This guy IMs me on Oct. 8, 2011 2 or 3 weeks after I subscribed to Match.com. he is so very charming, claimed to be 10 years younger than me, but did not care,only cares about the beauty of my inner person,blah,blah , blah. I must admit he really had me charmed, even though I suspected from the beginning he may be a scammer. Several things did not add up. He claimed to ba a civil engineer, his mother was from Arizona and his father was from Germany. Here he begins to fit very closely many of the same profiles I have read here on this site and other sites where online dating scams can be posted. He claims to be a widow too, with a 21 yr. old son in college, his wife died in a car accident on her way home from work 4 yrs. ago, and how we can ease each other's pain,etc.,etc.His online grammer was (typically) very poor, claimed to live on E Jefferson St. in Phoenix,there are no homes (except for shanties) on that street. He very early on got me to disclose my FB page so we could IM there. then after a couple more days of wooing started asking me questions about where I lived, did I own my house, how many cars I had, where the money I live off of came from,and if my husband and I shared an acct.. That last one really threw up a red flag (I, of course, did not answer,only asked him why he wanted to know, which irritated him, "because I want to know everything about you", yeah, right!) The first time we were to meet up, he suddenly the night before had to unexpectedly go out of town on business,and that he would make it up to me and could I give him my address so he could send a surprise, something I was gonna really like, yes ,I gave it to him...never recieved anything(wince!). he called me the second day of his" business" trip, I Iooked up the number that appeared on my caller ID and found it was number in Kansas, even tho he claimed he was going to Chicago. Then just last night while we were ona online chat( which we did every night for 2 weeks) I asked him when was he flying back, he said sometime Saturday and tha the was going to come straight to my home from airport as soon as he landed in KC. "KC? " I asked, I live in Phoenix, he supposedly lives in Phoenix too, he dismissed it as a mistake 'cause he just ordered some food from KFC( yeah right!) so this is when I started googling sites where others who have been scammed by online daters can post their expieriences. And wow,my scammer fits the profile of others posted.Yes he sent me poetry,daily.(sigh).So now I was prepared for the next step, which he took, as I predicted! " My darling, I know we had big plans for to meet this weekend, i received important call from a company that i submit my proposal for the past few months and they want me to come down to a country called Malaysia to defend my proposal.", there it is,THE GIG IS UP!!! So I promptly blocked and unfriended him from my FB page,but fully expect to recieve phone calls and emails from him, which of course I will not answer.
Ladies, beware of this one! He really had me on cloud nine, feeling like I was falling in love, and I am ashamed to admit, he even got me to send him pictures of my naked breasts, Which I am afraid to find out what he is going to try using them for. At least he did not get any money from me,he didn"t get that far yet, and he won't either. If he tries to use the photos to extort money he will get nowhere because I have nothing but a little of my integrity to lose since I am retired. I am posting the picture he used for both his match.com and FB profile,but I suspect it is some one elses picture, not his
