Devon James - Nigerian Scammer

Here is a letter from a reader to warn you about Devon James, another Nigerian scammer.
Here is the email:

Hi I was on a dating sight and just by chance I said to this guy you should change your profile picture as the first one wasn’t as nice, this is how it all started. He was had me fall in love with him from the start. I have reported this to the sight as he had to pay by credit card but I know they will not give me this information. He said he was an "I work as an freelance auto technician,i do consulting,managerial,supervision and contract jobs for auto companies who requires my services,i am pretty much fulfilled in my job and i enjoy what i do. “


There are so many emails and messages to go through of the love he had for me and I saved him and I was his world, and I had fallen for it all... this is just some of it. What a night mare I am glad it’s over. I have lost my money but I still have my kids and health, it’s hard moving on but you know you just have to check it off as a hard lesson learned.

Here are some of his email, there are hundreds as we chatted for over a month

Dear xxx,

What a wonderful beginning to a new year! It began late in the previous year -- me finding you, chatting online, confessing my love, and then it happens all over again. The feelings that I’ve felt for you all along begin to resurface. Only this time, I am free to act on them without fear of upsetting anyone.
Thank you. What more can a man say to the woman who opened her heart to him, allowing him to feel the warmth of her love across the great distance that separates them? You truly have no idea what I feel for you.
I try to put this feeling into words, but fail miserably. This feeling of being both scared and at peace, of having both butterflies and a sense of calm, is a feeling that I have only dreamed about. As the days continue to pass, my love for you continues to grow. I never thought I had the capacity to love anybody as much as I love you right now. Yet, my love for you continues to mature, growing beyond the realm of my heart. It seems that you have become the fiber of my soul, the very reason for my existence.
I have no other words to describe the way you make me feel. No words, no actions could even come close. I believe that Ronald Regan said it best to Nancy in a letter, telling her only that, "I more than love you". Their love was a strong love, surviving everything, even death. I believe that even after his passing, Nancy felt Ronald's love for her raining down upon her. That is why she has always seemed at peace after the death of such a truly loving husband. That is the love that I feel for you.

Always yours to cherish,

I love you.Happy new year's eve.

Devon

Dear xxx,

I know we've been busy lately with work and what not. I wanted to send you this letter to let you know that I'm thinking of you and love you very much. I'm very lucky to have such a wonderful woman and I wanted to say thank you for changing my life.

Before you came along, I felt empty inside. You filled an empty void in my heart and I can never thank you enough for loving me unconditionally.

xxx, I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I want to wake up to you every morning. I want to hear you breathing while you're sleeping. You make my life complete and you make me feel like I can touch the sky a million times. You make me laugh and sometimes so hard I cry.

I feel blessed that God sent you to me as a precious gift. I can't wait until my work schedules change soon therefore we can spend more time together.

xxx, thank you for loving me completely with your heart and soul.

Love always,

Devon.

Reader Warns those of you in Colorado and Washington State!

A reader sent us this email to warn those of you in Colorado and Washington State:
My daughter (40) decided to try internet dating for the first time. She went on a well-respected site, posted a profile and was immediately contacted by what appeared to be a nice, responsible, all around good guy. He is foreign (German) and claims he has difficulty with English but trying to learn the language ( the reason I'm using present tense I will explain later). Recently divorced, three jobs, ranch in Colorado, loves horses (her line of work). Then he proceeded to tell her stories of heroic acts that he recently performed. "Saving a US Marine family lost in the wilderness inspite of falling with his horse, killing the horse and severely injuring himself. He still managed to drag himself and rescue the whole family", just one of many. Because of all his heroic actions, he was made an honorary US Marine. She bought all his stories, he had such an unpresumptuous way of telling them. War Hero, everybody loves him, etc. etc. etc. Within days he told her he loved her (even though they hadn't even met) and wanted to meet as soon as possible. One week later he showed up on her doorstep, using his advanced computer skills to get her address and phone #. For just a split second when she went to greet him the first timeshe describes a weird look in his eyes (she described it as insanity) then it was gone. He moved right in on her, convincing her he couldn't live without her now that he had found her. Slowly she began finding little inconsistencies in his stories, his behavior became abusive, especially if questioned about anything. He began showing cruelty to her pets, everything on the red flag list. He threatens suicide or threatens to kill her on a regular basis when she has tried to leave . He has ruined her business, ran off any friends (most are afraid of him). She is now in hiding, waiting for legal actions to be taken against him. Hopefully he will soon be deported so that she can once again walk in the daylight without fear that he will harm her or her loved ones. It will take years for her to repair the damage he accomplished in 8 short months. This story is current and as yet unfinished, he's still there in the shadows until he is caught and charged for his crimes. He is once again trawling the internet for another victim to "save" him. The purpose of this is to warn others out there to be very careful, there is a monster hiding behind the screen waiting for you to give him the opportunity to harm you. A general discription; frequents Military and Equestrian dating sights, German (not US citizen), heavy accent, poor english. Middle 40's, medium build, 5' 8"-6', reddish hair (always severe military cut), ruddy complexion, blue-grey eyes, wears glasses, tattoos, hangs out at Starbucks, chain smoke's little cigars, spends most of his time on computers (extremely skilled, tech savy,hacks for fun), like's anything military (very interested in guns), military imposter w/uniforms and war stories just one of several costumes, cowboy, Search & Rescue. Has victims in Colorado and Washington State.

