Information on romance scams and scammers.

Well I have been talking with this "girl" for a little over a month now.She says shes a communications sargeant in the Army stationed in well either Afghanistan or Syria. Thats pretty strange cause 1st time talked with her she was in Afghanistan,2nd day talked with her an she was in Syria.So that what got me to wondering about her. So after the 3rd or 4th time talking with her I did a readnotify an the results from that were interesting.She would just reply an well the email was opened in Union City California,then sent on to some one in Oregon,then back to me. So ok I also have a IM checker I use to see when contacts are online or invisible,well she wes,is invisible 85% of the time,which also sent up red flags. After using readnotify I asked her about the results an told her some one anomyous had sent that to me well she didnt really have much to say did seem upset though.Then things were good for awhile til the other day.It was her b-day and she seemed agaitated about something but wouldnt say what,next morning shes on and says theres a problem anI asked her what it was and she says youb been tracking me,which I havent been since the 1st time,so anyway I got things smoothed over from that for a minute an sent her a email and this is the response I got from her.
Well am I never knew about your mom, am sorry to hear that, its all written on you that you never want to trust any one and am not forcing you, the solution for me not to be sent to Syria all depend on if you will do what my commander has advised me to act on for me to be out of here, you need money to do a lot of things and you never want to sacrifice bring me home to help you. I know your condition of things there and there is nothing I can do while am here. If you think about what you want then you will help me out getting out of here. You have to request for my leave out of here as my fiancé. That's what you have to do and once its approved then I can be out of here and all your doubt will be clear to you. Mind you if you can't help me out here, then I will have what ever I face as my destiny.
Now this person has supposedly been in the army for 6 years,is supposedly widowed,an d has 2 kids a girl thats 9 an a boy thats 4. Seems kinda strange to me that someone like that wouldnt be in the Army and leave their 2 kids behind either.She says she cant use the phone with out her "commanders approval,cant use Skype,an she did have a cam one day which she said she had to keep hidden from her "commander or would face repercussions from him.She aslo seems to be at her commanders beck an call call 24/7,which to me aslo seems odd. There are alot of addities I noticed an asked her about but you know the game no answers to the questions. Also I told her that for some one being in the Army for 6 years she didnt seem to know much about Army rules an regs,and protocol.
So my question now is where can I find some thing concerning this leave shes wanting an send it to her? She has told me she is coming back on the 20th of Sept,an will be getting out of military permantly then,so again this is add that she would need my help,and she hasnt supplied me with any info,such as unit name and number,commanders name,etc. From what I gather this is something that she has to do on her own correct?

Ok I copied a couple of the things its says about the leave thing an sent it to her,her response so far isnt to good. Will keep you informed as to what shes saying. so far is saying I dont trust her an i asked her if was going to have to be any payment involved an she said would have to wai until I hear back from them.

What "she" (really "he") says is irrelevant now. It doesn't matter if there is "no payment involved." It is already a proven scam several times over.

Any one of these points alone would be enough to make it 100% scam.

-There is not, and will never be a policy requiring people from outside the military request leave for people in the military. It goes against the basic principles of the military's hierarchy. People from outside the military CANNOT request leave (or retirement) for people in the military. Ever. Soldiers HAVE TO make these requests for themselves, and an civilian they plan to visit will have absolutely no part in the process.

[email protected] is a free email address, opened by anyone, with absolutely no connection to the US government or any branch of the military.

-The English in "her" letters is atrocious, and the mistakes are clearly African.

"She" is an African scammer, not a US soldier. The scammer is using stolen photos of a woman totally unconnected to him. The real person behind the emails is a young black male.

Please post the email address this scammer was using, and the early letters "she" sent, as these will most likely be scripts that the scammer will use again, even after changing names. You can also post photos using the instructions in my signature.

