Information on romance scams and scammers.
by began steele Sun Jun 23, 2013 6:42 am
This scammer has a slightly different con going on. He works in Facebook and has infiltrated a group, mainly of scam victims. His fake romantic attention is towards many of them, but he is prepared to meet them and, ultimately, remove their money. It is a plane ticket scam and of course as always, Western Union Transfer always crops up. He is a fake student who is working as a scammer.
Victim is From Denmark and is 69 years old.
The story is, that he and i has been lovers from summer 2012. I went to visit him october 2012 where we had a small vacation together.
Everything was fine until Valentines day where i found out he was involved with another woman,
I told him i wouldn't have a man who lied to me and i wouldn't share him with another woman, so i broke up with him.
Then he contacted me again on march 29 2013.

Edited chat.
[29-03-2013 10:54:00] xxx: yes
[29-03-2013 10:54:11] xxx: i can see you
[29-03-2013 10:54:24] joshua quaye-larbi: ok
[29-03-2013 10:54:32] joshua quaye-larbi: how are u
[29-03-2013 10:54:44] xxx: i told you on the phone
[29-03-2013 10:54:49] joshua quaye-larbi: yes

[29-03-2013 10:55:46] xxx: yes since Lydia wrote all her love comment on your profile on valentines evening
[29-03-2013 10:57:25] joshua quaye-larbi: yes..but i took it no serious because i was watching who ever writes on my walls and i do not comment..because i deleted many people the other time and Nina and others were critizing me
[29-03-2013 10:59:29] joshua quaye-larbi: but i know that i have been thinking alot these days to get my things through so that i can come to you...because we have have already made that arrangements already and no one can take me because i have you already therefore i see some people funny when they are writing these words and so forth,,,

Other parts are about money. The victim visited the scammer in Italy it seems.
[29-03-2013 11:38:08] joshua quaye-larbi: yes..but i am to write the language exams on the 20th april and i am to submit my document all by 1 pm this very afternoon..baby i have just recieved the letter yesteday evening and i am to pay 280 euros this afternoon baby...because its the deadline--but i do not have that money now baby and its very important so that after the examination i can go wgereever i can go baby
[29-03-2013 11:41:37] xxxx: that is a lot of money you need, but everything has closed here because of the easter
[29-03-2013 11:43:25] joshua quaye-larbi: i can have money on the 15th of next month...but i need to submit this today...can you pls help me with that ..see if the offices are there before 12.noon

[29-03-2013 11:51:50] joshua quaye-larbi: ok...anyway..june and july is not far from april...i can come after your vacation
[29-03-2013 11:52:35] xxxx: yes it's only 2 month, maybe you can have the test within that periode
[29-03-2013 11:52:50] joshua quaye-larbi: yes..baby
[29-03-2013 11:53:33] joshua quaye-larbi: but dont u have withdrawal card to the bank..
[29-03-2013 11:55:59] xxxxx: the bank i have, have no money besides danish in the automat, so i have to order euro , they don't have cash in the bank anymore, but western union is the same as our post office, and they have closed now
[29-03-2013 11:56:26] xxxx: because of the easter
[29-03-2013 11:58:22] joshua quaye-larbi: ok..i have the card but no money on it..but i think all the banks and the offices will close after today....i think the western unions are there because today bpeople will be sending money abroad and to the other parts of the world..i think they are there to day...i need to do these

There is more and all about getting his hands on the money.
][01-04-2013 15:39:20] joshua quaye-larbi: just send the mtcn numbers to me by then i might be nearer to the police headquarters
[01-04-2013 15:39:31] joshua quaye-larbi: so that i can pay it
[01-04-2013 15:39:50] xxx: i will send it on the phone as soon as i have it
[01-04-2013 15:40:13] joshua quaye-larbi: right..its 280 euros
01-04-2013 15:48:40] xxx: ok, baby...and will you do the things i asked you too on favebook ?

Final extract from the information. The victim realises she has been scammed.
[02-04-2013 21:58:43] joshua quaye-larbi: hello baby..i have recieved the money...thank u very much,,,but the internet is very bad...
[05-04-2013 22:01:45] joshua quaye-larbi: 2 or 3 days after the exams i will be there..

After i paid the money we only spoke together april 9 and 14. He should come to me april 22.

IM Apr 14, 2013 4:08:52 PM [email protected]: how are u doing?
3:40:55 PM xxxx: where have you been.....i am missing you 3:41:59 PM [email protected]: me too baby..my everything is locked on the computer....and its running very very slowly baby
3:42:56 PM xxx: you haven't been on skype for many days
3:43:49 PM [email protected]: yes...i dont know..my computer is running very slowly ...for which i cannot do anything
3:43:58 PM [email protected]: my coming is also near
3:44:31 PM bxxx: yes only one week away
[email protected]: i love u baby
4:07:20 PM xxxx: i love you too baby, i have missed so much talking to you all these days...it was like you had forgotten me
4:08:03 PM [email protected]: NOOOOOOOO..baby

This was the last time i talked to him. After that he ignored me even when we were online at the same time.
Do i have to tell that he didn't come to Denmark. I was just part of his game til i had paid the money, and i was stupid enough to believe him.
This is the second time i got scammed. The difference from the first time is that he is not a fake person.

Hi friends! I found something interesting about Steve Crabys an Admin of an anti-scam Group on FB (!)
:shock:

This info corroborates, that he is a FAKE person in spite of representations of some Group members. Just look at some of his Profiles again… we can find amusing facts:

1. His FB Profile Quaye-larbi Joshua


Quaye-larbi Joshua
https://www.facebook.com/quayelarbi.joshua

Image


Image

Profile information:

Studied at UNIVERSITA DI SYRACUSSA (!) :lol:
Past: Apam Secondary School
Lives in Bologna, Italy

UNIVERSITA DI SYRACUSSA

The name of the University is INCORRECT!

