I do not know how to express the conflicting emotions that have surged like a storm through my heart all night long. I only know that first and foremost in all my thoughts has been the glorious confirmation you gave me last night - without effort, unconsciously, of course - of all I have ever thought of your mind and heart.
You have the greatest soul, the noblest nature, the sweetest, most loving heart I have ever known, and my love and admiration for you have increased so much since we’ve known each other that it still amazes me.
You are more wonderful and lovely in my eyes than you ever were before; and my pride and joy and gratitude that you should love me with such a perfect love are beyond all expression.

I too was romanced by a man claiming to be in the United States Army, Sgt. Matthew Johnson. There truly is a Sgt. Matthew Johnson, but he was killed in Afghanistan. This man, of whom I have pictures,(I need to learn how to upload pictures for I have many of several romance scammers out there and I want them to be seen!) It is amazing when one is so very fragile and vulnerable how easily you can become drawn and comforted by their words of undying love. That is what I was looking for, and hoping for, and I did not educate myself first to the dangers of online dating. My sons tried to warn me, but I just knew that love was out there somewhere for me in cyberspace...never found the love...certainly found the scammers!

We communicated for several months and he was very good at what he was doing. He would talk to me about what combat was like, what it felt like to be responsible for the lives of so many men and woman, knew the military lingo and oh, the love lingo too. Once, he felt he had my love and my confidence, he asked if he could have a courier bring sensitive documents to me where I lived. He said that being in the military his mail would be checked and these docs would be confiscated. He said he would soon be retiring and that a Middle Eastern company wanted to hire him after he retired and that he wanted me to accept these documents for him. He even had the courier contact me. He also said that the courier would not take his money until he returned back to the states so that he could pay him "he is so generous and kind and he wants to help us my love"...I don't know where my head was.

The courier began telling me how much it was costing him at each destination that he arrived. I immediately informed him that if he intended on asking me for money upon his arrival that I would contact the local police authorities. We were going to meet a local cafe.

Once I informed him, Mic Anderson ([email protected] <[email protected]>), of this he said that he would contact Mr. Matthews and tell him he was no longer coming to meet me to bring the documents since I did not trust him and how could I do this madam!? After this, I never heard from "Sgt. Mattew Johnson again.

I wish I knew how to post pics at this moment but I want to get my stories online asap and then add the pictures. As I said he goes by Sgt. Matthew Johnson and uses the email [email protected]. I met him on match.com as I did with all the scammers I encountered save for one...who found me on facebook.

Thank you for reading and any imput or information I am willing to receive. At this moment I am exhausted for I have made a report to the FBI, Match.com, checking out websites, and subscribed to this site and that was just for one scammer whom I have not yet posted on this site. I hope we can all help each other. It is a sorry thing to use a person's sad and lonely heart for another's gain...thank you.

Welcome to Scamwarners, thegirlinpink!
I'm really sorry to read that you've been in contact with the scammer using the name Sgt. Matthew Johnson, but very happy to hear that you didn't lose any money.
I hope that you will educate yourself to learn how to "investigate" people who you meet online. Learn how to trace the IP address from their emails, to see where the message was sent from. There are a couple of email companies that strip this address and some of the smarter scammers have tricks that they use to hide their true location, but overall, tracing the IP , is a good start. In my sig are instructions for finding the headers, which is where the IP address is found, and a link for the site on which to trace them. The third link is instructions for posting photos. :D

Dear Helen,

Thank you so very much for your reading my post and for your words of welcome, support and comfort. I also greatly appreciate the links that you posted for me. I know they will all be of great help. Today has been quite an unsettling day for me and just knowing that someone is there to read what you share helps to put the unsettled pieces back together. I shall be posting my other stories. I have four more, yes, four! The one most difficult for me, I am hoping to post tomorrow. Sadly, I allowed him to drain me emotionally, to break my heart, and to this one, Jean Fredrico, I did send money. Although, my story with him is very painful for me, it must be shared. Shared for those with hurting hearts, those who have loved a scammer, those who lost money or property to a scammer by using love, and for all of us who need to heal from this emotional kick to the heart...I hope I can help someone with my posts to heal and to be scammer free for the remainder of life. For I know that the one's that I have encountered are still out there doing their scammer thing on the internet. Let us hope we can put a stop to as many as we can...
Thank you...thegirlinpink

The documents from the US Army are horribly obvious fakes, and why are they always photo shopped so poorly and have only half the name on them...these scammers are stoooopid....I love stringing them along then dropping hints that they are the ones being scammed..they get so mad, and the phone numbers i give them the last time i contact them are usually the number of the govt agency they are portraying...the threats I get are Hilarious
