i've tryed, but couldn't mannage to track his posts.
he is really sweet. very passionate, very sensitive, a widow, a shy soldier, who feels lonely and without a purpose on life. everything he posts is avalilable on warning sites. he send me a post this very morning, so kind, very respectfull, romantic, and everything there is available here, in several different situations. i believe he is from that nigeria group.
is there anyting else i can do? he is still posting, so maybe there's a way to track him down...i just came from reading awfull stories about women who lost their life for this kind of thing and really wish to do something about it.
i sincerely hope this information become usefull somehow.

forgot so tell this: he told me yesterday he has some business to deal with in Tailand as soon he discharge. he claims to be about to discharge, and to be very anxious to meet me, in brazil . he dropped this info in a way to make me worry about it, as something that could make impossible to him to come and meet me.
again, if someone knows a way to track his posts, he is still mailing me, if there's a way, so let's do something!

Welcome here emma.

There is not much you can do exept posting some of the e mails he wrote to you, preferably with the full headers. If you don't know how to get the headers, just ask. When posting his e mails, other people may find it and get warned.

Being a victim doesn't mean you stand alone. We're here to help you.

hi, daniel, thanks so much for answering,
I'm really disturbed for this situation. and having an awful time deciding what to do. i'm posting bellow the copy of his posts, except the messages he sent to myspace. i cancelled that account.. his profile is available on ymail, since november 9. he posted me today, and till now I didn't manage to find out his pc identity. and, sincerelly, i do not know what to do with this information. i feel like i'm cooperating with him for not doing something about it.
he did not approach me in a dating wesite: he asked me to be friends in myspace, and as his image and profile didn't suggest anything but a harmless middleaged guy, i accepted and we started to chat via email, at least one time in two days, even more, some days.
i noticed he was weird, but it was a soldier in a war, so i really didn't put a lot of concern on it. i assumed he was really disturbed with his situation, and this sudden attachment was nothing but a psychological condition. but it's too obvious now he is a scam. and that i'm really stupid.
he even forgot to sign his own name correctly in one of the posts.
is he able to find this page if he research for it? i'm really disturbed, do not know exactly what to do with this..
if you have any idea about what can I do to stop him, please contact me here.
thanks again,

emma

this is his email address: [email protected]

Hi Babe,

I hope that you are doing OK and taking care of your self? I don't want to scare you but i really feel that you are part of me now and i will always tell you all that goes on in my life. I was involved in a road side bombing yesterday and will say that am pretty lucky....I had some deep brushes and cuts and presently having some stitches. I thank you for your prayers as i really don't know what could have happened.

I am so grateful for the commitment and dedication you have in this while shown to our plight. I really don't fully know how to express the conflicting emotions that have surged like a storm through my heart all this while.

I only know that first and foremost in all my thoughts it has been the glorious confirmation each word from you has always brought to my heart. I am really pleased about that and hope that as time spins us through it will always get to increase to the better.

You have the greatest soul, the noblest nature, the sweetest, most loving heart I have ever known, and my love and admiration for you have increased so much since we’ve known each other that it still amazes me.

You are more wonderful and lovely in my thoughts than you ever were before; and my pride and joy and gratitude that you should care for me with such a perfect care are beyond all expression.

You are the best thing that ever happened to me. You are like the best poetry ever composed, the best song ever played, the best picture ever painted. I never thought that someone like me could get so lucky!

I desire you more and more each day and that is the most wonderful feeling any man can ever hope to experience. I wish you the best in all you do today and long to be with you soon.

My dear it depends on what you want as regards my email address but naturally is not my style.

Your Bonny


Hi Babe,

Your words has always been so wonderful and encouraging that they have amid this great distance happened to show me how attached and bonded our love has grown over this while and its really like our destiny is here and we have taken it to our hands.

Thanks so much as i will always live to love and cherish this union that has been among us and its really my candid believe and hope that soon we will never be this apart and lonely any more.

I miss you so much and long to be with you . I have written an email to Thailand once again and i do hope that they will have to get back to me with a conclusion because its really not easy thinking about all this and getting on with everyday rigorous activities.

Always take care and do have a wonderful day as i look forward to meeting you .I was in a hurry due to our routine drills i intended writting Nick as you know thats my name too.

Miss you so much...

Your Bonny..

Hi baby,

How are you doing? I hope that you are doing pretty good and that you are having nice time. I am really happy and excited reading your email as it have fixed smiles on my face and given me total refreshment and assurance that no matter what , we can never be apart.

