Just wanted to let everyone know that Tom Mcleo is a scam artist. [email protected]. He tried to get me to send $450 USD for a satellite phone to a girl name Chelonda Smith in Bremen GA by way of moneygram. I did my homework and told this Tom guy that this was a scam.I have saved almost all emails and chats that we had. Here is just an intro in what he said to me to get me to think that maybe he might be real.

This was part of the beginning.


Subject: Re: Just to let you know.


I am so happy to hear from you, it has really been a long day and busy time here, I have been so busy with duty here and it sucks more that we dont get to chat always here, I am just so happy that you do understand the nature of my mission here..it makes me feel we have got a real connection. You have an idea of how much it means to hear from you here? I hope you are not working more than expected and have some time to rest, I want you as strong as anything babe, I really understand everything you are trying to say,all we need is just a little trial and see where it leads.All my life has been engulfed with misery and loneliness,i watch my life layed wide spread in front of me and didn't know what to do with it,my life has been so boring and hope with someone who is ready to Love me for who i am now it's gonna change for the best.Hope to hear from you soon.


Here is one of many poems that he would send me:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Can you feel my love when I think of you
Can you give it back the way I do
Can you help a friend that is in need
Can you once a day do a good deed

Can you enjoy a work of art
Can you think of someone when they depart
Can you give a smile when your feeling blue
Can you love someone, when they don't love you

Can you tell the difference between right or wrong
Can you hear the same song, all day long
Can you forgive that which is unforgiven
Can you hold onto a love that has been given

Here is what he said about himself:

Honey,

I really appreciate your mails,as i was told i was born on the 20th of may,1965.I'm from Austin,Texas and that was where i lived before my deployment to Iraq.I lost my wife to cancer in 2003 and i have been lonely since.Hope we can get to chat later,I have missed so much.


I would like to be part of your life, that's why I am telling you more about what I want, I have always been busy with the patrols and missions here, and about me, I'm a loving Man who is really seeking for my true partner to share the rest of my life with. I know that the race is not for the poor or rich, neither the swift nor strong but time and chances happens... am very gentle, kind, caring and good thinking person that doesn't like any one who promise and fail, tell lies and someone that is not responsible. She should be Loving, trust worthy, caring and good.. I am an interesting Man,to be with,i am down to earth,and i like natural things. My way of life is simple and ideal. I am an outgoing person, and a very romantic Man who loves challenge.I love hunting, fishing, camping, hiking, boating, swimming, bicycling, playing volleyball, watching movies, gardening, cooking exercising, dining out, and looking for a serious, confident, purposeful, faithful trustworthy,smart, responsible, honest, modest, kind, loyal, elegant, sociable, sensitive, gentle, cheerful, romantic, considered, responsible, jovial woman who will not hurt me and will know how to take care of a Man like me, because I think that marriage should be based on understanding and support for each other, on real love and understanding...without bad habits, kind honest, decent, educated, Christian faith.I like to receive knowledge & apply them in my work & daily life. I adore new places, new ideas & creative people with a great sense of humor, I like to work harder & receive huge pleasure & creative forces from it....I try to diversify permanently. In my opinion, the woman has to be not only pretty, loving, careful, well-groomed, but she has to be a real personality.I do sports almost every day, I like dancing . I think, all the people have to try to be healthy. I prefer healthy board to have a good form.I like free air of the cleanness at home, like to prepare tasty & experiment in the kitchen,.........but I miss all that due to deployment, sucks though, lol....


My perception of an ideal relationship: So, I like cheerful, kind, overt, honest, many-sided people. I prefer well-bred & well-educated, strong, courageous, purposeful, independent woman, who is fit & sense of gladness every day. Who think, that family & mutual understanding between close people - is one of the significant part of happiness in the life.
When it comes to love, I don't really think age matters as long as the love is there and its for real. Is it true that someone older in age knows how to to care and treat a Man/ Lady? I am very faithful and honest. Always reliable and always with a friendly and lovely advice to share. I am very easy to get along with and can go out of my way, if need be, to put a smile on my partner's face all the time. I will go to any length to please her as well. I believe that god leads and directs our path

One thing I understand about something good is this, no good thing will come easy, if we are really and truly meant for each other, there must be challenges we have to face on our way to achieving our aim and we will surely overcome those challenges. One of them now is the distance, I just hope we can have the phone connection, or work out my leave so we can meet in person. Actually I know that one day, the good lord will answer my prayers and bless me with a good , caring , loving and romantic woman to be my partner. I just hope it's you.


There are two important things to make one's life worth living. One is to have a true friend who will be there for you always to share your friendly advice and the second is to have a lover to share your love and affection with you and make you feel loved.
I had a very weird background, I was ADOPTED, I hope that doesn't scare you away, lol...I am very faithful and honest and under no circumstance will I be unfaithful to my partner or anyone..To add to this I am a choir at the church and I sing very well, I am well brought up and I know what I am required of as a Hubby. I must make sure I clean the house regularly and put all house accessories in order. i will cook for my wife is she needs that, doesn't matter who does that if we are really in love, right? I will iron her clothes, I will be the one to always make Her happy, I will be Her companion through the smooth and rough times. i will share Her quiet moments with Her as well as satisfy Her sensual desires and lots more.Anyone of these is good as many people in the world today may have one of it and will remain happy.I cant imagine any better thing than being with my soul mate at the moment and look into Her eyes and watch the sun start to rise from there. I wish she could hold me and cuddle me in her arms right now, cus, I'm very lonely here and I need a companionship. All I want from you is commitment and attention, I am sure we got that already, now we need communication.I want you to realize one fact that in no occasion will I lie about my personality, what would I gain in such? I wish I could open my heart for you to see so that you can be sure I am for real. I don't know what else to say than to tell you that I will always be myself, honest, faithful, caring, loving and affectionate, I do hope you would believe me, lets give love a chance to win and I pray that we will never regret we do so. One thing I understand about nature is that life itself is a risk, we don't have power over tomorrow, we can only try to make tomorrow a better day by trying our best and leaving the rest. I am ready to risk anything, even my very self, to secure my happiness. There are stages in ones life when one needs to take chances to make sure things are right, I am glad I could write more today because I have the chance to. I will try to chat later, you have been on my mind all day.


I know its alot but I have to get it out there because he is still writing me. I did block him from my yahoo instant messaging. If anyone needs anymore information please let me know, I will be glad to supply it.

Please DO NOT SEND MONEY to the Military Satellite Phone Company at [email protected]. They are just trying to sperate you from your money...........I sure hope this helps everyone.........Thank you for your time...........xxxxxxxxxx.
