Information on romance scams and scammers.

I got this from a guy that contacted me on OKC. Username: strongderrick101. Goes by Riggs Derrick (not to be confused by the military Chaplain Derrick Riggs - which is probably intentional by him). He has a FB page with only one friend - seemed like a red flag. Email address: [email protected].

Thankfully ScamWarners showed up in my search results when I search on "Senior Consultant Investment Manager," which seemed like a fake title.

The subsequent emails he sent has the same tone as other I've seen posted here for Roy Lopez. Same story - divorced 10 years ago, has a son. Sent pictures with the son. Said he speaks Italian. Immediately talked about destiny, etc. right at the begining.

I would never give anyone money, but so glad I didn't waste anymore time/energy on this. Thank you ScamWarners!

My Dear Lady XXX !!

First of all , Thanks for the Birthday Wishes and in reciprocal i wish u long life and prosperity .

Meanwhile, It seems I have been rambling instead of telling you more about me as I promised in my email to you on the site. I am a bit religious, affectionate, outgoing, active, energetic, positive, generous man with a healthy sense of humor who is rediscovering all that life has to offer. I'm a bit of a clown, and playful, I love to laugh even at myself .I am a Fun loving, humble man with the belief that a woman should be treated like a lady and that it is always ladies first. I am a Fund Manager by profession; a work I love to do the way I love to enjoy life. I am generally a happy, upbeat person who has achieved much in life professionally, financially and personally. I am fun to be with and can be very romantic. I am positive on everything that life brings me.

I believe that I am where I am at this point in my life for a good reason. I am an honest and caring person who is very loyal to those I care about. I've traveled extensively in the course of doing my work. I am financially very okay. I consider myself to be a gentleman with good values. I am comfortable in suits and tie as well as a pair of jeans. I am neat and clean in my living and my appearance.

I cannot say for sure if you did view my profile well, here are some information which were in my profile .People are always not too comfortable with 6ft 2" person .
I am 6ft 2"
Athletic and toned
Hazel eyes
I do not smoke
I am a social drinker, divorced .
I have a son that lives away from home. He is presently in Italy with his grandma .
Christian catholic, had my graduate degree and speak English, Italian fluently
I have dual citizenship, American and Italian.
I like and have a dog. I was born on 1st June 1973.

I don't want to sound over excited but I must confess that I am so happy to have come across you and I know that you would want us to take this slowly but I will try to be positive and consistent. I pray that you will not see me as moving too fast or being so direct. I know you will not understand how happy I am to get your response after going through your profile for 50 minute and I made up my mind to write you hoping that you will write back and you did. I have come to understand that I will need a serious relationship in my life.

People say that I play with everything except my work. But what they don’t know is that I can play with my work but not with my love for someone. This is why I prefer people that will appreciate my humorous attitude. I am fun to be with and believe in the saying, ‘the older the wine, the better” so I don’t believe in age being a hindrance in a relationship.

I like seeing soccer, movies and listening to music. I like going to the beach and climbing mountains thou I have only climbed once in Dublin. I am currently attached to Vanguard Investment international as a Senior Consultant Fund Manager. I am a trained educationist which is the more reason i told you that i love teachers and I also learnt the Fund Management trade under Robert Kiyosaki. I worked with him for seven years speaking on investing, fund management and teaching on how to benefit from the content of his three major books, Rich Dad Poor Dad, Rich Dad's CASH-FLOW Quadrant, and Rich Dad's Guide to Investing. It was while on a tour with him to Aberdeen Scotland that I was made an offer by Vanguard investment International. I worked with them for 6 years before I returned to United States and now work as a Consultant Fund Manager.

I have to stop here so that I will have another thing to say in my next email. I took the pictures three months ago when my son came to visit me from Italy. He needed new pictures of me so we used his camera to take the pictures and he printed it on getting to Italy and sent these ones to me.

All I can assure at this point is that you will never regret meeting me if it works out for us; my divorced wife never did, so you will never regret it , I promise!!!

Let’s see how it goes.

Regards

RIGGSD

Another email from him that had some of the same verbiage listed on this site under different names. He made a point to get a new phone number before calling.


"My Dear Lady xxxxxx

I will say that I appreciate the fact that you created the time out of your very busy schedule to read my long email and respond to it. I was trying to fulfill my promise of telling you all about me and nearly wrote a book. I want to be open and hope that you will not misinterpret is that I say a lot. Men with no hidden skeleton say all about them without being asked. I have nothing to hide in life, no criminal record. I am just a simple man living a good life with a good work and good pay. All I need is a woman to make it complete and I will have my dream life because every other thing I need for my dream life has been achieved.

May be I am sort of old fashion that I don’t know the ethics’ of starting a new relationship, Lol .I have not been in any form of relationship for sometime so you will understand what I mean by being old fashion. I would be the happiest man on the planet earth to be in a relationship again. I actually took the Vanguard Portfolio managers job the second time when my wife left me to loneliness. I thought it was over for me in this life but at long run I felt that I should give life another try when my little cousin registered me on the website.

Today I am happy that I did because it has given me the opportunity to meet you. I told myself the moment I got your response that I do not need the site anymore for I have found what I seek. I don't live a confused life. I know what I seek in life and I know when I have it.

I think at this stage I should tell you more about me so that you will know me better. One of the things that make me feel so happy is to visit the beach. I love to watch the sun set and play many games at the beach side. I love to Para-sail and other activities in the beach. Do you know that water can speak to a soul? I will interpret it for you when we go to the beach together

I was born in, Palermo, Italy but came back to the US with my parents at the age of 6.My family have always lived in Fresno California until my mum moved back to Italy after we lost dad and my wife divorced me . I moved out of Fresno because it was lonely for me and the memories it bring to me of my family and my loved but lost ones.

Anyway, let me not bore you with things that I don’t wish to remember

I left United State at the age of 16 to attend school in Hamburg Germany. I lived in Germany for 6 years before relocating to Robert Gordon University Aberdeen Scotland where I had my Masters. My long stay abroad makes people to say I have German accent; whether German, Italian, British or Irish accent, all I know is that I speak English fluently. Lol

I feel very young both physically and mentally. I understand we both may have had some good and worst experiences in our previous relationship but we should try to let the past go and focus on the future because there is hope only in the future. Like I always say, Life isn't as complicated as some people make it. I don't like to dramatize situations. I’m a bit of a clown and playful and appreciate people that are sincere. I don't like games or lies and will appreciate that from my partner.

I have to wake up this early to send you this email because I am traveling to Henrietta, Texas this morning.I will leave here by 8am. I have an urgent meeting with one of my company investor today against our meeting with directors from Fidelity Investment tomorrow. I will be traveling with my laptop so will always be in touch so the next response you will get from me will be from Henrietta. I will be returning by the weekend. I believe that communicating here will help us know little about each other before we can meet anytime you want us to or choose for us to meet. Our meeting is for you to decide where and when . I will be there controlling the traffic for you before your arrival .Lol

I will stop here till I hear from you to avoid boring you with another long email.

Take care."
