I recently met a "USAF" Msgt om Mingle2 "Smile4Mile50"...he kept writing to me on my Yahoo account....He said he was from Boston, MA and even sent me pics of him and his 2 children.I got suspicious when he started asking me to send him a cell phone and a laptop for a friend of hisdur that took a bullet for in during his 1st trip to Iraq. The items were for his friend's daughter. Of course I refused.Then he actually ask me to send him $4000 by Western Union because he was "deploying" from Kabul and going to Ghana to purchase things to open a jewelry business here in the U.S....I kept refusing until he got all the way down to asking for $500...long story short....he CONFESSED to me last week that he was not a U>S> soldier but lived in Ghana and needed the money for a Visa...he said he was in love with me and that he was sorry he lied to me...he keeps calling me and I have emailed him asking him not to contact me in any form. He even sent me flowers and candy to my job. I felt so betrayed and silly when I found out how much I actually was lied to.
But thank God I was not stupid enough to send him a cent!! I feel for whomever was scammed by Alex Jordan.