Gary Moore - Nigerian Scammer

Here is an email sent in by a reader to warn all of you about a Nigerian scammer going by the name Gary Moore:
Hi!

I was once a victim of internet scam.

I recieved a message asking me to add him in FB last sept.2011. He claimed that my name pops up when he does searching. He claimed to be an American man from Long Beach , Ca., the photo used was of a man whom any woman will gonna fall for and that was happened to me. I was at my vulnerable moments when i saw his message. He even call me thru a US number (+13234120103), he is a good player...after 3 weeks he said he will be going to UK to do business. He claimed that he is an Engineer, a contractor for oilwell, head installation and repair, and claimed to be connected to exxon mobil. He even called when he is in UK(called me with this number: +447045720405), the business failed in Uk so he needs to go to Nigeria, because the products for oil matters are cheaper there......... so many lies which was played well in short he has been asking for help as his credit card not working in warri, delta state, then stolen, i was unsuspecting that he is a scammer because he sounds seems to be real, not only me but even my aunt was also scammed.. because we just want to help a person in need.. i started to noticed that something was wrong when he has been asking me money every 3 weeks, until the time when he said he needs to get back to US soon but he does not have ticket as he only bought one way, i shared the story to my aunt who is very kind, her heart went out with him and tried to wire 15oo USD thru Western Union and her SSN where asked , she gone through a lot of trouble, until an anonymous person from western Union with Nigerian accent called her that trnsfer was cancelled and she has to get back the money anytime no charge and was informed that we might be dealing with a scammer.. thats the start. He didn't recive the money, was so upset i referred him to US embassy in Abuja, He sounds real when he told me that they got him a ticket. sends me a copy as well, but on his transit in UK he was picked up due to tax matters. He has many mishaps, What a very unfortunate person , seems so real... that the time i started reading the advisory from US embassy, I even wrote to the US mission embassy in Abuja , there i realized that he is not real. I searched online according to the pages he wrote in his profile and i found him in one date using profile name luv3333. The photo he used is very attractive, so handsome but he is not real.... I thank your team for giving these info, though i was left with debt and broken heart, Im doing my best to move on, and share my story. I hope it could save others and make them aware that scammers are good players.

This is about scammer gary moore (garymoore22@yahoo.com/luv3333).

Christian Adams - Another Scammer busted!

I recieved this email from a reader regarding a scammer named Christian (Chris) Adams. here is the email and details:

Hi, I have recently found your site & was blown away by the things men have said in their emails. Also the names they call you like queen & angel...this sounds so much like the man I have been chatting with online since 2nd July 2011.

christianoadams67@yahoo.com & christianoadams@yahoo.com

He claims he was born in Deer Park Vic Australia, but lived most of his life in Rockhampton QLD Australia. Australian born Mother from Perth WA & father Italian, both deceased & has a son 21yrs old, but does not live with him, divorced. First he contacted me on Plenty Of Fish Australia & then moved quickly to Yahoo Mail then IM. (his profile was removed after he contacted me) He was on Facebook & has several photos, I have copies but the profile has been removed now. Claims he is in love & has a long story...he was hospitalized in California with Type 2 diabetes... but many complications. (By the way this has been going on for months) Being sick in different hospitals, had to have an operation and even though I was Never asked for money...the hints were there. Had a bad habit of disappearing for nearly 2 weeks at a time. Unreachable! Said he was unable to contact me because he was in the hospital & Lost his mobile somewhere & no money to call me.

