Complaint 31948 Details

Brett Raymond has been carrying on an online relationship with me for approximately 3mos. now.He claimed he was in Africa supervising a farm he owns.(www.oakfarms.net) He also related to me that he was a widower.
When my water was shut off ,he promised to send the money to get it turned back on.I then borrowed 160.00 from a friend with the promise to pay it back as soon as I received the money from Brett.He had me open a PayPal account so he could send me money.I was having a hard time setting up the account so Brett walked me through it like he had much experience doing this.I have not yet received any money.This morning I was contacted by Ethel Davis.She informed me that Brett Raymond had been carrying on a relationship with her telling her the same things he had been telling me.For example how he found her online while searching for an old friend.And how he was attracted to her smile later on relating how he told her he loved her and wanted to spend the holidays with her as well as the rest of her life.She used her grandson's birthday money to send him to come see her.He quit having contact with her after he received the money.She gave me her phone#([personal information removed]) and email address([personal information removed]) for referral if you need to contact her.Ms.Davis was contacted by another woman claiming the same fraud.Ms.Davis also told me that Brett told her he was going to get money from me to come see her.I have saved all the conversations that I have had with Brett on Yahoo messenger, some them a bit explicit since I believed that he truly loved me which he professes in his emails to me.The email address he used to contact me is [personal information removed] .I don't know how many women he has scammed like this,but he should be stopped and punished for using the internet to pray on innocent victims.I have not let Mr.Raymond know that I have knowledge of his scam.I am going to pretend I am clueless until further notification from your bureau.I would like to hear from you as soon as possible.My home phone number is [personal information removed] and my email address is [personal information removed].