I have really fallen for your heart and the way i feel is really so awesome and wonderful that i can't wait to have you in my life baby. As the sun rises and set , so my feeling and affection for you begins to multiple and i have to make this confession to you now and will not drift from it. Baby, your word are the fiber of my heart and soul now and it seems i can't never ever do with out reading from you.

I pray every day that we will continue to increase and that is exactly what is happening as my memories and thoughts has been all bless and filled with the euphoria of joy and absolute peace of the mind and soul. I am so delighted that i can read all of that from you ,its really sweet and i feel much more relax now and really feel like we have known each other for quite long now.

Reading from always really captivates my heart . I am convinced you were really something special. I felt it with every beat of my heart. Little did I know how right I were. We have really grown a bond of friendship that I thought could only develop over times of knowing one another.

Yeah, we are at the frontier and have seen increased violence over time but as i told you is my life and i have been doing this for this long while but am really in deep thought of a change and will hope for that as we continue to unfold.

Do have a wonderful time my baby and always take care of yourself.

Your Rick..



Hi Baby,

How are you doing Baby? I am so sorry not to have written/chat with you for a while as it have been dead tight down here and am pretty worried, i was suppose to have received a conclusive email as regards the fate of my deposited funds in Thailand , but on checking my email now i was disappointed as i didn't receive any email from them yet.

I will have to email them after now too and do hope that soon i have to read something as i haven't really been myself thinking of losing my funds if anything goes wrong because that is basically my sweat and blood and all i have worked and lived for.

Thanks so much for your time and dedication in writing to me, your presence in my life has really been so so awesome that i really have been thinking what it could have been like if our part never crossed. My Dear, am really delighted and Thankful.

I do hope that you will have a wonderful time and do write me as soon as you can as every word from you has gone a long way in alleviating my life.

I miss you so much....

Your Bonny...


My Baby,

Hope you had a blissful night rest? I just want to let you know that I'm thinking of you and appreciate you very much. I'm very lucky to have such a wonderful woman and I wanted to say thank you for changing my life.
Before you came along, I felt empty inside. You filled an empty void in my heart and I can never thank you enough for loving me unconditionally.

Baby, I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I want to wake up to you every morning. I want to hear you breathing while you're sleeping. You make my life complete and you make me feel like I can touch the sky a million times. You make me smile with your words and your presence has given me much to think and hope on. Reading each word from you has really given me the strong will to face every obstacle and knowing that someone thinks and care about me.

I feel blessed that we are for each other, i feel delighted that this union has evolved. I can't wait until our work schedules change soon therefore we can spend more time together. I miss you in all i do, i miss the aura of happiness that you have always expressed in each single word of you.

Baby, thanks so much for been there for me, thanks for your time, dedication and sincerity of purpose. I will always appreciate you and hold our union in peak esteem. Do take care always and have a wonderful time.

HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!

Your Bonny..



Hi Baby,

Today I sat and thought of us, the beauty and feelings that carry us along. I remember when we first got together like it was yesterday. Two people in two different worlds, I just was in my lonely and empty world, not knowing what life had in store for me or what to do with life any longer. And then an opening of the door of my heart and there you stood, a woman with a heart of love,peace and kindness just as i have been praying for . One day lead to the next, and then days turned into weeks of happiness and fulfillment.

Today, we are so far away and I'm not being able to hold you, kiss you, or even able to tell you I miss you every day, as we go through the hardest thing we have ever had to go through in the times we have been together. Yes, I miss you and can't wait till i come to be able to wrap my arms around you and hold you close to my heart. Days go by and nights get longer. It makes me stronger and stronger. I just want you to know that I will have you in my thoughts each day as long as it will take; one thing I want you to know is I miss you and you will forever be in my heart.

While i laid waiting to catch a sleep last night, I can't help thinking about what my life has become when you became a part of it. Waiting and wanting you has been the focus of my thoughts these days, knowing that one day, all that I have envisioned of us being together, will finally happen.

Your thoughts gave me reasons to wake up in the morning and smile. Just smile for no particular reason except the fact that we are for us. As days go by I feel myself growing closer and closer and my heart is suddenly coming out of its shy spot and wanting to feel what it feels like to be cared for again. I don't ever want to lose this feeling. I don't ever want to lose you.

The tone of your letters is like my favorite song, I can listen to it all night until it puts me to sleep. Yet, still as I continue to lay here and think about everything you are to me, I can't help but wonder, what's on your mind too? How much do you feel, ?

