i was just been fraud by a man introduced him self as valentino tito age 35
italiano, live in u.k, worked in AGIP as engineer n construction on platform.......
he says so much about sweet words n marrich.........
we have been connected for two weeks until i know he is a love scammer
he said that he'll come to my country which is indonesia, by 2 months
2 introduce him self officially as my boyfriend n wanna have engaged.
he said that the reason why he chosen me was because he dont believe with western ladies again
he was cheated by his 6 years ago girlfriend n saw her with his best friend making love in his room....
n then he said that he wants 2 b like his friend that married with an asian woman
having baby n live peacefully on canada.
he said that he is getting older n hopes for children, felt lonely 2 come home with empty houses
cause his sisters are married n his parents are back in italy
he offer me that after we got married he'll take me back 2 london n get me some jobs there........
he even proposed me in his email letter
we keep replying emails every night n morning, before our activities n before we go 2 sleep
he said that the only things that he wants from me was for me to keep praying for his safety cause he
works on oil company that risky
i am a muslim but he said no matter what ethnic, races, religion n country, he will come n marry me...
and no matter what problems we might found on our journey, we can solved it.
he sounds very3 convincing in every email letters
until yesterday, im visiting this website n read about romance scams
n then i visit all scam tracker on internet n investigating deeply
also checking on his IP address based on his email address
i found out that he's been lying 2 me.......
he said that he is in london but the IP address shows him at malaysia
so im getting suspicious of it, i even cant sleep all night long just thinking of this...
so i ask him about have somehow has he lied 2 me...
i tell him that im investigating him n tell him about the romance shaver and the IP address...
then he replies me as if he was mad at me cause being 2 suspicious n how dare i am being
not trusting him
at the end of the line he said 'thank u, i understand', n he acted like ' ok, uve gone 2 far'
' u dont have faiths in me then we got nothing 2 build here'
after i received that letter, i become a guilty person....
so i send an apologize letter for him........
all night long i kept sending it n think about it...
i even cried my self out cause somehow i really like him.........
n he'd build some hopes inside me n makes me give my little heart 4 him 2 keep...
it was a very romantic relationship, it was 100% reassure n its looks n feels like 100% real.
after i finished my tears, i fall a sleep,
by morning im still trying 2 contact n send him an email
n suddenly he appears.........
so i try so hard 2 make him talk n make peace with him.....
but he kept ignoring me........
n then after some times he ask me to turn my cam on so that he can c me.....
so i tried 2 turn it on
but its 2 bad my ym goes error if im trying to turn on my cam, but still im struggling
so i try my cam on skype........ n resulted my cam on nice.......
so i told him 2 have chat by skype n he agrees with my idea
after he sees n talk online with me on skype, he told me that he has forgive me
but after that he wants me to take my clothes off...
i refused his request n suddenly he got something else to do, so he said that he wants 2 sign out.....
but i stopped him by saying that i want 2 c his face first........
he told me that he doesnt know how to turn him cam on at skype
so i told him 2 use ym n again he agrees with my idea.......
so turned on my ym n there he is inside that video boxes trying 2 have chat with me....
but what strange from it was his face is bit different from his picture that he has sent 2 me...
his face are 80% precise from his pictures, like his white skins, face shapes, nose n lips are look a like, he even got the same bold heads with those little hairs above it....
but somehow the things that i love the most from him; its his shapes of eyes with his eyebrow, they are turned out different...
so i start 2 matched his pictures with his true face at the moment...
while i kept seeking the differences, i ask him ' ur eyes looks different '
n then he acting like he mad again with me n says i played him.......
from there im positive that he just fraud me n use others pictures 2 scam me...
so as he mad at me, i just kept on smiling at him.......
then he turned his cam off.......... then i turn my cam off.....
though im totally hurt n heart breaking....... but im so released..........
im just saying that scammers can be so cruel playing with others heart.........
so please be cautious....
i knew him from myspace, here i inserted his pictures below that ive upload on upload eater ...
im just pity with that cute man that he used to fraud me........
i guess the real person on that photos definitely innocent n not knowing his pictures has been used to fraud people............

Welcome mandajulia,

I am sorry to hear that you were scammed. You are right, though--there is no doubt that he is a scammer, and not the man in the photos. There are a lot of African scammers operating out of Malaysia, and the scenario you describe is typical of an African scammer, so it more than likely that the person writing to you is African.

Unfortunately, these scammers are completely heartless. They will continue to lie to you again and again, and don't care what harm they do to you, in an effort to get your money.

