Dennis contacted me on 4ppl.com. This was his initial message:
Aside from the problems with English grammar (not problems usually seen in Americans who are simply sloppy in their grammar), this shows several signs of a scammer.
1 – He uses the term “God fearing.” This is common among scammers, as they seem to feel that Western people trust more when they think they are dealing with someone devout.
2 – He is very hit-and-miss with capitalization and punctuation. Again, this is not a definite sign of a scammer, but it is something to look out for.
3 – His email address – geffjamm – sounds like he might be using it somewhere else with a different name. A search of the name didn’t bring up anything incriminating – yet. He may have recently created this email address.
Here is his online profile:
Notice that the “About me” and “About you” are identical. Also, he says “I will” where it is more appropriate to say “I would.”
