Bubbles I think you misunderstood me.

What I did was check to see if this person was active on Facebook, I did not do anything about it THIS time. I am by no means actively encouraging others here to follow my lead, as you say, people can do what they want. Exactly WHAT was I doing you consider unsafe? I don't get you on that score.

The reason I chose my login name is for the exact reason I notified Facebook in the first place, forewarned and now twice shy. He wouldn't ever catch me again on Facebook under that name.

I have also studied various links on this site and found the information very useful.

I reiterate: I am NOT actively doing anything further about this scammer, I have better things to do than mess with these characters on the internet.

Good luck to others who are successful.

But thanks for your advice, I have read your links at length and decided messing with scammers is not for me.

Christine: Unfortunately that is not something I can discuss but I can assure you that they ALWAYS get caught. You cannot hide from the technology the government has. However being in the military that should not be a surprise to you. So what do you do in the military??

FUNNY HE DISCONNECTED AND WENT OFFLINE AFTER THE LAST COMMENT BY ME. MAYBE HIS CAMP GOT BOMBED. LOLOLOL

Keep in mind I DONT work for the US governement and I dont even live in the US. Just having a little fun with this guy. Well after this chat I never heard from him again so i thought I would torment him a little more. So I set up another address, never spoke to this guy at all under the "new name" this is my very first contact with him under this name:

Hi There Frank

How are you? I haven't heard from you and just wanted to make sure everything is ok. Please message me when you can. I have the money ready and I just need to confirm some info as to where I need to send it. I would like to get it done as soon as possible so we can talk. Miss you!

Take Care

Elizabeth


hello my angel, how are you doing?,,..it has been a while now, but i must say it is due to my work i have been very busy and i would relly love to be with you more and i would be very happy if i could have a reply by you very soon,,....i have miss you so much and take good care of your self for me,..

Frank

(now keep in mind I have never spoke to him under the name Elizabeth before, but yet he missed me haha what a jerk)

It is at this point that he must have traced my IP and found out I was the same as the government person, as I never heard from him again. (LOL)

I never released any personnel information or money to this guy, I knew from the beginning he was a scam artist however if we keep them on their toes and keep them questioning who they are dealing with maybe we can stop them from scamming innocent people.

Oh, I see all the bs questions and answers I used to get...always asking what time it was here, guess so he got the right country LOL..and he was always disconnecting with me too, claimed it was the connction over there: "oh baby, guess it is the connection here"..!!..!! yeah, right...probably his hour, half hour was up in the internet cafe and when he was at home (I cross-checked the times he was on longer and obviously he was scamming from home because iCafes aren't open at 2 in the morning to my knowledge).

Yeah, always "my angel" and i loved how you got him going, lowlife little scumbag!! Had a good chuckle over how you conned him good!! :laugh-s:

He'll just concentrate on the next one in his list now, you investigate internet fraud so he'll steer clear of you now!! :bowdown: :beer:

Well done!! :D
