Information on romance scams and scammers.

Hi, i´ve been messaging on Facebook and Kik with someone who probably has taken someone elses profile.
He claims to be a US military aviator deployed in Afghanistan. There are at least 2 profiles on FB of the same man.
Profiles are of Baron Gladney and John Gladney. Could you please find out if someone has stolen real Baron or John Gladney's personal pictures and if so, is there a way to tell this to the real person?
The one using Baron's name is a scammer for sure. The usual promises to get married soon etc etc came in the first day of our conversation. After a few days he suddenly got sick and then started to ask me for money to help him pay the hospital bill. I know US military is taking care of their sick members without asking them to pay anything. He claimed his card where his money goes is with his minor daughter to whom he cannot get contact because she's on school vacation. A huge :laugh-s: to this all! I didn't even think on sending anything to him and told that very clearly many times. Still he kept asking. I cut connection with him both on FB and Kik. On Kik his nickname is John 007 (bystryki07).
I'm fine but i feel sad for this real man whose pics this scammer is using :|
Thank you :)

We don't contact people who's photos are being stolen. They typically already know it and aren't appreciative of strangers contacting them. Please post any emails (with your personal information removed) including email addresses and/or phone numbers he may be using. This will help warn others.

====================================
PLEASE DO NOT TELL A SCAMMER HE IS REPORTED HERE!