Ok yep you are so right!! I am going to post the reply from the "agency " thats supposedly processing her "leave" Her email thats hes is using is [email protected] as far as 1st letters go there isnt any the reply or 2 that she sent was copied and pasted an then sent to me as her response. Yhe only pic have of her is her avatar she uses on her/his IM. I just wanted her to send me this thing for her"leave so could see what it was about,then post it here so you would actually be able to see what they look like. well the format its in wont let me copy an paste it,sorry I have used spokeo to see what they have on this thing,but ya know Im beginning not to like spokeo much because the info get seems to be some what limited. Well am not sure what to do with the mugu now,its going to be wanting me to send this thing to it,an it does say that there are fees involved that of course I would have to pay. I will go back to the site that you gave with the protocols an see if there is something there I can send along to it,then I will delete an block it from further communications.

It seems the only way i can get this form to you is by email,it wont let me copy or paste it. Just thought you would like to see what the actual form they use is like. I did find the thing that says that there are no fees or any such thing involved with obtaining a leave an sent that along to it,am waiting for the response ,which Im sure will get ugly beforeI block this thing. It has been fun an interesting dealing with it though. Another funny thing after I got finished taliking with it earlier today it said it was very tird and going to sleep,but went to invisible mode,lol I will keep you posted as to what happens next.

Well I have been sitting here thinking ,alot really. I am thinking that perhaps I shouldnt be doing this catch a scammer thing.IDK. I thought at 1st it would be interesting to find an try and figure these crooked basturds out.But the sad fact of the matter is I guess Im just to much of a romantic,or maybe its because of the things that have happened to me in past relationships.You see the thing is once these things start telling me how much they would care for me an love me an all that stuff,well it dosent take long for my heart an my feeling to want to beleive them,an they make it so damn easy!! The thing with this she/it is that it managed to touch me in a way that no one has been able to for many many years,an now well it hurts.I know that God isnt going to have a place for these scumbag muthe uckers,an they have no shame. I would like to see this thing suffer immeasureburly.This one has to be stopped some how,cause its going to have another victim or victims,an more than likely already has them.

Ohhh Boy that thing is really pissd now!! I sent the "leave" thing to it with some of the stuff it hadsaid on the site with the military stuff an ohhhh man.Well here is its reply.
Omg! What kind of a man are you, fuck you are just demn difficult. For the fact that they respond back meaning the leave will be approved you still fuck talk like you hate me, that you will never act like a man who cares about the person he claim to love. No I know you are just playing games with me hell FUCK OFF my life if you can't never be responsibly in you fucking life. Do you know what you fuck will gain from me? Is this you show love and care? People like you make all this fucking Ladies hurt you and leave you to face shit, you are proving to me right now you are not worth being the head of a family. In any condition a head of a family, talk good and think on a possible solution to any problem but yours is fucking different, I just got back from my commander and got to tell me the Stamp and pass card is a due to pay for when its and immediate leave like this. HEY if you don't want me alive then leave me ALONE and hold you fucking money. Money is what you love that you can not sacrifice not my love. After all you will want me to help you spend my money on you right. BULLSHIT

Now that is some of the personality of the actual scammer showing through. He is no longer using his script, and even though he is still pretending to be his character, but you can see what his real attitude and language are like. This response is an interesting (and sad) feature of many of these scammers--they are the ones who are lying and stealing, but they frequently get angry at their victims when they don't pay.

As angry as he is, though, he writes it as the character in hopes that you might still believe him, and be guilted into sending money.

Her email is [email protected] by the name of Tammy Nelson,I got some pics of her off another site an am posting them here. well was going to but again wont let me copy an paste them from my pics I have saved,so dont know how to do that. Anyway I called its hand on the scam today.I didnt get any response at all.It just shut up wouldnt say a thing.So I told it goodbye,it was nice knowing it but shouldnt have tryed pulling me on that scam.Maybe it was the word scam an all ya dont think it got scared do you? I dont.Anyway Told it I would no longer be bothering it deleted an put on ignore list.so am done with this one.Kinda wish I knew about 100 people or so That I could get just to blow up its IM.Would also be a hoot if had some Military stationary on my computer I would send a letter from say a high ranking Army Officer that dont exist and tell them That we know their game an should cease an desiist from their actions or face the wrath of the real American Army,That would be a hoot.But anyway on to the next one. Gotta hate thing going on for scammers!!
