Hey, new here.

https://badoo.com/0348738135/ and uses the nickname Icare
Scott Chapman (British, from London)
Says he is in Lashkar Gah Afghanistan.

Just Skype talking, no email. Got a phone call today from him, static and bad connection. Not so British accent (I've lived there for years, I know the accents). Sounded suspiciously like a black person btw.
I asked about the accent, he said his mum is from Malta and he picked up the accent from her and looks from dad. I don't know if Maltese people are non-white but the dude in the pics look like very white to me and his age 37 seems a bit old for the pics he has on Badoo.com (I saved them on my computer).
His mum and dad were killed in an accident and he is the only child. I asked when he is able to go to his friends next time - said here's no friends (????). [14:30:33] Scott Chapman: Well i lost my parents both in a gasline motor accident (WTF is that anyway???)

Snippet(s) of the Skype convos:

[14:50:09] xxxxx: where in britain are you from because I didn't regognise your accent?
[14:50:46] Scott Chapman: OK... i was born in Bradford.. but my mother is from Malta and my dad is from the UK
[14:50:55] Scott Chapman: so i got my accent kind of from my mother and my look from my dad

[15:08:40] Scott Chapman: can you copy the link of your profile for me on facebook?
[15:08:45] xxxxx: ok I will
[15:09:04] xxxxx: https://www.facebook.com/xxxxxx
[15:11:15] Scott Chapman: I can not open baby i think it has been blocked by our administrator here
[15:11:25] xxxxx: hmmmmm

He didn't remember his Facebook account url (just log in, dummy??)

YET: I searched by is name and.....
[15:15:22] xxxxx: is your profile pic in a snowy place with a green parka on?
[15:15:38] Scott Chapman: send me the profile so i can see
[15:15:44] Scott Chapman: i mean the link
[15:16:21] xxxxx: https://www.facebook.com/xxxxxx (WOW now the Faceook works :P )
[15:16:49] Scott Chapman: That is not me baby
[15:17:21] xxxxx: Why can't you open my profile
[15:17:45] xxxxx: or why can't you just go to the top of the page and write my name xxxxxxxx there?
[15:18:12] Scott Chapman: wait or can we do this later baby??
[15:18:28] xxxxxx: ok you have to go to do military stuff now?
[15:18:43] Scott Chapman: No baby lets talk about something else and not facebook


[21:14:04] xxxxx: You should be here. xxxxxxxxxxxxxx blah blah
[21:15:38] Scott Chapman: Yeah but i can not leave if you do not apply for a military permit for me
[21:16:03] xxxxx: what is a military permit?
[21:16:25] Scott Chapman: it is like a license a soldier can get during mission to be allowed to leave the camp
[21:24:01] Scott Chapman: can you apply for a military permit for me?
[21:24:18] xxxx: if you tell me how
[21:24:57] xxxx: AND if you truly are the person in the pics and truly Scott Chapman and have been honest with me all the time
[21:25:45] Scott Chapman: What do you meean by that??
[21:26:14] xxxxx: I'm sorry hon, my own insecurities and don't want to get hurt any more
[21:26:32] xxxxx: I'm sorry
[21:26:42] xxxxx: I don't mean anything bad
[21:28:09] xxxxx: How do I apply the permit? Is there some basic form like on the net that has to be filled or what?
[21:31:40] xxxxx: about the insecurity, I know it is in my head because I've been hurt too many times and there's a lot of talk about some weird Nigerian scammers who say that they need money for the permit
[22:04:10] Scott Chapman: DO not worry
[22:05:55] Scott Chapman: i will go now
[22:06:08] xxxx: ok but I need the info about the permit asap
[22:06:19] Scott Chapman: I SAID NO
[22:06:25] xxxx: what?
[22:06:59] xxxx: what's going on

---------
Then he deleted me from Skype contacts and won't take me back. I sent him a request at Badoo that "what the hell is going on"
Then I started digging up the net reverse img search didn't bring up anything. And found this site.

I also found this site: http://www.cid.army.mil/romance_scam.html but I don't know how does it apply for (fake?) British soldiers.

-------

Please advice. The love of my life broke up with me just over a month ago and I am sensitive still, and I don't need this kind of crap in my life now.

Recent development just now on Badoo:
Icare — 23:18
You do not have to be sad
Icare — 23:41
i did what i feel was right
xxxxx — 23:48
hon did I do something wrong?

NO ANSWER.

Although it was written about the US military, the key points are the same. Both military structures are built on the same basic premise of the chain of command.

You would NEVER apply for a military permit (or leave, phone, or anything else) for a British soldier. A real British soldier would apply internally through his chain of command, and you would have nothing to do with it.

The man on the phone sounded black because he IS black. Both the general pattern of the scam and the scammer's writing tell me that you are dealing with an African scammer.

As for the man in the photos? The scammer doesn't know him--he just stole his photos off the internet. If he looks it, he probably is much younger than the 37 years the scammer claims--the scammers don't know anything about the real people in the photos, and they routinely make major mistakes in guessing age, height, weight, nationality, and eye and hair color. I've seen them as far as 15 years off on age, and they can be off by 50% or more on height, weight, etc. But we never point these things out to the scammers, as we don't want to help them to improve their scams.

As for Badoo, it is absolutely loaded with scammers, and the "verified" status doesn't add ANY assurance that the person is real.

Please post the email address/yahoo ID this scammer is using, and just cut off all contact with him.

RECENT NEWS:
In Badoo, he is now a removed user. I told on him to the mods there. Ha!

Fierce! You went after him. If you had any questions before, that pretty much sealed it. Love it, calling you a slot and spoilt. Looks like you enjoyed the battle and shut him down. :lol:

Also, sent this thread as an email to
Report the fraud to the Federal Trade Commission on Nigerian Scams.
Email: [email protected]

Next, it's going to be Filing a Complaint with the IC3

What an ass.

He tried to send something via Skype again (or in my case Kopete, for I am a Linux nerd, you see) and I suspect it is his artistic photo of my face on someone's lady-pars. I'm not that kind of a woman who sends my own pussy pics to any random people.

Anyways, he does know my phone number and my full name but there's nothing he can find out or do with that info - I work in a field that I have to have secret number and only officials (like police etc) can find out my address. And hey, if he wants to come here to "talk", welcome. I'm not afraid.

He will continue to threaten you to get a reaction. Just ignore him. They like to sound like they'd come after us but they wouldn't take the money to travel here. He's sounds like a really nasty type. Some have been known to try blackmail when women have sent personal pictures and that makes it even uglier. You must have made his life really inconvenient and that's great revenge.
