Reverse image search

Hi
I've also been scammed, and then I discovered I can do a reverse image search on Google.
So I traced the profile pic that was used to the owner on Facebook.
Other than that, I've also traced this profile pic to other dating websites, and reporting him where ever I can.

So please, if you can do yourselves a favour and reverse image search the images of people who are contacting you. Also, Google Nigerian dating scam & romance scams, and get yourselves familiar with the strategy they are using. Report them immediately if you suspect anything. So far, I haven't been wrong when reporting a possible scammer.

It's a pitty, we only learn from our mistakes. But we can try and warn people about this.

Welcome to ScamWarners kastelein. I am sorry you were scammed. It is great that you learned and are sharing from your experience to help others. That is the spirit of what our site is here to do.

Hi Gerry, you can go to https://www.google.co.uk/imghp?hl=en&tab=wi and upload your image. However, I guess that it would only show results from social network sites if the user has allowed their details to be public. I'm guessing even scammers aren't that dumb.

I could be wrong about all of this, however
