Rose Wood .... I have a bad feeling about this

I seem to be a magnet for these
Rose contacted me on a popular dating site saying Inwas her type of guys and she wanted to chat on email or MSN via email. Email address was given as [email protected]. Included in the post were pics of an attractive woman in a home setting. On the dating site Rose stated she lived in Tasmania.

I replied via email asking for more information. I did not send any pics so the first sentance of the reply set my alert to high. Here is Rose's email let me know what you think scam or not ?

Dear

Thanks for your email i will tell you more about myself because i cant wait to get to know what behind your great smile, I am independent and free-spirited. I'd like to say that I'm simple to understand but according to most everyone I know, I'm a complex individual.Am in Malaysia right now for work and i will be back to Australia soon but depend on my JOB but we can meet before i finish my contract down here....I work as a private investigator ( Detective ) for British, hope you know what i mean right ?
 
I love to travel, love practicing foreign languages, meeting new people, very into outdoor sports, I love reading and writing, drawing and painting, music and movies (especially the stuff that came out prior to the 1960's). I'm very honest and blunt, like to joke, I'm very adventurous and am a bit of an adrenaline junkie, I'm spontaneous and don't really like to make plans unless it's really necessary, I'm a romantic.... I don't take shit from anyone, am very driven, and I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty.
 
However, I love flowers, baking cookies, jump at any chance to dress up, enjoy jazz lounges, love curling up in a warm blanket with some chocolate, a glass of wine and a good movie, like fluffy slippers, still have my childhood teddy bear, am health-conscious, and write poetry on a regular basis.
 
I do not gossip and try to go by the saying "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all". I'm not a very dramatic, high-maintenence person... I don't play games, and I respect people for who they are and don't try to change people. If I can't appreciate you for everything you are, I don't need to be talking to you,I 'm pretty easy going. I'm intellectual, laid back, high energetic, and very easy to get along with. I love making people laugh and I have a very witty sense of humor. I would like to meet someone friendly and interesting, but am basically looking for a new experience. . Recently Single Looking for Good Man Looking for the perfect male.
 
So you live alone at the moment right ? kindly tell me more about yourself too and the type of woman you are looking for to spend the rest of your life with ok? Attached is more pictures of me and let me know if you like what you see and if you still want to continue but dont worry about age difference i believe its just a number what matter most is maturity and level of understanding.
 
Awaiting your reply
 
Hugs
Rose


The pics were of an attractive woman, didn't raise any flags on google image search, seemed to me as almost plausable ...but really it doesn't add up why an attractive woman would be throwing herself at a guy without any contact or knowledge of what he is like. Right ?

Unless she's a Palawa (and there are no full-blooded Palawa anymore), she didn't grow up in Tasmania. Her English shows traits of not having grown up in any major English-speaking country. I don't know what the English of a Palawa would be like, but a couple of traits are consistent with West African English.

Can you post the headers? That would probably show for sure where she is.

Absolutely no doubt it's a scammer.

As VX said, the English is consistent with West African. This statement also makes no sense:

I work as a private investigator ( Detective ) for British, hope you know what i mean right

I don't know if the photos are the same, but this profile eliminates all doubt.

Description:
I am independent and free-spirited. I'd like to say that I'm simple to understand but according to most everyone I know, I'm a complex individual. I'm an artist and see the world very differently than your average person. I'm extremely open-minded and non-judgemental (for the most part)... I accept just about anyone and will do anything in my power to help those who need it.
I'm a very "private" person and although I am quite typically an outgoing, open book, my quiet "ME time" is sacred. I don't like clingly, nosey, possessive people. I really don't mix well with those who feel that they need to ask a lot of questions, drilling new prospective friends as if they were locked in an interrogation unit.
I love to travel, love practicing foreign languages, meeting new people, very into outdoor sports, I'm a motorcycle and motorsports maniac, I love reading and writing, drawing and painting, music and movies (especially the stuff that came out prior to the 1960's).
I'm very honest and blunt, like to joke, I'm very adventurous and am a bit of an adrenaline junkie, I'm spontaneous and don't really like to make plans unless it's really necessary, I'm a romantic.... I don't take sh** from anyone, am very driven, and I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty.
I work with wolfdogs and captive-bred wolves, enjoy hunting and fishing, I'm a bartender and can drink beer during a football game and kick it with the guys, I drive a tundra truck, I LOVE shooting, and my favorite pair of shoes are my cowboy boots.
However, I love flowers, baking cookies, jump at any chance to dress up, enjoy jazz lounges, love curling up in a warm blanket with some chocolate, a glass of wine and a good movie, like fluffy slippers, still have my childhood teddy bear, am health-conscious, and write poetry on a regular basis.
I do not gossip and try to go by the saying "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all". I'm not a very dramatic, high-maintenence person... I don't play games, and I respect people for who they are and don't try to change people. If I can't appreciate you for everything you are, I don't need to be talking to you.

Relationship I am Seeking

I'm Seeking:
Men

For:
Marriage, Long-Term Relationship, Fun, Friendship

Description:
I'm looking for a man who will treat me right and won't take me for granted. An ambitious man who dreams and works hard to reach his goals. A sweet, caring, considerate man who keeps his word when he gives it. I like a strong (both physically and mentally) man who is intelligent, and passionate. Someone who is not out to change me or break me. I'm really just looking for a good, honest man - regardless of how much money he makes, if he is a good man with a good heart, money doesn't really matter. Wealthy men simply tend to be well-traveled, cultured, well-mannered, intelligent, and driven... all aspects which I greatly appreciate.