Still, I just want you to know that wherever this road may take us, and how far it may be to finally get where we want to go, always know you are in my heart and in my heart is where you'll always be. Life hasn't been this grateful to me, until there was you.
Thank you for being you. What I'd like to say next, I'd like to say to you personally. Until then....

Do have a blissful day as i look forward to been with you soon...

PLEASE ONCE AGAIN ASK ANYTHING YOU WILL wish KNOWING ABOUT ME. I WILL BE SO PLEASE TO LET YOU KNOW THEM!!!

Your Bonny..


Hi Baby,

How are you doing? Hope you had a nice time and you are enjoying every bit of the weekend. It haven't been roses down here anyway, but as always we are doing what we can to be up. I thanks you for your dedication and commitments in what we share. I have always cherished every word from you and have held them in high esteem . Honestly i really will wish we have a much happier life after now a life that will make us much more closer to each other that we can really share all and be open to ourselves.

Thanks for your email , they are helpful above all it gives me joy that across this great distance someone cares and thinks about me. Life may have many pictures of things but what matters is the pictures we have within our mind frame as i will always say.

Your presence in my life has really turned things around so much in my life that i can't just ignore not saying it...It have been a total change to my person since this while and i feel i owe all the credit to you.

Please do take care and have a wonderful time as i look forward to been with you.Baby i can't stop thinking of how pleasant life will be with you, please preserve that for me as you always i know it will me ours....
...

Your Bonny


Hi Baby,

How you are ok , as i just woke up preparing for mid morning drills.I am sorry i haven't been able to write to you as we have been deeply engaged with offensive.We had some minor camp burn fire in commemoration of the birth of Christ. I just wish i could drop this few words to you. Just to always express my heart and how i feel for you. In the darkness of the night, I found your light.When all was hopeless,your beauty shown bright.

When I thought that I could feel this no more.You touched my heart,to the very core.You made me smile,when uncertainty has mereed my life.You picked me up,when I was down. When all was lost you gave me life. You brought me joy instead of strife. Now i think of you every day and night. you came into my life and made everything right. I smile with the thoughts of us together and even we are apart. The presence of your care stops my very beats of my heart.

Ever since you walked into my life, I have been smiling. There hasn't been a day when I have gone to sleep with a frown on my face, and it's all because of you. Baby, I am glad that you came into my life. I have always wanted the love of my life to be understanding, loving, caring, faithful and most of all someone who would accept me for who I am.

Now I have found the person I was looking for. My heart told me I didn't have to think twice when we came into each other. I knew that you were that miss gap in me. I don't think that there is, or there could be, anyone better than you out there for me.

I miss you with my whole heart. I have never trusted anyone the way I trust you. Sometimes I even doubt myself, but I know I will never doubt you because my heart confesses that too. I know deep down inside that you will never break my heart or never let me down in anyway.

Thank you baby for everything. I pray to God everyday to bless us with life and everything we deserve. I will wish to be for you till the end of time. Do have a blissful day my baby as i hope we talk soon.

Merry Xmas

Your Bonny


Hi Baby,

How are you doing? I guess you are doing pretty better and having time to sight see things as you pointed out. I really appreciate your time deeply , because each word you have written to me has gone deep to reassure me that someone has been thinking of me and this very scenario has been lacking in my life and much plead that you have brought it back within this seeming short while.

I really don't like elaborating on life down here because i don't want to leave panic and stress with you but all i will need from you are prayers as i believe that will keep me and hopefully draw us to the fulfillment of our heart desires.

Thanks for appreciating me as i like that knowing that in my own little way i can really impact a life across this great distance that separates us.

Baby, It have been difficult for us so apart, Life seems to be full of trials of this type which test our inner strength, and more importantly, our devotion and commitments to one another. After all, it is said that pure feeling is boundless and immeasurable and overcomes all forms of adversity.

I really struggle when i want to write exactly what i think i feel because of how it may be represented , but in all am happy fo us and the union that brought us together and i look forward to the metamorphoses of this.

Always take care and know that i think of you.

Merry Xmas.

Your Bonny..

Hi Baby,

How are you doing? I hope that all are well with you and that you are feeling the presence of the seasonal celebrations around the corner. Baby, i guess you shouldn't worry as am not pressing quite fast am just having some fantasy about us and what i long for and i decided to write it down in that way. I strongly believe that we need to slowly unfold and that is what we are just doing and am happy about that.

