I would like to report a romance scam from Anthony Jones , I met him on meetic early this month, and we have been communicating everyday by chat, email and phone .
I am from Paris, France, but lived in the USA for so long that I speak good english enough to recognize accents and nuances of the language .
Everything was fine with Tony, up to this morning, he was supposed to meet me in Paris , and he said he had a car accident, he said he was an Engineer working on Amusement parks, and had last week to go to Nigeria for his work , a big contract he said , & he will go directly from there to Paris to meet me .
This morning, he called me at 6am, saying he is not coming, he had a car accident and was in the coma for 2 days, lost his wallet , he needed 1500 euros that I must sent urgentely to him by western union.
I didn't believe a word of this, and I refused to sent any money to somebody I don't know ... I did some researches on internet , and found your website , ... what a surprise to me !!!
it was too beautiful to be true as they said ... he is using a different email now TONY jones [email protected]
Every morning I was receiving a beautiful poem like this :
My Everything…..

As I think of you today
I am wondering why…
Why I am so immersed to you
I can see your face
Anywhere I go, anywhere I look into…..
Your face that is already
Tattooed on my mind
That’s why I can’t get you out of my way
Driving me crazy sometimes…
And what will I do?
You are my everything
You are everything I need
Everything I hope for….
I love the way you loved me
I don’t want anybody but you…
For you are my everything….
And I don’t wanna lose you
Now that I have found you…..

Your Love is everything I need
From the start of day till I take my rest at night
For you give me hope and life
The dreams I am always looking for….
To be together till the end of our lives…




Come what may….

Come what may
My feelings for you is true
Come what may
As long as I love you
I will always want you…
Come what may
I will always love you
Because you have given me radiance
The radiance that engulf me
Feeling so beautiful and happy all day…
Come what may
I know everything will be just fine
Because you love me too
Loving me so intense
Breaking the loneliness
That surrounds me
Just because you are far from me….


Tony gave me a different phone number also , he said he was from UK and Canadian , not american
the pictures he is using are also different, I can forward them to you , but don't know how?
thanks
Irene

He tried to get me.... met him on match under beetledheart44. He is now going under the name Micheal Bale. I caught him hust in time as he sent me a wrong email talking about being married for 9 years. He also has another new number and claims he is in UK coming home in 3 weeks. Same routine... wife and mother died in Paris pon 2/13 has an 8 year old son Douglas. He wanted me to find us a house for around 350K when he returns. I called him on it though and he said he would talk to me when he stopped crying that his hopes of being happy are over.... has anyone met him ever? I looked up his screen name which on yahoo is [email protected] and the IP address shows CA. I also have pictures that he has posted....good thing I never told my daughter about him... knew it was too good to be true.

"If only I could have come up with the right words to describe the depth of this beautiful feeling that I have for you, I would have whispered them to you the first time we met on here. The best thing that I can do is to show you now.But you are just not here with me darling...You are the best thing that ever happened to me. You are like the best poetry ever composed, the best song ever played, the best picture ever painted. I never thought that someone like me could get so lucky!


From the very first moment I met you I knew that we were destined to be together. It has been so long since a woman has captured my attention so fully or made my heart beat the way it did for you darling. Your smile lights up my entire spirit. Your laughter fills me with joy, and your mere presence will warm any room. I have no doubt you are the woman Heaven has made especially for me.


Thank you for the comfortable conversations and for accepting to be my one and only lover. Most importantly, thank you for sharing your love and wanting to make me your man. No matter how slowly or at what distance our courtship develops, I know standing before God and our future family, vowing to be your partner for life, was the easiest decision I could have ever made. And i know someday i would make that vow to you in person dear...


Each day that passes makes our love for each other grow stronger. Although I know it’s hard for us to be apart, I know there is nothing that can keep us apart forever. Our desires will continue to stretch across any distance, over every mountain and ocean between us. Nothing can stand between us, and nothing will stop me from meeting you. i am finally happy that i have found the last piece of puzzle in my life and it's going to remain that way complete baby....What do we do next my love? We sure do have a lot of things to do next my baby...


You are my future and nothing can ever keep us from our destiny. I miss you more every day. I am here with open arms where you will some day finally be... right where you belong.


I am off to work baby, just wanted to send you an email and make you put on a smiling face when you wake up to read this darling...I miss you so much baby

You are always in my heart and i would always have you in my thoughts baby

Good Morning Darling

Hugs and Kisses

Micheal

Hi Scammed 2010

Welcome to Scamwarners.

I am presuming the email i received this morning was from you, thank you for sending it, I will get those photos up shortly.

If you have anything else that is not included here, please post or forward it to me.

I mentioned in the email that the best advice now is to ignore all future attempts to contact you and he will go away.

Please be mindful that he is likely to contact you under a different name and/or pass your details onto other scammers to try their luck on you.

If you have any questions, now or in the future, please feel free to ask

The last pictures shown are currently being used by him under the name Alfred Hefner. I met him on match.com as pearlheart65 and yes, I fell in love with "Alfred". Only today in his most recent email to me did he slip--there was a line in it saying something about Anthony Jones. So I googled it and it brought me to your page...where my worst fears were confirmed as you have the pictures and even some of the same writing.

He now says he is a petroleum engineer working in the Philipines. Still sticking with the losing his wife and mother in Paris two year ago. Douglas was seriously hurt in an accident as he was nearing the end of his project. He didn't ask me directly for the remaining money he needed for the surgery but I knew he was struggling. And now he is looking for money to complete his project so they can head home--once his son is healed. But he hasn't come out and asked for it but obviously that was coming next!! So glad I caught the line today--feel like an idiot. Wanting this romance to be real--I am most upset about the emotional damage done to me by this.

He had a profile on Facebook. I have reported him to Facebook and match.com both. His email now is [email protected]. Other information he had told me: he was currently living in Davenport, IA. Says he has lived in Boston and New York. Born in Germany. Went to college in Sweden by living with his aunt. Even told me the name of the school that Doulgas attended in Davenport--Garfield Elementary. Said his full name was Alfred Thomas Hefner. Born October 10, 1965.

Please let people know of the name Alfred Hefner!! Now I know why I couldn't find anything on him when I googled him. I hope we can stop this so no one else is preyed upon like us. His name shows up now on the google searh. I am so glad that it does--so anyone else talking to him now can stop before they get in to deep into his trance.
