Welcome to ScamWarners bishop6, you are correct the scammer has chosen a name to use in his scams. It is not the name of the person who scammed you. I hope you didn't lose money to the scammer.

Bubbles, former Scamwarners moderator.

Rest in Peace 24 June 2015.

Timothy is usong a different email and he has different people I will share all the emails that are being used if anybody needs them I was scammed out of a lot of money I feel so stupid but I have email addreses if u need them
by sweet_caroline Fri Feb 22, 2013 12:38 am
I knew he was too good to be true, he was just too perfect, too nice.

I feel so stupid. good thing i haven't shelled out any money yet, only emotionally and the time I spent chatting with him.

I hope somebody catches him.

I'm from the Philippines by the way, and before you think anything derogatory about the Filipinas let me assure you that I have never scammed anyone nor asked for money. I have a job and it just doesn't feel right asking money from strangers.
I guess no more dating sites for me. If its not scam then there are pedo's we have to watch out for and I have 3 little girls to worry about.

by the way here's how i found out there was something wrong about him - he sent me a pic and underneath it says " Sent from my Blackberry smartphone provided by Airtel Nigeria.

I mean if he was based in Iraq why would he get a phone provider from Nigeria? :evil:

and for an American I speak better English than him :laugh-s:

Hello Caroline. I found your scammer with the same cut and paste rubbish here.
No it isn't a typo with all that number of mistakes. He stole it off a female profile because he thought it looked good. However he is a Nigerian criminal who is barely literate and doesn't have any idea of what he posts. However it should have been a major red flag. What country did he say he was serving in? MAJOR OOPS! but not educating scammers with the answer. It shows the importance of reading a profile and trusting the text is as wrote. Suspicion would have produced proof of a scam had it been entered to a search. Some Thinking it through is needed also. So for those who lost money for which I am sorry, the signs were all there and in place that this person is a criminal and a liar. Any profile using those photos will be a fake.

Now the profile name resolves , after creativity, into an emaul address that uses the stolen photo of Sgt Timothy Nein as an avatar so we are bang on the money here. Remember we saw it first on Scamwarners and it hasn't been listed before .

Funny he doesn't mention the secret place where one photo is taken.
An awesome place I've visited:
Asia, Europe, North America, and some part of USA


He is Patrick11 on an unavailable site in Chinese, using the Mword picture

Generally figuring out a scam use this principle: "If it's too good to be true, its NOT true at all."

And you're right, he is barely literate, I mean I'm only a high school graduate but when I read his messages it hurts my eyes :lol:
He doesn't know I'm on to him though. So what should I do now?

By the way, is there any possibility this guy could be from Spain?

I met him on Feb. 14 then on Feb 18 I was notified by Google that they prevented a suspicious sign in to my gmail acnt.

Someone recently tried to use an application to sign in to your Google
Account - [email protected]. We prevented the sign-in attempt in case
this was a hijacker trying to access your account. Please review the
details of the sign-in attempt:

Don't tell scammer anything just vanish. Scammers are a territiorial lot so that's unlikely to be organisational. They would happily murder if it got more money but they may sell their email lists. More likely it's proxy use.
Sometimes you can tell a proxy from search.I have a "sortof" rule that is that more than 100 hits is of concern. A normal search would give 97 as a good figure. It gives 80 so it's unlikely to be proxy. However in view of what you say it would look as if you were hit by a dictionary attacker that runs through long lists of possible password words automatically. Such compromised email acounts are then used to send out masses of spam, sites login to place spam etc. The idea is that this circumvents automatic spam blockers when used with a proxy that is not blacklisted.

I find it weird that after posting here yesterday Sgt.Nein didn't contact me all afternoon yesterday. We used to chat for hours all day. Then he logged in last night but he seemed hesitant, no more endearments

I thought maybe I should scam a scammer he definitely deserves it :evil:

So I said Sorry Hon I just woke up. He then told me he was just about to go to his bunk and would I be online in 4 hours time coz he has something "important" to tell me
I think this is the part where he'll hit me up for cash..............

It's already 10:45am here and still no sign of him. So it is possible that he knows this site?

Thankyou for publishing the report caroline. It could be simply a coincidence the thieving trickster did not appear online in the afternoon? Or it could have been spooked. And yes, as sure as the sun will rise tomorrow morning, the tosser will hit you with a money request. Had you have sent money it would have been through one of the wire services and you would have kissed it goodbye because it would not be seen again.
Yes it is possible this low-life knows of the site. Periodically scammers do drop by and it's possible it's seen the report. But there's also an excellent chance of that not happening. I refuse to call a scammer a man because real men, would never conduct such bad practices.
