Information on romance scams and scammers.

Tom messanged me from Facebook in early August. within a couple of weeks, he was saying he loves me.
He had told me he had a daughter who traveled to Nigeria with her grandmother to meet realitives. Her grandmother is Africian, and daughter/s mom is Africian American. Tom's wife has passed due to lung cancer. his mother in law Mary Williams had guardianship over daughter. With in 2 months this daughter had been robbed, beaten and raped. He would always say he was sitting with tears running down his face. He said his money was frozen and would I send over money for Dr. Steve at people Hospital in Lagos Nigeria. What a fool I was, terrible to be lonely. I was also told he would be retiring in a couple of months and he would move to KY. as he had always lived in TX.
He told me he is a Warrent Officer, highly trained. He also told me his father James Wedel had been a marine and had worked in London in the diamond and gold business. Before his father passed away, he had put his business up for sale and placed large quanities on money in a securities company Credit Bond Finance and Security. No. 1 Canada Sq. Canary Wharf E14. London. I googled this and there were many articles stating SCAM! The copy of the certificate of Deposit indicated the item they held was a family treasure Box ( worth 45.8 million dollars) He told me if I would forward 10,000 a courier would deliver the box to my door. I told him I could not help him. Still he told me how much he loved me...it was interesting that several times the style of his writing would change, using words as dat who dat..He was to retire Dec. 31. He did not contact me for 4 days, then when he did he said he was out in the field. Then he started asking for $500.00 to be sent to his mother in law friends to pay for plane ticket to London. I asked why he did not leave on military plane and he said London was closer where he was and he would pick up his daughter and mother in law. The next morning I get an email stating he had caught a ride to the city...where is city in Afghan? to meet a friend who would loan him the money. The dialict of Africian become more clear in his writing. He said he had called me and some man answered the phone. well he did not call me. What a blessing too, as I would have probably sent him the money. I checked his email and it went to a 22 yr old in DE. [email protected] you can still find him on myspace under wedel tom wedel. he is very handsome and I fell deeply. I also kept the addesses of who I sent westerunion money too. A pic of a girl who is suppose to be is daughter Diane. I wrote to her also, [email protected]

Now i would like to contact the real Tom Wedel and let him know his profile has been scammed! there are many in the US with his name.

I have been trying to download Wedel's picture. I am not sure if Tom is his name, this is the name the scammer used. He is on myspace please if someone knows how to pull this picture and post it, please so no one else will fall for this scammer. I am still trying to locate this soldier, to let him know someone is using his picture, not sure now if the profile is his or made up. I don't even know if this soldier is from TX. There are over 20 Tom Wedel across the USA.

Your name repeats over and over in my mind Kathy Kathy Kathy and on and on Each day my feelings grows stronger for you and I know for a fact that my feelings will never fade. These miles between us won't fade away but I know that our heart will keep us together. It's so weird for us to be so far away from each other but yet so close.
I send to you across the miles, my tender love, my warm embrace, and my most passionate kiss.

You take my breath away with the feelings you have for me and I have for you. I look forward to seeing you in KY i will drive to your apartment i swear i promise and give you a big hug or maybe a kiss would be great LOL. I know that our feelings will only grow with each passing day. Your happiness makes me feel whole and happy too. I need to know that you are okay.

this is the post that he has on myspace:


Things Happen That You Can't Stop, But That's No Reason To Shut Out The World. There's A Purpose For The Good And The Bad. You Don't Need To Change For Anyone. If They Liked You In The First Place Why Do They Want You To Change; So They Can Make You Weak? Nothing In The World Is Perfect, But Someone May Be Perfect For You. Everyone Has A Soul Mate, A Purpose, A Different Outlook On Things, And A So Much More. Life Is Hard Get Used To It; If You Can't Then Stick A Straw In Your Juice Box And Suck It Up!
