Update:
This scammer emailed me, once again, thinking he could talk himself out of the situation he has created. When that didn't work (I told him he needed to provide a phone number or proof that he was real), he reverted to rather pathetic veiled threats. Unfortunately, I don't take to kindly to threats.
So I will reiterate one more time:
This scammer claims to be in New York.
He is sending his emails from Ghana. Ghana is also one of the top 3 locations for romance scammers, and it is clearly nowhere near the claimed location of New York. His location has been captured by both the original poster and myself, when he emailed me.
The thread remains, period.
Edit to add: The scammer just can't seem to understand that he is not as skilled as he thinks he is. He will likely try to come back under a new name, and once again challenge this thread or badmouth scamwarners. It will just be another example of what kind of sleaze we are dealing with.
