I have been chatting with someone online both in Yahoo and Tagged his Tagged name is Handy C and is Yahoo address is [email protected]
He said he is deployed to Afghanistan and after chatting with him for 2 days he said he wanted to phone chat with me but he wasnt allowed cell phones because of security reasons and I had to write to the military at this address and this is what he told me to say
I never sent the email, but told him I did, then I got a reply from the "military department" telling me I needed to send $350 US by Western Union to an address in Romania. I knew all along that he was a Scammer but I played him along. When I told him that I was onto him and that he would have to go sing for his money he told me I was a bloody liar and a Fool. ( I wonder who really is the Fool) I have reported him to Tagged and Yahoo but at the time of writing this email nothing has been done about him. I cannot attach his photo but am happy to forward them to anyone that requests them I Hope this is a warning to other people. These people need to be stopped.
