I met this man on Match.com, Charles Howell in May of 2011. Very handsome, wanting normal life. After we had been talking he said he got a job in Malaysia building in orphanage. He was a civil engineer and was self employed. He even sent me the bid award, it looked legit.

A few weeks after being gone, he said there was a problem. Someone had stolen his wallet and he didn't have access to his money. He begged me for help. I was leery but he gave me access to his bank accounts and it showed me had money in there to pay me back. So I sent him the money. However, he told me that wasn't enough and kept asking for more and more. Which I didn't send. We continued to talk but he kept harassing me and begging me to send him more. I told him I'd sent him all I had. He kept telling me to open a credit card, to open a bank account so he could transfer money into then I could in turn send to him. I said no. He then started telling me to give him all my info so that his bank could transfer money into my account. I told him NO. I have all the emails and yahoo messages regarding our conversations. He even forwarded me an email that a girl had sent him, stating that he would be better off with her than me and it had personal info that Charles and I had discussed. He was furious with me! go figure. Anyway, we continued to talk but each conversation was about how I was supposed to find a way to get him home.

I have reported him to match.com, yahoo, and will be reporting him to the FBI as well.

Here is all the info I have on him:
