scammers

there is nothing to say anymore

Welcome Dairyquein,

Unfortunately, many victims spend weeks or months in a fake relationship and spend hundreds to thousands of dollars before learning the truth--so while I am sure it has been an inconvenience for you, I'm glad you learned when you did.

Just so you know, the letters on the form don't really matter in this case. NO person outside of the military can request leave for a soldier, no matter how authentic the form looks it is not possible. The moment a "soldier" asks you to help him with leave, you know you are dealing with a scammer.

The more information you can post - emails, fake documents used, etc --the more people we can help to avoid being scammed. Just make sure you remove any of your own personal info. I am splitting this into its own topicso that hopefully we can get a little more info into the profile on this scammer.

Hello! I am new here and I want to warn everyone of a smooth talker. I met him on Gayromeo. His name is Stephen Boateng and his Gayromeo id is boatengk40. His email address is [email protected]. I had been corresponding with this man for about 2 months. When we first met, he was a very nice person. He told me that he is a refugee from Liberia and he now lives in Ghana in some camp for refugees there. He says that he lost his entire family in the civil war there in Liberia (that I can believe) and he has no family. Well, we talked everyday and started to like each other alot. He even tells me that he is against scammers and doesn't deal with them at all. He even showed himself on webcam and he does match the pictures on his profile at Gayromeo. Everything was going great, I thought. The guy hadn't asked me for one cent up until about a month later.

He tells me that he is ready to graduate high school (kind of odd to be in high school at 24 years old) and that he needed 600GHC to take some kind of exam for a scholarship to a college in the UK (which he never mentioned the name of the college). Of course he wanted my help with this kind of money, which now on my job, they have cut my hours and I don't work as much or earn as much as I did before. And he knew that, but yet he still decided to ask me. He says that they supposedly give prizes to the student with the highest GPA (which first off, if you have a high GPA, then you have earned that scholarship, or at least I thought). So I even offered him websites that have free scholarships-he declined them all. I didn't know what else to tell him at that point.


Well, he eventually didn't mention no more about this scholarship and says that he needed 100 dollars to get him food for a week. Now him knowing my situation at my job and asking for that kind of money, I told him that I couldn't do it. He got very angry and accused me of not being loving to him. Okay, I let that go at first. Then he messages me later, lowering the price and told me he cared alot for me. I told him still that I couldn't do it. He got angry again, and this time I did exchange some not so nice words with him. I have reported him to Gayromeo, they kicked him off, but he got back on a couple of days later. I blocked him on my messenger and on Gayromeo. I had to let everyone know, if this guy Stephen Boateng contacts you, please whatever you do, don't respond back to him-he's sly and convincing!