He may try to contact you again. If he does, the best thing you can do is ignore him. Do not respond to him at all, and block him from your messenger and skype if you can.

He may try to approach you with a completely new name and character, so just make sure you are careful with new people you meet.

thank u dotti..
its a very heart breaking moment 4 me... but i guess it just another experience for some reasons...
so r u saying that the video that we got our self chat into was fake 2?
well thats quite sophisticated...
i have tried 2 find his IP address through google satellite....
n i found him near lebuh cintra penang malaysia...
n the phone number that he use 2 call me was 'sekurang' indonesia
but the phone codes is a homeline which lead 2 batam sekupang...
n i think he use voip call......
n when i track his email address were california...
well that makes me quite confused......
i hope i wont met any others money digger n romance scammer ever again...
the bad side is, people who search for the real mate on internet,
found them self hard 2 trust by anyone n difficult to search because else that fake
was more attractive than the real true one.....
or people thats being true, more attracts 4 scammer 2 having approach...
so far i loss my love n hopes that once had with that fake dolls...
but thats ok.... ill live with it n starting a new beginning... :oh-joy:
god bless u....

Hi manadajulia,
I am so sorry for your pain... it is very difficult time for you but you will get better and like for many of us victims of love scams - with time come healing. Scamers manipulated you into feelings which they need us to develop like trust, love, guilt when we won't play according to their plans.
Once you break contacts with him you'll experience a viod, emptiness and lots of pain but be grateful scam hasn't go any further. Do not worry, saddeness and all those nasty feelings of being taken for a fool and lied to will go away and from this experience you will learn a valuable lesson for your future. You need to read more posts in this site and other sities fighting scamers so you'll learn how to recognise scamers at first glance and never become a victim again.Learn all about red flags, templates, schemes, MO and other aviliable things which will help you to stay safe when dating on internet.
Take one day at the time, be prepared that you will have better and bad days but it will get better soon.
For happy new begginings!

Web cam is much easier to fake than you would think--all you need is the right software. If the person has posted video of himself anywhere (like youtube), the software will pretty much do all the work.

I AM SORRY FOR YOUR HEARTBREAK, BUT THIS MAN SOUNDS JUST LIKE THE MAN THAT TRIED TO SCAM ME. ALL THE DETAILS BUT THE PIC IS DIFFERENT. I BELIEVE HIS REAL NAME IS FRANK MORGAN. HE IS FROM NIGERIA. HE GOES BY MANY EMAILS AND USER NAMES. HE USED THE NAME GABRIEL VICENTE FOR ME. ALOT OF THE WORDING THAT U DESCRIBED SOUNDED EXACTLY LIKE HIM TO ME. HE WANTED TO MARRY ME AND COME OVER AND STAY WITH ME ALSO. HE WAS A REAL CHARMER AND VERY HARD TO RESIST. WHEN I CALLED HIM ON BEING A SCAMMER HE SUDDENLY GAVE ME THE NAME VALENTINE, AND SHOWED ME SOME PAGE FROM FACEBOOK, WHICH BY THE FOLLOWING DAY WAS NO LONGER AVAILABLE TO VIEW. HE WOULD TELL ME HE WAS CRYING ALL THE TIME WHEN I WOULD UPSET HIM OR NOT TRUST HIM. I HAVE SEVERAL DIFFERENT PHONE NUMBERS FOR HIM THE LATEST IS 2348181070560, I ALSO HAVE, 447024016846. HIS EMAIL HE USED WAS [email protected] I REALLY THINK IT IS THE SAME MAN. HE ALSO SAID HE LIVED IN THE UK AND THAT HE WAS ITALIAN BUT WHEN U HEARD HIS ACCENT U KNEW HE WAS FROM NIGERIA. HE SAID HE WORKED IN THE OIL INDUSTRY. I CHATTED AND SPOKE WITH THIS MAN FOR 10 MONTHS. HE ASKED ME TO HELP HIM TO COME SEE ME BY SENDING HIM MONEY WESTERN UNION, BUT OF COURSE I SAID NO. THIS MADE HIM VERY ANGRY AND HE WOULD BE QUIET OR GO OFFLINE ON ME. HE IS A TRUE SCAMMER AND U MUST BEWARE. AGAIN I AM SO SORRY FOR YOUR PAIN. YOU WILL FIND A GOOD MAN SOON. FONDLY, HARLEYGIRL6142
