So I need to give you all an update on this so called 'Scott Downs". - 'Scott Bent'
Met him on the Ok Cupid site and he came on pretty strong for a week. A lot of messaging, texting, photos, asked for sexy photos and after 3 days said he is completely in love with me. I of course was extremely attracted to the photos of a handsome military man with a great smile. He talked about his 'daughter' said he was from Atlanta and much more. Then by day 5 was asking me to give him money to pay a doctors bill for his VERY sick daughter, back in Atlanta. He says he is currently based at Fort Dettrick, Maryland and is a nurse there.
I completely fell for this guy - who ever he is! He knows how to work all the angles, make you feel like a queen and pays attention to you. GIRLS STAY AWAY!!!! he is completely manipulative - used another phone line to scare me into sending him money. It started off small and then went to hundreds of dollars. I did not send and he kept pushing - I walked away and he continued to text me and message on g-mail.
Then he asks me to open a bank account at Bank of America so he can 'save for our future together and a house" ! Do Not be sucked in by his nature.
He is also very persistent!!!!!!
I have new pictures but someone tell me how to upload them?

He got a hold of me on the POF site... Asked me to chat with him on KIK (user name Down, Scott) with a photo in his white uniform. Said he was over in Ghana with the Army as a mechanic. Said he was from South Carolina, divorced for 2 years and has a 9 and 6 year old. I had a gut feeling something wasn't right about him... I am so glad I looked him up on Google and found this site! THANK YOU!!!

I wish I could figure out how to add the photos 'Scott' sent to me. He initially sent me a message through Plenty of Fish --- stated that he was at Fort Detrick on assignment with the Army National Guard, but was returning [to where i'm from] his usual duty station next month and that he would love to meet me. His POF name was: IloveGoodGodfearinghuman1. He closed his account just as soon as he got my phone number saying that he only wanted to date 1 person. He claimed his wife died of cancer in 2014 and this was his first shot at dating. Claimed to be the rank of sergeant and would be promoted soon. Even said that he had been given an award by President Obama. My gut told me something was off and when he became overly complimentary and eager to have a relationship with me within 24 hours of our initial communication, I told him that his over eagerness was making me nervous and that we had plenty of time to get to know each other. He said, "I understand" and I never heard from him again. i was a little disappointed until I plugged one of his photos into http://www.tineye.com --- a reverse photo search site which linked me to this site; where i found he had been scamming people. i am glad I listened to my gut --- it took being hurt a few times to start doing that. Sadly, people don't look for scammers until after they've already been scammed. If someone can explain how to add photos I will gladly add a couple of new ones.
