Has anyone heard of [email protected]

I'm worried my friend is getting scammed by a romance scammer. Has anyone dealt with this person. He says he is an widowed Australian film maker who is currently "stuck in England" because his finances have fallen thru. He has called my friend from an international phone and she has returned calls to him using an international ph # but when I traced his ip address it seems to have originated in the US. Can anyone help?

Please tell your friend that this is a scammer of the worst kind. This one had me hook, line and sinker. He will do or say anything to separate you from your friend and will tell her their relationship is more important than your friendship. Please beg her to cease all contact with [email protected] before she loses everything she owns, and possibly more. This one is pure poison.

If this scammer is claiming to be in the UK, it is highly likely that he is using a phone number starting with 070 or +4470
This looks like the start of a UK mobile number but you will never find a zero after the first seven in a UK phone number. Any number starting with 070 or +4470 is an anonymous redirect number that can be directed to almost anywhere in the world.
