He said he was a Football scout and traveled at least once a year for work. He was sweet, caring got my attention. <br />I met him on Mingles2, I feel stupid now after almost 5 weeks of chatting by text and calling him on the phone to let it go that long.<br />There were many signs but my heart was attached and I didnt want to believe it was a scam.<br />Shortly after we started talking, (about a week) he wanted to go off the site and chat private.<br />He then said he had to go meet a football club person from Nigeria who was flying to OH to meet him. The next day he said he was going to Nigeria for a month to work on getting 10 players for this club. <br />We keep texting and chatting. I spoke on the phone about 2 week in and my first impression was that something wasnt right. He has a very strong accent. An accent that doesnt match the pictures he sent me. <br />Then after another week he was already saying he loved me and calling me baby, sweetheart, and hun. I still didnt want to believe it, even after I was wondering why his profile said he was from LA, Califorina, but he told me he was from Akron, OH. <br />He excuse for that was that he used to live in LA and moved to OH after his divorce.<br />So I keep talking to him.<br />Then he sent me some pictures (and being the person I am, I google serched them), findng of course this site (http://www.romancescam.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=62815). Questioned him on this and his reply was that his facebook was hacked last year (which he had mentioned in earlier chats), and that this site was from that.<br />Again I keep chatting with him, falling more and more for him.<br />Finally, he was set to come in only a week to finally meet me and stay for a visit. But I was feeling so uneasy that I insisted on him sending me a picture of him and his son.<br />After 3 days of bugging fore a picture he finally sent me a picture, (that I goggle searched) and ofcourse it was a photo shopped picture. <br />This is the very short story. There are som many more details and things about him that are great sounding and also unesy about him.<br />You can also check this site for more pictures of him (http://www.romancescam.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=51587&p=436685#p436685)<br /><br />BEWARE!NoNamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01741168386886528782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588440722465221130.post-73956033396258379722015-04-16T15:19:28.500-07:002015-04-16T15:19:28.500-07:00Has anyone ever heard of a man called Paul Smith P...Has anyone ever heard of a man called Paul Smith Philips, he says he's from Ohio.

The name he gave me is Abraham Truman, claims he is a widower (wife died of diabetes), only child, with an adopted daughter now 5, who lives with his sister in law in St. Petersburg, Russia. Claims his father was a road engineer who built roads in Dubai as well as S. Africa. He claims to be a timber trader who has overextended himself and needs $250K. His accomplices are an "attorney" named Raphael Rufus (the local bar association has no license number matching that name) and a purported worker at Lagos port where Abraham's timber awaits shipment to Indonesia, Derick Ibeh. Abraham claims to have lived in Colorado, owned an organic farm in Canada, and homes in L.A. and Pomona, CA, all of which he sold to invest in his "timber logs" business. Last had contact with him in Oct. 2010. He was on PerfectMatch. Uses photos of a 6.4" man in tailored suit with Rolex watch prominently displayed, as well as two other photos of himself with brunette girl. He has close cropped brown hair and blue eyes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588440722465221130.post-46055861581018827592010-05-29T17:25:05.106-07:002010-05-29T17:25:05.106-07:00I have just stopped having contact with a Dutchman...I have just stopped having contact with a Dutchman in Nigeria (or so he said). He was called Henry Henk Thomas and supposingly had a son called Michael. I have sent him money too but have finally admitted to MYSELF that he had me on a piece of string. The problem is we (us women) I think are looking for affection and when we hear nice words and receive beautiful emails well we fall head over heels.

Well I tried but then I started searching the web found him and the other people he scamed. Now my friend is at lost and I wish our TV shows CNN etc... would just keep viewing this I feel the best way to shut this down is by making the Americans aware of this and NOT send anymore money and this will shut these jerks down.

Turns out that after less than a week of conversing with him, he solicited me for $1600 to help him pay for the players, and then dropped his asking price down to $700, both of which I didn't pay. I didn't fall for his scam but beware, his yahoo personals id is gabaaron069 and his profile name is Aaron. He has got some professional pictures up there of someone other than him. Funny thing is that his profile stated he was from one city and then a few days later, he was from another city. He even told me the wrong birthday which was different than the one listed in his profile.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588440722465221130.post-924689941503990032009-10-01T04:45:26.753-07:002009-10-01T04:45:26.753-07:00I also lost a lot of money to a man who claim to w...I also lost a lot of money to a man who claim to work in nigeria, have been dating for 10 month and he can see me on cam but he has an excuse not having cam.
