Information on romance scams and scammers.
by Lynn Mills Sat Jan 20, 2018 6:13 am
I have this guy online right now ... He messaged me in a post that I responded to on Facebook. He asked to accept me on Messenger, and when I clicked on his name, he has not pictures or friends on Facebook.

I have asked him to send me a photo, with him holding todays date, so that I can be assured that he is real, and not a scammer .... he has found every reason in the book NOT to do this.

He is actually trying to put this back on me .... how dare I mistrust him, trust is the foundation to any relationship ....

I met this guy, like 10 minutes ago.

I can't work out how to attached photos .... but he already sent me a couple, just not what I have asked for.

God, these people are so annoying. I am gonna play this out for awhile, knowing full well what is going on.
Trying to work out how to post a transcript of our conversation so far ... (Not very tech savvy here)

I've tried to bold my part o the conversation below .... not sure if its gonna work though .... but this is it, at the moment .... He went to check on his dog, but he hasn't come back yet ....maybe he has given p on me ....


Hi
How are you doing
You accepted Hillary's request.

Hi dearie
why do you have no friends on your facebook page
I do have but it on messenger lol
Coz I prefer talking and chatting with them, than just having them on friend list
Hope you understand what I mean ma'am?
are you on a phone?

Yeah, on a Wi-Fi connection
And you?
forgive me, but can I ask a favour ..

Of course ma'am, go ahead
there are a lot of scammers out there .... can you take a selfie right now, with the date, and post it here ... then I will know I am actually talking to a real person ... and not a scammer .... Apologies ....

Am aware of the things happening this days around us too
Everyone is worried and scared of talking to each other better cuz of the various incident that happened to them
So I really won't get bothered about you been careful, so as not to fall victim to scammers
But seriously if you don't mind, am as real as the breath you breath each seconds, lol
fair enough , but sorry, I can't continue .....

If you check your time now you'll know it very early in the morning,
So am going to give you a picture lying down
just make sure you are holding the date, in your hands
there is no date showing, so that could be from anytime ...
Huh
I know how you feel but seriously I just had to take this picture now, to prove my sincerity with you
Trust is the foundation of every relationship, so we need to understand each other
nahhh sorry .... Im gonna shut this down ....

So what do you expect me to do then?
take a picture, holding the date in your hand .... then i will be happy to talk to you

I don't have anything like the date, except on my phone and laptop
write it on a piece of paper .....
sorry, I know I am being difficult here ..... but !!


Hmmmm
You giving me task ma'am
yep .. sure am ...

I get your point dear but seriously you are not showing me sign of wanting to believe or trust anyone anymore
Yeah, I realize that .... but I need to be sure .....

Have you actually been through something that tough
That makes you feel you can't believe or trust anyone anymore in life?
Ive had a number of people try to scam me ..... I am wise to their ways ...... this just saves a lot of time and effort.

Huh
I can't deny the fact that you're correct but seriously it not everyone that does that
I know how you feel and how secure and safe you want to be, do think it the other way round too
If I give you all the task you're giving me, how would you feel like ma'am?
I would understand, and take the pic .... its just apic .... no big deal ...

Hmm, really?
Most times it easier said than done
Anyway I'm still looking for a way to do, what you want lol
Just know that I'm interested in you and really want to get to know you more and more everyday
its actually really quite easy to take a selfie ..... you should be able to do it in like a minute ....
Im happy to give you one also .... then we can both be sure of this .

His writing style indicates that he is West African.

The best thing for you to do is to cut off all contact with him and block him. You don't gain anything from continuing to chat with him and are likely putting yourself and friends/family at risk as he will have access to your real information and all you have is the fake details he is giving you.

Please do not tell scammers that they are listed here - it will take them seconds to change their fake details and their new details will not be listed for any future victims to find.
