I met a Paul Graves via SeniorPeoplemeet.com. He said he was a Sgt. in Afghanistan. He would be retiring in a month, yet he could not give me a retirement date. He said he owned a home in Liberty, SC. He has a 9 year old son, named Bryant. Bryant would turn 10 on 3/15/2012. Bryant was his only living relative. Bryant wanted a laptop for his birthday, "Paul" could not get it for him. Bryant's care taker Prince Obiri, Osekan St. 104, Ghana, Accera 00233 was broke and could not buy a gift for "Paul's" son. "Paul" wanted me to buy birthdays gift for his son. I did not believe him, questioned him on many levels and he would not answer or give vague explanations. I did not send any money or gifts. I put the Ghana address in a yahoo search and found Tiny's complaint. He sent me a photo, he was in camo uniform holding a young boy. He said his e-mail was [email protected]. Not so. I looked up Prince Obiri, he lives in the US.

  • I met Sgt.Paul Graves via SinglesNet dating service. He claims to be 54 years old with an 11 year old son named Mike. He states "Mike" is being cared for by a friend of his Price Obiri in Ghana,Accura.Prince Obiri lives in the United States. He was contacting me through Yahoo Messenger with the email address of [email protected]. I checked the Military base in Afghanistan he claimed to be stationed at - no record of him was found as well as the US base of Fort Jackson in Libery, SC. He indicated he would be through with his tour of duty on October 3, 2012, had to fly to Ghanna, Accura to pick up his son& & was returning home to Queens,NY.He even went as far a placing two calls to me to say "Hi" because he wanted to hear my voice. I had the phone number checked as well, it to traces back to Ghana. Sgt.Paul Graves has a loud & clear profile of doing this for some time, the profile appears under "Scammers Alert". He made reference to his sons birthday being September,24 2012 & asked if I could send $500 to Prince Obriri so he could invite his classmates over for a birthday party. He indicated I could send the money Western Union to Prince Obiri, Ghana,Accura 00233. When I refused he became very persistant stating he just wanted the little guy to have a nice birthday. A fraud alert investigator indicated she has tracked him before & that "Military Romance Scams"are running rampid. This is a highly specialized network in Ghana & the investigator indicates they cover their tracks extremely well. Be careful out there ladies. I hope this protects & helps someone else from SGT. Paul Graves.
