Hello Beautiful

Let me start by saying I'm so glad you responded back and I really like your short email. I was actually looking forward to an e-mail from you and there it was when I checked my message. It's such a beautiful feeling that got into me when I got your message, it also gives me great joy to even want to know you the more...Oh God, I'm dying by that wonderful smile you've brought at my face. I was more than excited to read from you as I'm also hopeful and thankful for this friendship between You & I.

I'm 6ft 1inch, 88kg 193lbs, athletic, adventurous, very romantic and I am a highly physique type of person. I like the seemingly unending smiles that I put on people's face. As stated in my profile, I enjoy all kinds of music. From the oldies, R&B, Blues, country music, soul, jazz, country gospel to of course my favorite 70's music. I'm pretty open to all kinds of activities. I like playing golf, reading, swimming, playing tennis, traveling, shopping, cooking. I enjoy playing pool if I can find someone who does not mind trying it out with me. I like to watch movies, plays, just go out and have a good time with someone who enjoys my company. I love to laugh and never mind being teased as long as it is good nature. I tease my friends but would never be cruel to anyone. Most people describe me as sweet and very quiet. I'm quiet until you get to know me. I consider myself to be very laid back, loving, patient person. I am a very loyal friend, and one woman man. I am somewhat private and only have a few selected loyal friends around me. What matters to me the most is: I do not want to spend the rest of my life alone.. I live alone, I take care of myself and I know that I would make the right woman very happy. So, many things makes me smile, lot of the simplicities of life like....each day I wake up, taking long walks along the ocean, seeing a sun set or rise, spending time with people I love, laughter, God and his love for me, and for all of us.

I am searching for a woman who is serious about a relationship potentially leading to marriage. The woman I am looking to share my life with should be intelligent, open-minded, happy, and hold qualities of loyalty, integrity and honesty. I want someone who is fun-loving, considerate and caring. Physical attraction is important also as is romance. I do not want "the perfect woman" but am looking for my perfect woman who will be my companion through a life that we can share together whatever it throws at us. INTELLIGENT AND DOWN TO EARTH...I am really looking to find my soul mate, a woman who's romantic and make me feel like I am the only one around. I am looking for that person who is willing to give his time and energy into getting to know the real me, and I will definitely return that time...like I said, I am old style romantic, very much like candlelight dinners. I am loving, caring and loyal towards my partner. If given the chance I like to escape every once in a while and just take weekend trips with someone who is ready to share their life with me. I know it's not easy to find that person and I don't except her to drop everything in her life that would be unfair. I enjoy a woman who has a good sense of humor and at the same time knows when to take things serious.. You have caught my eye and I want to dance your dance. Will you give me the chance to see how compatible we could be ? Promise me, that you will get to know me, learn all that you can and always be honest with me. I will indeed do the same....you appear to be very genuine !

Now, to tell you a little about myself.. More about me in the work sector, I'm into Oil and Gas, I'm talking about Deepwater exploration and discoveries, field development (offshore oil and gas development) and production, drilling, delivery of products, tanker loading and unloading, ancillary and support operations. Also seismic activities and onshore operation ( covered under, for example, the Petroleum Refining or the onshore Oil and Gas Development). I have actually worked with Chevron oil Company for several years and raised to a position of Senior Energy Consultant (international staff and that makes me a frequent travel back in the days) , I left when I was earning lower than my expertise. I am now self employed and I work with different oil companies as a consultant, which is so good for me. At the moment, there's a contract that I have been bidding on for couple of months now...But it seems everything is just about to come to me or someone else...Whoever gets it anyway... I have been in this field for 15years, so , you can imagine how passionate my job is to me.

I have few questions to ask you and I hope you answer then sincerely.. Have you found anybody on this dating site ? Do you belong to any other sites ? How long have you been on here ? Please, feel free to ask me any question, I will answer it honestly.... I am not a game player and will tell you like it is. Yes, sex is great.. but that's not a relationship to me, it has to be meaningful for me. Wow ! I just noticed I had written so much, hope you are not bored of reading before you get here.. I really have to stop now and let you digest this LOL.. if I don't, what would I write in my subsequent emails to you.. I still have a lot to share with you most importantly my past relationship.

Hope to hear from you soon.
Mark

Administrator note:
This post was made by the scammer himself, who was kind enough to stop by and pay us a visit. He apparently believed that by hiding behind a proxy, he could escape detection. As you can see from the profiles posted above, this scammer can't even decide what country he is pretending to be in! We have left this post intact to show you the lengths to which a scammer will go in his attempts to steal money from innocent people.


Please kindly remove all there post ASAP as this is defamation and i ma going to report this website and it administrator if they do not do so Thank you

WELL SINCE YOU HAVE DECIDED NOT TO HEED MY WARNING , FOR A START I HAVE REPORTED ALL OF YOU RUBBISH TO Internet Crime Complaint Center AND ALSO TO MY LOCAL POLICE STATION ABOUT YOUR WEBSITE .. AND THERE IS MORE TO COME .. I WONDER WHAT SORT OF WEBSITE YOU ARE OPERATING ..YOU ARE NOT EVEN BOLD ENOUGH TO LEAVE YOU CONTACT INFORMATION ANY WHERE IF YOU KNOW YOU ARE DOING THE RIGHT THING ....

Silly scammer!
I'm sure the folks at IC3 are very willing to meet you, considering the fact that you are sitting in Nigeria trying to steal innocent people's money. They would probably be willing to take you into custody, too.

Once again, for the sake of readers of this topic--the user who signed up under the name "Markie" is actually the scammer himself, who is anxious to stop the reports about him as a scammer. This means that he either has lost, or is afraid of losing, one or more victims because of the report, and it means that the report here is doing exactly what it should. He is either egotistical or stupid enough to think that he can fool us (as if his we wouldn't recognize the poor English or the fact that he just visited our forum from Nigeria), or he hopes he can intimidate us.

Obviously he doesn't understand who we are or why we are here.

This guy actually was trying to get me at the time that he was outed on here. He did send me an address, which seems to have gotten deleted unfortunately. It was to a guy called Femi in Nigeria - "Mark's" driver. He was trying to say he was on an oil rig, slept at a hotel, taken there by his driver, Femi. The rig was on the border of Bennin and Nigeria. He had split from his gf 3 years ago when he walked in on her and his best mate...etc, etc, etc.

I wouldn't say DEFINITELY do not meet anyone off the net...what I would say is don't let the scent of roses and romance blind you to common sense. I checked him out and got sent to this site. That wouldn't work every time, but don't let yourself be conned by a smooth-talker ever!

And soldiers? As soon as any guy says he is a soldier, my warning bells go off. My latest baeu (not) is a guy calling himself DAVID ROYCE, e-mail address [email protected]. Poor guy is a widower, is a bomb disposal expert, (but he can't talk about that) has no other family and is desperate for love. Even if it is all true he moves way to fast for me. And why would a guy from Bolton, UK speak in fractured english and work for the USA?

Like I said, roses and romance....

Be careful out there! :wink:
