He befriended me on Christian Mingle.com seemed to be a good God Fearing Man. Then gave me his e-mail address. We started e-mailing then chating on IM yahoo. He had all the right words and stated he taught Sunday School,sent pictures of his church. Told me he was a widower with a 10 year old son. Said he was a business owner who sold cars. He said that we were soul mates and wanted to know if I had a problem with a mixed race. His mother was from India and father was American. Stated that his wife died three years ago in an auto accident on the way to visit her parents in Ohio. Quoted me scriptures from the Bible. Asked if I was still on the website wanted me to take my profile off because he was jealous. Really ladies this guy is good. Then he had to take a business trip and they were going to charge alot for custom charges and the contract could not go thru until he had paid these fees. Told me he only had 25,000.00 on his business credit card to cover. We have talked on the phone and of course trust was to be the main point in a relationship. He gave me his phone number (847-796-0015) He would call me and tell me how much he love me. I thought he was sincere and truly loved me and God. For my mother had a stroke and he would text me from an unknown phone 1224-202-6480 or 1224-202-6597 on how he hoped mom would get better and he was praying for her. Well yes we were going to get married and he shown me the rings. Then he was stuck in Canada and needed money. Be ware Western Union 1st to his aunt name Glenda Dean in New Market Tn, mostly Western Union to Jimmy Couson in Nigeria. Ladies he is real good for when he has you on IM Yahoo and it takes a while for him to respond he is on line with someone else scamming them. I can only pray for his soul for he is hell bound. The picture he sends is not at all what he looks like he will give you sad stories about no money, son is sick needs medical attention or Jimmy Couson in Nigeria is sick and needs meds. Well I'm not through with him yet got my own game going on. I hope they catch this sucker.

- I thank God that you posted this! I was in deep prayer for revelation because I was also asked to send him money. I was given the EXACT SAME STORY. (Stuck in Canada, need money for customs,etc...) I googled this Jimmy Couson person after receiving a request from John to send money to him and this scam page came up. Thank you so much. I didn't fall into his trap of lies, but was on my way fast! Thank you Faithliftedme. I am praying for you. I know we are common sense women, but when someone would stoop to the level of pretending to be Godly.... Well, God says "Vengeance is mine, I will repay. I have no doubt that he will get exactly what he deserves. LADIES BEWARE!!! He's still out there.

- Ladies, I too got scammed by this person. He claimed he was a widower with 2 children, engineer from Norway, now living in Denver. Name used was Bruce Holmes. This person does not exist in Denver. He does have a number with Denver area-code, but never picks up the phone when you call. He usually called me back, but there was always a bad connection which I found odd.Individual does have an accent, but have not figured out yet from what country. He told me he is now working in construction but business is slow. Asked me if I could send his daughter money for her 18th birthday, he will pay me back. Asked me to send it via Moneygram to same person as mentioned above(Glenda Dean on 937 Churchview Street, New Market, TN, 37820) Person and address does not exist. As said above, he is still out there. Don't ever send any money, especially to people you have never met. Really would like to know who that handsome man in the picture is he used as his profile. He is somewhat getting scammed too, not being aware that his picture is used to rip off innocent women.