He said that he was in California on business (was bidding on a contract for construction machinery) & had been living in the UK where he has a property up for sale! (cannot get the money for the sale of his property until March 2012) Gave me a phone number in California 001114158529860. I have only ever managed once to get through to him & he had a very strong accent...Not Italian. Then a man called dickson_idahosa@yahoo.com was trying to contact me on IM. I had blocked him as I did not know who he was. Then I got an email said he had been trying to contact me in regards to Chris. He was back in another hospital & if I knew any of his friends or relatives here in Australia...as he needed help to get back home and he had huge bills there in the states. Dickson had a sister Carmen Bodie & asked if I could send money in her name (Western union) I did send $200 STUPID ME...as I believed he was very ill.

Then nothing again for 13 days & I checked his facebook page & he had pics on there that he was in Kuala Lumpur. STORY IS: The USA Doctors would not treat him anymore because he owes money & cannot pay, So was taken by a Doctor Carroll Godemen back to Kuala Lumpur to his own hospital there, as he agreed to help him get back on his feet. (but he is holding his passport until all the bills are paid back in the states) So apparently he is living in the Drs private quarters. He is desperately trying to get back to Australia & needs help! I would like to know if others know of this man or recognize his photos?

Rose Dosi - Nigerian Scammer

Here is yet another email from an obvious Nigerian scammer that said she found me on a dating site online:


Dear friend,

I am more than happy in your reply to my mail, how is your day today i hope all is well and fine with you including your health and job. My name is Miss Rose Dosi and i am 24 years, single and never been married, i am from Sudan in Africa but presently residing in the missionary church here in Senegal where i ran as a refuge due to the political civil war that took place in my country. I am in sufferings and pains here in this camp, i really need help from someone by encouraging me and good advice in life and to help me to come out from this situation, again to help me get my money, because my late father deposited some amount of money for me in the Bank and he used my name as the next of kin.

My late father Dr. Ellison Dosi, worked as the Chief Executive Officer of (E E C PLC) in Port Sudan in Sudan. During the war, the rebel loyal to one of the greedy business associate of my late father attacked our house one early morning and killed my mother and father in a cold blood. It is only me that is alive now as the only child of my parents and i managed to make my way to this country Senegal by the help of UN army where i am living now in the missionary, headed by a Reverend Father, i used his office computer to send you this email and i only enter his office when he is less busy in his office.

I would like to know more about you, your likes, dislikes, your hobbies and what you are doing presently. i like to meet understanding, loyal, sincere, truthfully, kindly, friendly and more to that, a man of vision. Attached here is my picture.

Nevertheless, I don't have any relatives now that i can go to, all my relatives ran away in the middle of the war and there is no contact, the only person i have now is Rev.Father who is heading the missionary. He has been very good to me since i came here but l am not living with him, l am living in the women quarter.

Please i will like you to call me through the Rev.father's phone number (+221778463094) as you call, tell the Rev.Father that you wish to speak with me, definitely he will send for me in the refugee hostel. Regarding my condition here as a refugee, i don't have any right or privilege to anything be it money or whatever because it is contrary to the law of this country.

I want to go back to my studies because i only stopped at my first year before the tragic war that cause to my being in this situation now took place. Honey i really believe in face to face, i like to meet you in your country but there is know way i will be coming to your country now, i need to have my (International passport) before i can be coming to your country.

Dear friend, everything is money, i will offer you 15% (percent) of the total money for compensation immediately after the transfer. Please l would like you to know that l have my late father's death certificate here with me which l will like to send to you to assist me, because when he was alive he deposited sum amount of money with a Bank which he used my name as the next of kin. The amount in question is (2.750,000,00 Million British Pounds) Two million seven hundred and fifty thousand Pounds.

