I've found a scammer. What seemed like a nice guy VERY quickly turned into a surreal amount of instant love with no real leading on by me. I hardly said much other than honestly but cautiously talking about my philosophy on life. He's supposedly widowed, has a supposed 16 yr old who doesn't live with him, is supposedly an engineer for offshore oil rigs, etc. My first hint something was up was the info about what he did for oil rigs. I have a dear friend in Texas who really does work in the oil industry and when I asked about the supposed job title he laughed and said it doesn't exist. So I played polite and cool, didn't call him out on his faux pas and sure enough, his letters were a little outlandish to believe. He's supposedly in the Philippines working. I searched on facebook for him and found 2 different accounts, both very empty and unused, both saying similar things but also with some differences.
Finally, in the last email he sent there was something about the things he asked that seemed like they were from a song so I copy/pasted and sure enough: Pink lyrics! I did the same for some other lines and found an almost identical letter written 2 years ago and posted to this site, ScamWarners. His english is hit and miss and considering the education he's supposedly had that has always been a red flag from the beginning.
Let me know when you want the letters from him and his FB links. I'm not going to respond to him from here on out unless its to see how far he'll go. He hasn't asked for money....YET.