It should be: Università di Syracuse (It)
Syracuse University (En)


So he doesn’t know what is the correct name of the University he graduated from… :laugh-s:

FB automatically made this Page below, using his incorrect Data:

UNIVERSITA DI SYRACUSSA

https://www.facebook.com/pages/UNIVERSI ... 8147147091

Image


We can see ONLY Joshua is a graduate of this University and NOBODY ELSE! :shock: :laugh-s:


2. His FB Profile Steve Crabys

No reason to refute the fact, that Profile of the macho fireball 2011 was created just by Steve Crabys/ Quaye-larbi Joshua. His Profile name fireball 2011 is similar to Profile name osaka 2011 on BlackPlanet.com, created with the same e-mail address [email protected] (the same e-mail address for Tagged, Facebook and Zorpia)

Take notice that he graduated from different Universities, lives in different cities at the same time and he doesn’t know how old he is…
:laugh-s:

It is a DIFFERENT FACE of SCAM, but however this is a SCAM!

Yes, he DOESN'T HIDE REAL FACE it’s true, but he gets money for any reason from women much older, than he is … His behaviour and scenario of the scam on the first chat is typical for a scammer: needing money urgently for some reason… then getting the money and disappearing…

I think it is necessary to add some information to this subject. He has inflitrated a scam victims help group in Face book and made admin. Subsequently this scam was revealed. He has been grooming past victims successfully and has visited several of them. The claim that it is not a scam was unsustainable and the excuse was he was actually forced to accept money by the victim. I quote this line
joshua quaye-larbi: i have told you that no one can take me away from you as i have toid u

[29-03-2013 11:00:35] joshua quaye-larbi: wanted to give u surprise coming to you baby
[29-03-2013 11:02:36] xxxxx: but she cannot get in love without you have told her that you love her, and i have been told that she still writes a lot on your wall
[29-03-2013 11:05:54] joshua quaye-larbi: i have not promised anyone here....and many other women has done these before and i did not respond and they stopped..you are the only one that i have and cannot tell someone again that i love her,,please you are my only lover here..baby..as her she can write whatever she wants ...and i know she will stop it one day
[29-03-2013 11:07:28] joshua quaye-larbi: i geleted some women like xxxxx's and others but eventually they tell different stories to people that i said to them that i love them which is not true...because they are forcing me
[29-03-2013 11:08:04] joshua quaye-larbi: thats why i have decided not to respond to anyone here so thatr they can stop when they are tired

So all those women are now liars? Seems they are all forcing him!
Worse is to come because he has dreamed up a scheme to raise money to get the 3 group admins (Himself and a person also from Ghana who runs an internet cafe used by scammers ) on a trip to Ghana to visit Police and Cafes and get scammers arrested. Of course for those past victims this must seem attractive, however (aside from being dangerous for the third admin who comes from Sweden and has sucked into this tale) This is just a variation of a money recovery scam. Of course no one can be arrested and nothing will be done. The whole thing is a lie invented by the two scammers and unsurprisingly he is the treasurer.

Iam so much sad when i was told by a friend of my my pictures being posted on your site as a scammer,please i am not a scammer,this is the fact of the case...Iwas a friend to one woman called XXXXX from Denmark,somewhere in october last year,she came to me in Italy to spend 3 days with me over here...and early this year,she had wanted me to come and live with in denmark,i told her about the expiring of my documents therefore she offered to help me with 280 euros to have it renewed,Please,during the procees of the renewal,she called me on phone that her children had opoosed to my coming because she was once scammed by a scammer of an amount of 50,000.00 euros therefore they not going to allowing anybody to enter into their home,then i suggested with her that she can come to Italy to me if she likes,but she still not accepting me suggestion and i am also afraid to go to her in Denmark because i would not know the consequence since she is a woman and every misfortunate will favour her...then we kept on communicating on phones and text messages..still she was not accepting my suggestion that i am living alone in Italy therefore she could come to me instead...upon refusal to go to her home then she became annoyed and deleted me and blocked me as well....i have never scammed her as she was claiming therefore i am appealing to your outfit to delete my pictures both steve crabys and joshua quaye larbi as a branded scammers.Thank you for your co-operation

The scammer above is part of a scheme posted in the Facebook group that wants to collect money from victims, he is actually the treasurer. The idea is that he and others will go to Ghana and with the help of Ghana police the scammers can be tracked down in the internet cafes and then arrested. Of course we know this is utter rubbish and this is nothing short of a recovery scam. Of course the scammers are paying the Police far more graft money to be safe than these people can afford to have them arrested. Corruption is very much the name of the game.
One of the aides in this con is one Fox Adeyemi an internet cafe owner in Cape Verde who has infiltrated the same Facebook group and is going the rounds with the victims. He was actually an Admin! He was in contact with someone for a period of time. One photo starts the tracking chain.

he asked me to send him some protein powder for his body building. which would have cost a few hundred dollars. He blocked me when he found I did not and would not send him any money or powder when his so called cyber café was broken into and a lot of laptops and Xboxes were taken if that was at all true. I think he was upset when I did not offer to send money to help him out

A lot of the e mails or what e mails he sent me were all copy pasted and he was suppose to have been a journalist, that was a joke, and he also said that he was kicked out of the UK that would have been about 20-22 yrs ago.