I will like you to assist me to transfer this money to your account and from it you will send some money for me to get my traveling documents and air ticket to come over to meet you. I can't withdraw the money my self due to some conditions of things here in this country which i am not permit to do, and the money can't be transferred here in Senegal.

I have got in touch with the bank through mail and also told them about my plans to withdraw this money,i also got them aware of the death of my father and they have acknowledged it with all they confirmation. However, the bank manager advised me to get in touch with a very responsible person who will stand on my behalf as a foreign partner/trustee over the transfer since l am presently of refugee status over here and wouldn't be permitted to handle this amount of money, they also let me know about the bonds which they signed with my father that the money will be handled to me in bulk amount which means that l should decide on if i should continue with the bank or not.

Meanwhile,i will give you the personal contact address of the bank Manager so that you will contact the bank Manager direct for his direction and guidance concerning the transfer in my next mail.

I just have to let you know about this so that you can assist me to be my trustee on this money, like l have said, l want you to call me because l have allot to tell you. l kept this secret away from people in the Missionary here, the only person that knows about it is the Reverend Father Jude Williams because he is like a father to me.

Have a nice day and think about me. Dear friend , this is the email address of the Reverend (reverendjudewilliams@yahoo.com) i hope to hear from you soonest.

Yours forever,
Rose Dosi.

My field is basically in Special Designing & Supervising of Road, Rail, Bridge, Water Dam, Building and Drainage construction and sometimes Electricity Power Stations, sometimes it involves me moving around sometimes but i haven't been doing a lot of that recently, since doing my own thing i have to make sure everything is in order and also keep new clients updated on projects that has been awarded and also it always majorly field work so now i'm an Entrepreneur which who owns a business based on Construction, to be specific I am a Construction Contractor/Consultant & Engineer. I work my own hours and very flexible and hard working. My job mainly involves working with clients handling agencies now. I would also say i am someone who is bright, positive, understanding, kind, caring, grounded with a nice smile, good listener, affectionate and wonderful companion, I also don't look my age as i have been told. I grew up almost everywhere because my father served in the army and also lived in Ireland for some years, also in 4 different cities,3 before i got married and finally settled down in Adelaide after my wife died. I'm Irish descendant, I even have some relatives back at Ireland. My Father was a proud Irish man while my mother was Australian. I am a Christian and i attend church once a week and i believe in God. Your Spirituality, Belief or Religion doesn't matter to me, like i said i have am open minded. I was born and raised a christian and it has always been a major part of me. Catholic to be precise, my beliefs are, Family, God & everything else.

I have daughter, who's 27yrs old, born deaf.. but she had a very good education, in fact she went to normal high school and everything. She teaches sign language part-time now at a local school around, we're planning on enrolling her into college to get her teaching degree and start her own life properly.

We are also checking for hearing aids/plugs, she should be be able to qualify for an implant in a couple of weeks. I was married for 26yrs and it was a very pleasant, bumpy, loving and most of all i am proud to say blissful marriage and i still miss her very much. My late wife had Breast Cancer,stage 3 but she died in a Car Crash, she was the victim. She used to be a teacher too and also a principal, also i have been widowed for 6yrs now. Wow! I really have said a lot about my life, i usually don't talk or write this much about myself to anyone. I am hoping you are someone who is growth oriented,trust worthy and sincere, personal, anyway, that's it about what i do and me. I hope i find the right person that can connect with me and i can find honest and true happiness with, although all those have been pressures into dating someone and also finding the love of my life and the queen of my heart. I have been alone too long to try and not planning to make any odd assumptions of finding the right one or fool around with people online, that's why i tend to start by getting to know you more and also understanding each other and hopefully, something beautiful would happen from there. I am interested in getting to know more about you, Your Past relationship? How long you've been single? What kind of man and relationship you want???

I have dated before, it just wasn't towards what i had hoped for, that is why i have to be sure and certain i am doing the right thing, because it didn't turned out as much as i had hoped for.. I am looking forward to getting to know you, up close and personal, i mean getting to know more of you and establishing a good friendship and hopefully grow into something more beautiful. I hope this does not scare you away, basically that's the most about me i can think of for now and you will probably know more when we continue exchanging e-mails, now its your turn to tell me about yourself. You can ask me any questions if you would like to know more about me alright. I also attached some pictures hope you like them.

Waiting to read back from you soon.