It has been rough this past days down here but am glad that am alive and intact as your thoughts has been a beam to my life and i so much appreciate your presence in my life. This feeling that you have reignited in my life has been so welcomed and cherished by my entire self because life without communication and affection this long while has totally been worthless.

I deeply cherish your time and affection as i will do all i can to keep this desire burning in us till the end of time. Always take care of your self and do have a wonderful time.

Your Bonny..







Hi Baby,

Hope you are doing ok and that you had a wonderful time? I have been struggling on how to describe the sheer joy I feel with the very thought of you and spending time with you, all this amazing feeling you have for me. How simply thinking causes my heart to beat faster, my pulse to race and my smile to widen. Your words has strongly given me so much hope for a future I have always dreamed of? You have opened my heart and awakened my soul.

Life can be so bored and lonely but when it all comes together there are no moments as sweet as that. That is how I feel about you entering my life. You have rekindled the flame called passion in me. You have given me one more reason to look forward to tomorrow. Now, you are a significant part of my life and I look forward to the day when we can make it so permanent. I will boldly say i miss you so much.

Your kindness, your caring and nature, and most of all the care you have shown to me are really so awesome. You have opened up your heart to me , Baby let this few words be a testament to my true feelings for you. The whole world can see and know how I feel for you.

I wanted to tell you today how good I feel about us and our future. I enjoyed and have longed to actualize this with you. It seems that everything we do is even more meaningful because it isn't just for today ... it's for always. You make me feel really happy, and I'll always love making you feel special too.

I'm glad that I can count on you to be there when I need someone to understand, to encourage, to reassure me and I hope you realize you can always count on me too. We share so much of our lives, but it's nice to know that we can still go our own ways now and then and somehow, the more we grow us, the closer we become.

I'm so satisfied with all we have together and mostly your words to me, and I'm sure that those feelings will last ... that I'll cherish you through a lifetime of beautiful tomorrows. I want you to know how pleased I am to be a part of your life, how much it means to me to know I'll always be cherish by you and only you!

Thanks for your time and thoughts for me , thanks for your prayers, thanks for everything. Baby, please always take care of yourself too as you have rooted yourself deep in my life that all i can think of now is you. I really can't wait for that day i will look into your eyes while wrapping you in my arms to tell you the drastic turn around your presence has brought to my life.

Always take care and do have a gracious time.I hope exposing my mind isn't gonna make you think less of me?

Your Bonny..



our words as i always appreciate reading them and mostly i am glad that you made out time to once again write to me. This feeling i will say is really giving me far more relief that i thought. Before now i really don't have anyone that i think of, so is a new phase in my life eagerly waiting to read from you and also reading from you.

Yes as you said we will unfold to the best knowledge of us as time keeps ticking as what matters is that we can actually feel the need for the friendship that will spin through us which is the bedrock for any relationship.

I really will wish to tell you that you should feel free to express whatever thing you wish to express to me , am really not that kind of person that Judges people or action with conclusions that this is this or that.

So i will prefer much more openness with us because that is my way of life and i think it will allow us the more short time for assessment and decisions.

I hope that you are doing great and that you are having the best of the seasonal breeze? I am thankful that i can really express some of this while writing to you because its a very wonderful feeling and i cherish it so very much.

As regards to questions may be you tell me little more about your relationship, likes , dos and don't, whatever you feel i need to know now although it doesn't and will not change my impression towards you but i feel it will paint a clearer pictures of us and allow us follow the part.

Do take care always and have a wonderful time as i look forward to reading from you.

Bonny





Hi Dear,

I am happy reading from you and most of all for the time you have taken to write this down. I am delighted too with your expression as it basically pointed to the facets that is usually important to the nurturing of a relationship.

I have been to Iraq, am presently stationed in Afghanistan. Life down here haven't been so rosy but in all i will say that i do my best through prayers to keep my head up.

I look forward to getting my discharge soon as i feel is time to get a relationship started. After the demise of my family, life has been so empty and lonely and i have really endured all this while. Not having anyone that i care or think about and vice verse, it has been a terrible moment in my life and i hope that i will conquer that pretty soon.

Thanks for the compliment as i deeply appreciate that ...haven't gotten that for a long while so i will say it really came at the right time and fixed smiles on my face.

You really didn't say much about your personal life as i will like to know more on that i guess that will help us have a clear definition of our heart desires and goals.

Thanks once again as i so much appreciate your time and will look forward to reading from you...

Bonny.
