Sorry to hear you were scammed. Please post the emails; this will help potential victims to avoid being scammed.

You can tell the police so that they'll have an idea how big the scam problem is, but it's unlikely they'll be able to do anything, as the scammers are in faraway countries with corrupt polices.

I can only see the photo of the soldier in my head......I NEED TO DELETE HIS EMAIL , NOW RIGHT? HORRIBLE :cry: TXS FOR YOUR SUPPORT I feel .....empty.....Yes they do need to do something URGENT to this''scams''....

Should I IGNORE him or tell him I know he is FAKE ?! I'M CONFUSED! TXS I feel like saying to him, I have police connections so I use this against him ......Is like I'm ''killing'' the person on the photo... :cry: AND KILLING MYSELF.....the person I felt so deeply in love......terrible sad

don't worry about him having your information, as long as it's just name, address, email, phone number - there's not much he can do with it. if he has your bank acct# or anything else of that sort - then you have to close those accts.

the best thing you can do is stop replying to him. don't tell him that you know he's a scammer: he will only try to convince you that you're wrong or "tell you the truth" and come up with some other sob story to get more money (like he's scamming to feed his sick mother, i don't know).

don't reply to emails, block him from messenger, don't pick up his phone calls. if you pick up the phone by accident - just hang up without saying anything.

one more thing, be very careful now, you're now on his "sucker" list and he will either try to contact you again himself posing as FBI/police/investigator/etc and say that he can get your money back as long as you pay a fee or he will sell your info to other scammers or he will try contacting you as a different person wanting to date you.

bottom line is, from now on you have to be double careful about anyone that approaches you with ANY story where you have to send money.


i know you feel horrible now, i think almost everyone has been through a broken heart stage and just remember that it does get better.

i replied before i saw your messages, but again, IGNORE HIM, don't reply, block him, don't tell him anything, it's all useless and you're only giving him an opportunity to reassure you that you're wrong. these people are very good, if they weren't - so many people wouldn't get scammed. they know how to play the roles and what to say and what buttons to push.

ignore.


ETA omg, don't think about killing yourself, this is not the end of the world though it may feel like it at the moment. it will get better, this too shall pass (c)

Thank you. I' m alive but I feel .....dead inside. ......I know police is corrupt in those countries, I want to post what he wrote to me, but the foto I' m not capable :cry: :cry: :cry: .....it hurts sooooooo much, I WISH I HAD NO HEART RIGHT NOW......SORRY

no problem, i wish i can say something to make you feel better but this is something you just have to wait out.

also, you did say that you wanted to tell him you have police connections and stuff and i know how bad you want to get revenge on him and at least scare him a little but don't do it. he know that there's nothing you can do to him and any time you reply to him saying ANYTHING you're just giving him an opportunity to hook you back in. some of these people are very good.


ETA can you please post his emails and the headers? the scammers usually use the same letters over and over and by posting it you might save someone else.

Hello VERY_Sad,

I am sorry to hear you were a victim to a romance scam. I am not a female but I can understand your pain and hurt. Please know this happens frequently and you are not the only person that was tricked.

Keep in mind the scammer is a thief and will do anything to steal your money. He will say and tell you anything that will gain your trust. His goal is your money.

You have already been given some good information.

Please post the emails he sent you. Please remove your information. Posting his email address and chat Id will help possible victims locate him here. Do not tell him that he is posted here.

Please take a look at this link posted by Dotti: viewtopic.php?f=13&t=18484


To post photos go here and scamwarners. Mark as fake or used by scammer: viewtopic.php?f=28&t=3219


Please ask if you need any help in posting the photos.

Bryon

Please contacta moferatorstor if you have a question or information about this post.



Please do not tell the scammer he is posted here.
