will be more sympathic with a daugher. Ladies Please do not send anyone that you have met online your money. Tell them that you need some money form them and see how long they will continue to chat with you.
