This guy added me on facebook, and his name is Barry Benjamin. We had chatted a lot for about 2 months. He said that he loved me so much. He told me that he is civil engineer and also the owner of construction company. He is living in UK. He told me that he had to travel to Malaysia to sign a contract with Malaysian government, and the contract is about a million dollars. Interestingly, he also showed me his United Kingdom passport and airline ticket to Malaysia.
After he finished his business in Malaysia, he had to fly to Japan to buy material and equipment for his project. In Japan, he offered to send me some gifts to show his love to me. I refused to receive it but he told me that he had sent it already. However, he told me that there was 10000 dollars in the package which he did hide it in a bag. He sent me a picture of a package, and there were my name and location on it which I think he used computer software to write on it ( I erased my name since I don't want to expose my name). He told me that it would take about three days to receive the package, and they would call me when they came to deliver the package. On the third day, there was a phone call but my phone showed "private number." However, they were calling at 5 am in the morning . I did not pick up that phone call. After the third day without any sight of the package, I told him that I did not receive the package, and he said that he would call them to ask about it. Then, he told me that people who are from delivery company had called me several times but i did not answer the phone. In fact, they only call me one time without leaving any voice message, and it showed "private number" so I could not call them back. Then he gave me their phone number and asked to call them to schedule the delivery. The phone number is +16065212767. I checked this number, and it is in Kentucky but I am living in California. I gave it a call but no one answered the call, and the voice mail was not even set up. Barry told me to send them a text message . I did send text message, and they replied that the package is being help up because Barry did not pay the fee and I have to pay $1050 in order to receive it. They want to to send money by using Western Union. I talked to Barry about it, and he told me to pay the fee immediately because of the money inside. I keep playing with these scammers for a while, and I knew it was a scam because of his fake passport and something about diplomatic courier.
All pictures of his documents that he sent me are edited by using computer software. I attach all pictures that relate to this scam (I erased my name since I don't want to expose my name). His facebook link: facebook.com/barry.benjamin.1232
