Then his parent inheratence Hesaid he was afraid he'd lose it if he didn't put in my account, An Ipod for his ten year old daughterThis was almsot sent til I found out he was wanted by the police.He wanted to put it in my bank account I kept telling him Icouldn't do it My parent would know we were still together.
He said he was in trouble with this organazation NBAthat sent him to Nigeria They were cutting there funds from him He was asked to steal Diamonds He couldn't.He said it was a secret I had to keep ,for safety for his ten year old daughter Mary Johnson. He said we were being followed he could keep control over me.
Iwrote a letter to The American EMBASSY in Nigeria to help get him out. It was causing major problems at home and My counselor at the College I worked at said they would do a back ground check.
Ifound out he was wanted by the police .Six mos. after I was followed still He warn me never to go to the police they will never believe you.Our last words was he "Hated me" I feared he take me from my family as he promised.I still fear if my gaurds are down he will come after me.

Hi jesusofsh and welcome to ScamWarners. I'm so sorry to hear about what happened to you. Thank you for coming here to post the information for others to find. It is brave and kind of you to do so.

I don't think you need to worry about him hurting you. Those are idle threats he is making to scare you. His comments about you being followed are as well. Did you ever see anyone following you?

If you have not already done so, please report this to your local police. Also, be aware of recovery scams. Anyone who contacts you, supposedly from an agency that claims to be able to help you catch him or recover your money is the SAME scammer or his accomplices trying to further scam you. Please do feel free to post any suspicious emails here and we will give you advice.

Take care and heal your heart.

Hi and welcome to Scamwarners,

I hate to say it but part of the reason you were scammed is because you are so trusting and caring, love scammers rely on their victims to have those charactoristics and unfortunately you are not alone.

All to often we hear about cases just like yours which helps to keep us motivated while serving as a warning for other potential victims.

I have taken a bit of a look through what you have posted and done the odd search or 2 to see if i could find anything on this particular scammer and I have indeed found some hits that you may be interetsed in seeing.

First is a search result on the email address Click Here it shows several profiles set up with the same username which are most likely the work of the same scammer.

If you could please post up any of the early emails that you received or any other details then I can see if I can dig anything else up for you
