this man has stupidly conned me into sending $1000. as he is stranded in Ghana, Africa...he claims he is at the New Timemens Hotel..there is no such name in Central Region where he claims he is...I asked him to send me a picture of him and his son...the photo was the same photo as his yahoo messenger picture and his son was photoshopped on the picture.he has now been texting/phoning me for a solid week asking for money to fly to south africa to cash his travellers cheque of $650,000.00 to buy the gold he needs has he claims he is a gold/diamond buyer for the last 31 yrs. I met him on datehookup.com under the name bettertrut_God..he took advantage of my vulnerability and stupid me bought into it. he has been texting from phone #011233264460708..and 92466201..his cell # 281-896-0522..he gave his address in houston, and i accidentally deleted it..but he claims it was on parklane drive or something like that..i can't remember..i've been edging him on to see how long he would continue to ask for money..and I have all the text msg. to prove it..and promising to pay backk when he gets his travellers cheque cashed. fortunately enough i never gave him any bank info, but changed things at the bank just in case..he has been sending up to 30+ text messages per day since Aug. 18/2012 and has continued to do so to todays date of Aug. 25/2012..but I think he might have caught on now as after I asked to confirm his address..he tried phoning..but i wouldn't answer..hasn't text since I did not answer phone..I will be reporting his phone number to my phone service provider..he does know my real name but not where I live..but I'm sure he can find that out..I will report this to my local authorities as well...

  • sadly i met someone online and thought things were too good to be true. I entered his phone number into google and his name - which he said was James Brian. Low and behold I was directed to this website. He tells me he is in the US Army, but i doubted this right away because his written english was not very well and he was making declarations of love almost immediately. Not that I'm not loveable lol. His wife died of breast cancer and he has an 11 year old son. Very poor grammar and spelling. I questioned him right from the beginning and finally decided to google some of what he was telling me. I didn't send him any money. Sadly I hope no other woman falls for his tactics. Tragic.
