Is it a scam? I tried doing the header thing, but do not understand it.

Best wishes

Welcome to Scamwarners Elle8816,

With no doubt the email is from a scammer. I can tell by his non English writing skills, poor grammar for an educated man and the script you posted.

Please post the email address of this scammer and photo's to help other women avoid him.

Bryon

The writing is clearly West African, not Swedish or any other sort of European. Byron's sig has a link to a page about headers. You should get a bunch of lines beginning "Received:", "X-Original-IP:", and the like. Post the whole thing, up to the first blank line, and we'll take a look at it.

Hi again,
Here you go. Makes no sense to me lol.
I have removed my email address, I hope.

I also have another very similar. As soon as I get onto my laptop and off a tablet I will post the photos I received, again from a contractor etc etc etc

Best wishes
Elle

Thanks. Header posted.

Thank you for posting the header. The scammer is using a service to hide his IP address. This is normal with scammers. Typical people do not pay a service to hide their IP address.

I wrote the scammer to see what I could find.
