I would like to share this information of a scammer so that everyone could be aware.

I am positive that I am being scammed..he introduced himself using the facebook as Col. Scott Hillary, a US Army currently in Afghanistan

Here is his first introduction...from Scott Hillary

as time goes on..he asked me for my cellphone to be registered to the satellite phone so we could make a call ..from Scott Hillary

thanks for the cell phone number... but like i have said you need to get your cell phone registered to my satellite phone here so we can both call and send sms to my satellite phone... it means you simple have you cell phone registered before we can both make calls ... and as soon as the registration is done we both start making free calls without payment.... the only payment that have to be made is for the cell phone registration


this time he was giving me the first instruction on how to register the sat phone...message from Scott Hillary..

yeah... i think so ... and my sat phone number is 02111983.... all you have to do is send a mail to the sat phone company and inform them that you would want to get your cell phone registered and connected to my sat phone


when I asked him about why is there a need to register to satellite phone - this was his reply (from Scott Hillary)

Welcome charmed,

As you stated, this is a scam. There is no doubt about that.

I am interested in the satphoneuplink.com domain--I can't research it right now, but it is very likely that it is a fake, created by the scammers to make them look more realistic--in which case our site killers will be very interested. Did you receive any emails from an address at satphoneuplink.com? If so, can you post them here, including headers (remove your email address first)? That will help our site killers to get it killed if appropriate.

The site satphoneuplink.com apears to be a copy of a legitimate site. I'll get it to the site killers :D
