Complaint 91658 Details

I was approached by this individual on Nov. 1st, 2011 via "Are You interested". He was very romantic and loveing. He was flying the Scottland, as he is a distributer for crude oil. His 1st request for money was to help his daughter (Kim) in Italy that lives with his sister for $700.00. Which I sent. Then on 11/19/12 his daughter need $7000.00 for a trip for school. Which I also sent. He then had to fly to Warri, Nigeria to be in touch with crude oil distributers. His next problem was he had no funds for the vessels to get the crude to Scottland, and requested $50,000.00. I had no funds to do that with. So he was always warm and expressed love and life together when I was sending money. And every time I was unable to help him he became cold. And that he was going to be sued for not following up on his contract. I told him I was not able to send him that quanity of funds. And then he was running out of cash to live on. And then requested my to send him cell phones. I sent him one through my Verizon account ($350.00) and additional ones, 4 windows phones through my Dell account ($!,300.00). He stated that he could sell these to obtain living expenses. On 12/ 31/11 he requested funds to pay for storage of the crude and a fight ticket home to me. He asked for $10,000.00. But, if I could to try for $15,000.00. So, going on his request I applied for a loan and was able to secure a loan, putting my house on the line, which was paid for. I then on 1/30/12 wired him $10,000.00. He then was very happy and loved me so much. He sent an email telling me him and a man named Bryan Jones were on their way to pick up the funds. He sent me a copy of his flight ticket from Langos International Airport to JFK for 2/5/12. The next problem came when he went to the port and was stopped as he had not paid taxes on the crude. I told him I was unable to secure another loan as I am on a fixed income through SSI/disabled. The emails turned into spuratic text (SMS) messages. Each one I recieved was always asking for more funds to pay these taxes. And each time I told him I could not do that, he would abruptly end the text. I would send emails, with no reply. I checked with Delta Airlines and the ticket he sent me a copy of was not even real. His text messages went from a yahoo number to a number that has an area code out of Kentucky. I have every here and there texted him. And the past Saturday (3/17/12) I texted asking if any of it was real? He replied "Any of what?". I the simply said "Your love".... No reply. And now he has completely fell of the interent with the exception of his business web site [email protected]/. Which is a site that is now under construction, but in the begining had a more detailed page. We each shared many details of our lives. And I have several photos of him and his daughter. I have all the documentation of all this on hard copy and scans. I was told it would be all paid back with interest by him. I went with this as he planned on marrying me also.As a result of me being upfront and a person that trusts peolpe at their word, I am not able to meet my monthly obligations financially. I am recently divorced and have no family. I also am a quadruple by-pass paitient, which he knew about.
