Military Romantic scam

Welcome, and I'm glad you caught on pretty quickly.

I got him to confess and admit his name was Nicholas (maybe.)

That is a perfect example of a typical scammer. His "confession" is simply another set of lies. Nicholas is Greek in origin. While it is a name that would be normal for America or Europe, it is not a name that would be used in Ghana. This is what Ghanaian names look like: http://www.babynology.com/ghana_babynames.html

Welcome to Scamwarners Sweetchar4550,
The person that you are in contact with is a scammer and a thief. Real military personnel do no pay for leave, it is part of their service benefit.
Please stop all contact with this criminal and ignore or block all email as telephone calls from this thief.

Thank you so much this ant the first time ive been done this way I was took for 1,066 dollars from a guy that said he was a army man a month ago I guess they got me on the list for fraud his name was Larry Edward so I hope everyone looks out for him this one that just tried was Brandon Scott hope everyone looks out for them both and thank you

Hi there ladies,
I have been talking to a man for over a week now, whom I met on, OkCupid and he claimed to be a 'military man' who was a major in the US Army. This is one of the emails he sent me. This is pretty fabricated stuff and not to be believed.

"I am Luther McNamara 51 years old, widowed with a son who is 5 years, I was born and brought up in Turin, Italy I relocated to the states 21 years ago after the death of my parent, they both died in a auto crash on the same day which I was the only survivor in the crash. My late father was from dallas texas, while my late mum was from Turin Italy. I am a major in the US Army. presently I am been deployed for peace keeping missons. I have been in service for the past 22 years."

This is word for word, and as you can tell it is poorly written and clearly not true. How do I know this? He sent me images and my daughter suggested that we Google image search them and as we did, we came to this page and found the exact same picture but with a different story attached, This man is clearly a catfish and cannot get away with this. Some woman may not have younger daughters to help find out these facts. I hope this will help somebody else from becoming a victim because these men are shameful. This website saved me from some situations so thank you!

Could somebody please tell me how to add photos on here?! Because I have tried but haven't succeeded as of yet! I really want to add the photos so I can warn fellow ladies.

This is his email for anybody who has been talking to him too. [email protected]

I have sent the link of this post to the man in question, so I know for a fact he is reading this right now. So, whoever you are, just know that you are a pathetic man with nothing better to do. The laugh is on us, because you are irrelevant. I am sure you will find new pictures and make up a new, and totally unbelievable story, but just know you will be alone for the rest of your life because of these childish and immature games.
Goodbye for now! And I hope to hear from you fellow ladies soon,

glad you spotted the scam quickly, janedoe. Find the link at the bottom of my post on how to post photos here in the forum.
