Information on romance scams and scammers.
by sakuranbo Thu Nov 05, 2015 11:45 pm
Thank you very much for sharing this piece of information. I searched on the Internet using one of the quotes I got from a guy called Brad Robert ([email protected] and braadleyrobz on OKCupid) whom I've just known through OKCupid. He claimed himself a German born guy who was born in Germany to a German father and an American mother. However the fact that he made several spelling and grammatical mistakes, and the long and well-prepared template-like emails made me wonder if he's one of those scammers out there. And he didn't care much about my unemployment too. Didn't say a word about that. I will share his two messages. Seems like they are too lazy to change their tactics. But thanks to that, we wont fall for the trap.

Hi,




Thanks for giving me the opportunity to get to know you. I believe we are both new to this dating scene, Anyway where there is a will there is a way. I just signed on this site some few days ago with the intention of hooking up the right woman. I'm in search of my Soul & Dream Mate, Lover and Life Companion.




Let me give you a brief introduction of me:

I'm 44yrs old, born on the 22nd of August, never being married, lost my fiancee and only son 8 years ago in an auto crash. I'm a man with a strong heart,loving, caring, honest, compassionate, affectionate. I have a good sense of humor and believe in God. I like swimming, camping, fishing, reading & writing, tennis, Football, Basketball, Baseball, golfing..etc.




I was Born and raised in Germany. My Father was a German while my Mother is an American, My father was in the Military in Germany, We moved to Houston Tx when i was 11 Years old. I went to St. Thomas High School in Houston Tx, and I obtained my Bachelor's degree in Electrical engineer at University of ADELAIDE in Australia.




I have one Sister who lives in Houston TX. She had some disability due to an auto accident which made her lose her spinal cord, Since then "Kelly" has been in wheel chair. I hired a maid to take care of her while I live here due to my work and i have been here in London for 5yrs, I stay in a rented house, I am yet to buy a house, as i don't know where i will end up, i mean the location where i might find the right woman, have got a house back in Houston but i sold it due to my sisters illness.




Likes: I like honesty, truthful, because trust is a vital phenomenon. I like people with intelligence and a good sense of humor. I love dogs and i have a dog "Ginger"( A german Shepard breed)

When i glanced on your profile, my instinct push me to write you, your simplicity really amazed me and i was motivated to send you an email to show my interest. I promise to romance, entertain, laugh, cherish and respect you. I was raised to treat people with Dignity and Compassion. I still believe in romance and feel there is a place for long passionate kisses. There is so much to tell from the kiss. It's all in the kiss. I haven't been able to find the lady I am supposed to connect with but I think she is out there, somewhere. Well am I describing you? I hope I am.

Hi,




Glad to read from you again, You seems like you are very down to earth and laid back. I believe that partners are 100% equal in a relationship and both should be able to feel they can trust each other 100% at all times. I have no trouble showing it for the right woman in public or private. I love to cuddle while watching a good movie, when were in bed, I love to hug and kiss my woman at anytime and anywhere it could be a store,mall or just on a sidewalk.




I want a woman to be my best friend at all time, my sweetheart, love of my life, my partner and my soul mate all wrapped up into one lovely woman. I would be all of that for her and more,I would love her with all of my heart and have nothing but good feelings for her. She should be a very caring person, with a lot of good feelings, be honest, reliable,pleasant personality and have a sense of humor.




The way you express yourself is so sweet and i keep thinking about what the future might have for us. hmm well i believe love is magical and it can be found anywhere, so far you know what you are looking for; you will definitely get it. So my dear, what we both need now is to focus, so that we will be able to learn from each other.




I don't know why i felt like writing more, well i think its based on two reason.



-It can mean that we have a connection, which I think exists.

-Relationship also means to be romantically and sexually involved and I think we aren't at that level.




I think at this point, given the amount of time we have e-mail one another, we definitely have a friendship forming based on some external and internal similarities that are developing into a relationship that will bring us a little closer with good intentions, and the potential exists for the relationship to evolve into something more significant.




I have decided to build my relationship on some key words LOVE TRUST FAITH HONESTY and DEDICATION.. Those are the key words to a relationship and lastly COMMUNICATION which is a strong factor.




For fun: I Listen to music, workout, movies, go have dinner, and enjoy friend's.




Experience on here: I have not meet anyone Yet, as i am new to this, the bad experience is, they only want to talk about sex, and want register to some site.




I believe in asking you questions but i feel i should answer them first before asking:




If i could relate my self to an animal: It would be definitely be a loyal dog. I can be gentle and cuddly as a dog, Caring and very protective.




My idea of a dream date: I'd pick you up to go to dinner in a very classy restaurant. Then we could take a walk through a park. Then we could drive out to the beach and sit in the soft sand and I could hold you in my arms as we watch the tide go out under the moonlight.




I know woman appreciate a man makes them feel special and loved. How would i make the love of your life feel special and loved?




Hmm making time for romantic things to say to my love will rank me one of the sweetest guys in the world and makes her feel special. "I always think about you" Nothing can be sweeter and more romantic when you tell someone you’re thinking of them. Talk about romance overload. When someone tells me the same thing, isn't it overwhelming and makes me feel all warm and good inside? So i make it a point to tell my woman she’s on your mind.




"You make me very happy". Making my love happy also makes me happy, doesn't it? I will take time to let my love know she does. She will definitely marvel with the thought that she’s a part of my life and contributes to my happiness. It’s always fulfilling to please someone so i will let her know she makes me feel special as well.




"You are very beautiful". Telling my woman she is beautiful is one of the greatest weaknesses, nothing can make a woman blush more than telling her she's pretty, or sexy or beautiful. woman value their appearance highly and will take extra time to look good for me so the least i can do is compliment her about it.




More questions for you:




Please kindly send me some pictures...

What do you do for fun:

Your idea of a dream date:

How would you make the love of your life feel special and loved:




I hope i didn't scare you off with my note, i think that is the way we can get to know each other till we meet.




of course traveling around the world has given me a whole lot of experience....

Till i read from you again,

Your new sweet friend.

Brad.

My self-summary
If I were to describe myself and what I’m looking for, briefly, it would be someone who’s opinionated, interested, passionate, engaged in the world; someone who is self-made, funny, interesting, a good conversationalist, warm, and puts me at ease. Someone who can relate to my background, or at least find what my family has accomplished impressive and not look down at my modest upbringing. I tend to be attracted to clean cut, white collar types, but again, I try not to be too picky about that sort of thing. I am Brad Robert a sales man... I'm down to earth, bold, enthusiastic, fun loving, kind, innovative and extremely God fearing. I'm a Christian, and I love to hangout with good people.

What I’m doing with my life
I have absolutely no idea what I’m doing with my life – not my career, romantic relationships, my workout and diet erraticism or the box of mismatched socks that has been sitting in the corner of my room for approximately 74 months. If you asked people who know me, they would tell you that I might even have it together more than most. This is because I am good at putting on a face, though my childhood fantasy of becoming an actor stayed inside the confines of my diary once upon a time. This is my case for trying, despite the fear that can sometimes rattle me into inaction. A manifesto to pull myself up by the bootstraps, if you will
